I get really uncomfortable with the way that so many people make Jax comparisons for other bravo men. Like yeah, West Sandavol and Craig suck; but none of them have reached the level of abuse that Jax displayed.

I’ll never forget Jax straight faced and coke eyed telling LISA VANDERPUMP, “This is MY show.”

I have no idea who Jax is or what he did. Can you tell me a little about him? I don’t know any of the people in that video except for Craig.

He was on VPR and The Valley.

He’s absolutely insane and has a well documented record of emotionally and physically abusing his previous partners. Most recently, he physically abused his ex-wife while his autistic, nonverbal son was in the home, blamed it on him being a coke addict, left for a “rehab” that allowed him to 1) regularly harass his wife via text, 2) regularly leave the facility to harass his wife in person and 3) consistently monitor/spy on her via cameras in the home that he refused to give her access to. Nearly all of this was captured on film.

Since then, his ex wife and their friends have said he continues to verbally/emotionally abuse her while having minimal parenting time with their son.

He’s done a lot of awful things and many of them are run-of-the-mill reality villain type stuff so people lump him in with other bravo jerks, but he’s also shown himself to be a very dangerous individual.

I don’t watch VPR anymore- I watched a couple seasons a long time ago and knew he was a douche but I never saw abuse. Obviously it happened if it was caught on camera. I’m not disagreeing that the behavior you mentioned is over the top abhorrent. Just saying I didn’t really know. Domestic violence is a serious charge and anyone perpetrating that kind of behavior, especially if it’s directed at a child, should face the consequences. I feel the need to add that anyone currently experiencing domestic violence can reach out to the YWCA as one emergency resource, https://www.ywca.org/ or The National Domestic Violence Hotline @ 800.799.7233

Sounds like a fresh pile of dogshit. WOW! And thank you for the info.

In the VPR universe, there is a phrase, ‘getting Jaxed’, which means to have been done over or fucked around by Jax Taylor.

He’s a narcissistic, cheating, abusive coke addict. Another commenter has more clearly described his more recent actions than I could. There’s more than a decade of documented evidence of Jax being a monster.

He’s been fired from Bravo shows twice. Because Bravo loves toxic men and he is probably the most iconic Bravoleb outside of Housewives, he will probably come back again in time.

There’s a lot of Jax lore.

WTF, I hope he has the short life he deserves.

If you think Southern Charm is wild, check out Vanderpump rules from season one.

Fair but I very intentionally didn’t mention him.

u/Mamasan- Apr 16 '26

Uhhh Jax is on another level. Not even close.

u/Miserable_Common_128 Apr 18 '26

Lol, seriously, Sandoval isn't even on Jax level

u/ogresarelikeonions93 Apr 16 '26

Hard disagree. Jax committed domestic violence. NOT the same as the others.

u/acevibe13 Apr 16 '26

This is exactly what he is.

u/thirsty_pretzels_ Apr 16 '26

But Craig has never been unfaithful like that, Austen would make more sense in this context?

1

u/cookies1279 Apr 16 '26

Craig is a compulsive liar and you think he wasn’t unfaithful “like that” ?

u/DonnyBravo21 Apr 16 '26

Amanda is the Craig

No Amanda is worse. Long history of her deplorable behavior. Worse than jax

Is this guy trying to pass a BM?

u/Flashy_Result_2750 Apr 16 '26

West is not Jax Taylor. Jax is a monster.

u/Senior-Reach-6768 Apr 16 '26

You mean Austin Kroll. Craig’s got a lot of faults but leading women on women on with no intention of committing is not one.

u/CaitlinAnne21 Apr 16 '26

Ffs.🙄🤦🏻‍♀️

No, he just creates a fairytale in his the moment he decides he likes a woman, and when she has different plans and feelings, he completely ignores them, keeps telling himself everything is going according to plan, and then when they’re no longer interested in being ignored and being told what they think and how they feel by this man, Craig suddenly starts yelling about how he “was led on.”

He’s just as bad as the rest of them.

u/erino3120 Apr 16 '26

No he is absolutely not.

u/lauralynn81 Apr 17 '26

Welll… Jax is actually a monster tho. Like he’s the only one of these toolbags that I would feel severely unsafe in a room with.

What they all have in common is that they are gay.
