Jax Taylor Fired From The Valley, Replacements Found
For many years, Jax Taylor has had mental health issues. He has gone to therapy and even explored Reiki thanks to SUR manager Peter Madrigal. Eventually, his wife Brittany Cartwright told him he had a lot of work to do in order for their marriage to survive. It did not appear he cared to do anything as she left but Jax did say he was going to a therapist. He ended up bailing and now, as filming for Season 2 of The Valley is underway, Jax made a big life change.

He entered a mental health facility and has been trying to get the help that he desperately needs. However, the show still must go on and with that being said, it appears some revamping occurred. According to a Reddit thread, Jax has been fired from the Vanderpump Rules spinoff. He was allegedly aggressive but things will be reassessed once he is released. If Brittany wants him back, then he will likely be able to come back to the series. If not, then he is done. Therefore, Bravo has brought on two close friends of the current cast to fill the void.

Jax Taylor did not want Scheana Shay or Lala Kent to join the cast. In fact, during the Season 11 Vanderpump Rules reunion, Lala threw Brittany under the bus. Yet, she was nervous that if Vanderpump did not continue to film, she would not be able to provide for her family. More so, Scheana has also noted how her real and true friends are on The Valley so she feels more comfortable over there. So, do viewers even want these two as Jax’s replacement?
The Fans Speak
After learning about Jax Taylor being fired but Lala Kent and Scheana Shay taking his spot, how did The Valley viewers react?
- Im a sceptic by habit but if this is true that would be very interesting and could explain what’s been going on. Honestly idk why they put up with Jax’s crap for so long.
- Until this is confirmed by someone other than Teddi Mellencamp, I’m going to assume he’s not fired.
- I dont want to see Lala on my TV. Especially on The Valley.
- If Bravo won’t fire Teresa from RONJ, they’re definitely not firing Jax.
The source was Teddi Mellencamp who claimed that Lala and Scheana were taking over for Jax. He was forced into treatment to keep his job but many will believe it when they see it. However, if it’s true, they don’t seem to mind Scheana but Lala is someone they do not want on their television screens.
Do you believe this and if it is true, would you want Lala and Scheana over Jax? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
