Jax Taylor Shares Update On His Relationship With Ariana Madix

Jax Taylor shared an update on his relationship with Ariana Madix. The two have been at odds for years. Now, he’s on #TeamAriana and slamming his former friend Tom Sandoval. Find out what he had to say about Ariana and Sandoval’s interview with Howie Mandel.

Tells Tom Sandoval to “man up”

Jax Taylor reacted to Tom Sandoval’s interview with Howie Mandel on Access Hollywood’s “Nightcap.” Like many others, Jax feels that Sandoval was trying to “justify” his affair with co-star Raquel Leviss. During the interview, Sandoval said there was little intimacy in his nine-year relationship with Ariana. He also claims that he tried to break up with her, but she wouldn’t believe him when he did it on Valentine’s Day.

Jax thinks Sandoval used this opportunity to “play the victim.” He wants him to “man up.” The former Vanderpump Rules star thinks Sandoval should apologize directly to Ariana. He advised his former best friend to “own up” to his behavior and the hurt he caused her.

“You own up to what you’ve. Be a man, and I just think…he hasn’t done either,” Jax Taylor told Access Hollywood. “He hasn’t owned up to anything. He’s justifying everything…I mean, that’s not a man in my opinion.”

Jax also shared whether he misses being part of the reunion tapings. He admitted that he had no interest in attending with his wife Brittany Cartwright. Jax joked that the women of Pump Rules are “scary” and that “they were going for blood” at the reunion taping. He said that he wouldn’t want to be Sandoval at that moment.

In his interview with Access Online, Jax Taylor also shared an update on his relationship with Ariana Madix. The two have learned to respect one another over the years. He has nothing but love and support for her. Jax also knows that she’s doing better these days.

“She respects me, but we always have, we, we just haven’t got along, we think different things and so we kind of always bumped heads,” Jax Taylor explained. “But, I tell you what I’ve seen her about, I think a handful of times since this whole incident and she’s a completely different person.”

Ariana is “happier” and experiencing her glow-up. The VPR fans are witnessing it too. Jax also thinks that Sandoval should move out of the Valley Village home that he shares with Ariana, which is not too far from where Jax lives. The former SUR bartender says Sandoval needs to give her the “space” she needs.
