Why Jax Taylor disappeared from Bravo, explained | The Sun

LOVE HIM or hate him, Jax Taylor was an enigma on Bravo's Vanderpump Rules.

But after Stassi Schroeder and Kristen Doute were fired for their racist behavior, Jax Taylor was also scrutinized.

Was Jax Taylor fired?

Controversial TV star Jax Taylor and his wife Brittany Cartwright were allegedly fired from Bravo's spinoff of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Vanderpump Rules.

The couple simultaneously posted similar messages announcing their sudden departure to their Instagrams on December 4, 2020.

A spokesperson from Bravo confirmed that “Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright will not be returning to ‘Vanderpump Rules,'” to Variety.

Jax had been cast on the show for eight seasons.

Days before their announcement, 90 Day Fiancé star Ashley Martson had spoken out to fire Jax for a past "racist" comment he made about her husband, Jay Smith.

She posted on Instagram: "Did y’all see bravo fired four cast members?"

"Well @bravotv don’t leave out old Jax Taylor who harassed us when our show first aired.”

VPR alum Billie Lee, who is transgender, has also accused him of being transphobic.

“He refused to film with me because I was trans and called him out on his white cis privilege."

“Stop celebrating his disgusting actions,” she said, along with a “cancel Jax Taylor” hashtag.

Is Brittany Cartwright returning?

Like Jax, the TV star's wife Brittany announced that she would not return to the show.

Brittany was seen on seasons 6-8 of the show.

She wrote in a lengthy Instagram caption: “The last 5 years on Vanderpump Rules have been some of the most challenging, rewarding and fulfilling years of my life."

“Although this is difficult to share, Jax and I will not be returning for another season of Vanderpump Rules.”

Brittany shared her post first with a series of throwbacks from her time on the show, including wedding photos with Jax from last year. 

As for what’s in store for them in the future, the pregnant star shared: “We are excited to take this time to focus on our growing family and share with you our new endeavors."

“@bravotv, @evolutionusa and our Vanderpump castmates will always remain close to our hearts."

“Thank you to all the fans who have shared our journey with us and supported us through everything. We love you. Stay tuned!”

When did they have their baby?

In September, the couple announced they were expecting a baby due in April 2021.

"Mom & Dad. The love of our lives is coming soon," Brittany shared on Instagram, with Jax adding, "Sooooo, I am gonna be Dad."

A week later, they revealed the sex of their baby on social media.

"It’s a BOY!!!!" Brittany posted about the couple's first child, along with photos from their gender reveal event.
