Jax Taylor will return to the upcoming season of Vanderpump Rules despite fans calling out Bravo to fire the SURver for his firing for his past racist actions. “Jax definitely plans to return to Vanderpump Rules once filming starts back up again,” an insider told Us Weekly.
The news comes after former cast members Faith Stowers and Billie Lee called for Taylor to be fired from the series following Bravo’s decision to cut ties with Kristen Doute, Stassi Schroeder, Brett Caprioni and Max Boyens in June for resurfaced racist remarks.
“I got DMs from other shows, from other females on other shows saying that Mr. Taylor had said some crazy things to them that were racial,” Stowers told the publication on June 10, noting that Taylor had falsely claimed that she was wanted by the police while they were working together. “So I think he gets a pat on the back a lot. But I think that if you’re going to do it for two people, they should do it for some other people as well.”
Lee, who was on Pump Rules for two seasons, claimed that Taylor “refused to film with me because I was trans.”
Taylor’s friend and Just Add X partner, Lance Bass said he’d cut ties with the SURver after his past racist and homophobic comments resurfaced. “Lance is disappointed because he does have love for Jax and wanted him to do well,” a source told the publication on June 16. “But Lance was under the impression (like everyone else) that Jax was evolving and wasn’t going to go back to his old behaviors, especially after getting married to Brittany [Cartwright].”
