Jax Taylor says things between him and former boss Lisa Vanderpump are not great after she did not reach out to his estranged wife, Brittany Cartwright, after giving birth to their son.
“I had an issue [with Lisa] just because I felt like I’d given my life to Vanderpump Rules,” he said on the ‘Housewives Nightcap’ podcast. “I’ve literally been an open book and I feel like Lisa and I were very very close. I’ve gone to her home and she’s broken down in front of me when she’s having issues on Housewives. I’ve broken down in front of her. I felt like we had a little bit of bond, kind of a mother-son thing.”
Jax’s Vanderpump Rules spinoff, The Valley, recently premiered on Peacock. He is currently estranged from wife Brittany. Jax was a series regular on Vanderpump Rules for eight seasons between 2013 and 2020.
“That bothered me to the core,” he added. “I could care less what people think of me. I … never have. But I know Brittany does, and it just felt like, you know, she came into … this world, the show, and gave everything she had and we have this baby and just not getting a phone call, you know, when we already try to reach out to her as much as we could. That hurt me. So that’s where I had the issue.That was my problem.”
