Kristen Doute defended her friend Brittany Cartwright after Golnesa “GG” Gharachedaghi publicly speculated that Cartwright, the estranged wife of Jax Taylor, might be pregnant.
The speculation arose when a fan account shared photos of Cartwright and her new boyfriend during a recent trip to Mexico.
Gharachedaghi commented on the post, referencing Cartwright’s “belly” and writing, “No shade, but is she pregnant too? I mean, he’s holding her belly and the belly is definitely bellying.”
After seeing Golnesa “GG” Gharachedaghi’s comment, Kristen Doute, 42, sent her a direct message to confront her about publicly speculating on Brittany Cartwright’s pregnancy and commenting on her body.
In the message, which was shared in screenshots on Doute’s Instagram Story and reposted by the fan account, Doute wrote, “Why would you COMMENT on a photo of Brittany, speculating pregnancy?? As a woman and a mother, f–king disgusting.”
The mother of one stood firmly by her words and did not hold back in her response to the Vanderpump Rules star.
Golnesa “GG” Gharachedaghi responded to Kristen Doute’s message, saying, “Bro, you keep trying to ‘come’ for me haha and I hate to say this to you, but I’m NOT the one!”
She explained her comment by pointing out the image of Cartwright’s boyfriend holding her stomach, adding, “Isn’t that what couples do when they announce they’re potentially expecting?”
Gharachedaghi, 43, acknowledged that while the photos appeared to be a “clear” pregnancy announcement to her, she didn’t know what Cartwright’s body “normally looks like” and admitted that she was “clearly wrong.”
Golnesa “GG” Gharachedaghi sent a pointed message to Kristen Doute, warning, “Now that being said, you and I are gonna have major issues, let me just make that clear.”
She added that if Doute were to “call [her] names” again, she would respond by “calling her out” with a “long list of words” about her.
Gharachedaghi also urged Doute to “try to accept God into your life,” emphasizing that while she can admit to making a mistake and apologize, their conflict had become a personal matter. She concluded with a warning: “Now it’s you and me… so buckle up buck teef.”
Kristen Doute has not responded to Golnesa “GG” Gharachedaghi’s message. Representatives for Brittany Cartwright and Doute were unavailable for comment, while Gharachedaghi’s spokesperson declined to respond.
The photos that sparked Gharachedaghi’s speculation showed Cartwright on a recent trip with her new boyfriend, Brandon Hanson, who is reportedly still married.
In the images obtained by Page Six, the couple was seen sharing affectionate moments, just days after Hanson’s wife publicly criticized their relationship online.
In a TikTok post, Brandon Hanson’s wife expressed her disapproval, writing, “He’s my husband!!! That man is married.”
However, an insider shared a different perspective exclusively with Page Six, stating that Brittany Cartwright began dating Hanson only after he and his wife had separated.
“Brittany’s new relationship comes at a time when they both are experiencing similar life changes,” the source explained on Sunday. “Like Brittany, he is going through a divorce, and he and his ex have been separated for the past seven months.”
“The two have found comfort in each other as they’ve been navigating their respective divorces and personal life changes,” the insider added.
Brittany Cartwright, a Kentucky native, shares a 4-year-old son named Cruz with Jax Taylor. The couple met while filming Vanderpump Rules alongside Kristen Doute and were married for five years before Cartwright filed for divorce in August 2024.
Golnesa “GG” Gharachedaghi gained fame on Shahs of Sunset, appearing on the reality series from its premiere in 2012 until its conclusion in 2021.
