Jax Taylor reveals reasons for leaving Vanderpump Rules

Jax Taylor revealed on his podcast that he knows the exact moment producers decided to end his time on "Vanderpump Rules." He cited his refusal to film a scene at the beach and his attempts to persuade others not to go as key issues. Taylor admitted he was "micromanaging" production and acknowledged that his behavior was problematic. Executive producer Alex Baskin confirmed that Taylor's actions were seen as sabotaging the show. Taylor, an original cast member since 2013, left the show in 2020 with his wife, Brittany Cartwright. He expressed regret about his final season, calling his actions a "dumb ass move" that led to his departure.
