Jax Taylor and his wife Brittany Cartwright are opening up about their issues with Vanderpump Rules co-star Tom Sandoval. Taylor explains why he regrets having Sandoval at his wedding. "I did change my mind and allow him to not only come to the wedding, but to be in my wedding and do I regret that, yes," Jax told Entertainment Tonight.
"I just wish I would've stood by what I said. I felt I was a little bit bullied into bringing him back in."
Jax then teases that there's more drama to come between him and Sandoval later in the season. "There's some things he did during this season that haven't played out yet that were just uncalled for, absolutely uncalled for -- below the belt, should never, ever happen to a friend -- and I made my decision that I did not want him there," Jax teases. "I don't want to give it away but it's really uncalled for."
"There's things where … you would always expect your best friends to be on your side and have your back and not question your judgment or your character, and I felt like that's what Tom did," Brittany said. "That really upset me, because he knows us very well and he knows the type of people that we are and just to even, like, second guess us at all? It just was very disrespectful, and it really hurt my feelings, especially after how hard I worked to try to, like, keep them together."
"I wish he was at the wedding, I just wish he wasn't in the wedding, if that makes any sense," Jax goes on to clarify. "It takes, you know -- everybody up there plays a huge role in my life, huge role from the moment I moved to L.A., 'til the day I got married. That's why I had so many [groomsmen] and I couldn't just pick one. Each one of those guys, I love individually so much, and they've done so much for me, and I just you know the things that I was going through with Tom, it just... it didn't make sense for him to be standing next to me."
"I have a feeling, in five years, if Tom Sandoval was not in our wedding photos that would be very weird for Jax," Brittany chimes in. "Like, they're gonna be friends again, I know it -- and they are friends, it’s not that they're not friends."
"We're just cordial," Jax remarks, bringing up how this seems to be a pattern for Tom this season.
Jax says he and Tom are in a "relationship" more so than a friendship; they're like family, and sometimes, families grow apart. Jax, who just turned 40, says he realizes that he and Tom are simply in different life places and want different things.
"I'm trying to get married and start a family, he doesn't want to do that," he told Entertainment Tonight. "I'm just into different things, and it's OK, it's all right."
The couple is also sharing their thoughts on the drama between the Witches of WeHo.
"I see both sides, and I completely understand why Katie and Stassi needed to take a break, 'cause they were fighting every time they were together, every single time," Brittany shares. "It's good that they are taking this time. I hope they can find each other again, like that would be great 'cause then we can be together again and I don’t have to do this with this person, and this with that person. It’s like our parents are divorced."
"I don't think it’s going to happen anytime soon," Jax chimes in, adding that he doesn't think the Witches' issues will be resolved ahead of Stassi's wedding to Beau Clark this fall.
"I think they are still going after each other, and I think Kristen needs to figure herself out and get past whatever she is going through," he adds. "I think Stassi and Katie have had enough of you [Kristen] telling the girls one thing, and you telling your boyfriend, Carter, another thing, and you’re wishy-washy and we’re not getting the straight story from you."
Brittany and Jax say Kristen has finally cut off Carter completely and is dating other people.
"She is a great person and she’s been a great friend to me," Jax adds of Kristen. "She is the one person I will trust with my own kid."
