Turns out Kim Zolciak did, in fact, invite Jax Taylor to dinner.
Â
This was confirmed during the July 31 episode of Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, where Kim addressed Jaxâs recent comments about their relationship.
âJax told me at The Valley [Season 2] reunion heâs very close to you,â host Andy Cohen told Kim. âHe said you hit him up to have dinner.â
âJax and I have talked throughout the years, but because of the divorce, weâve talked quite a bit [more] through that,â The Real Housewives of Atlanta alum said, referring to her and Jaxâs respective marital splits. âYeah, he was gonna be in Atlanta and I said, âLetâs have a drink⊠and then dinner.â And then we didnât end up doing it.â
Jax Taylor reveals Kim Zolciak invited him to dinner
Kim and Jax made headlines last month after fans got a peek at Part 1 of The Valley Season 2 reunion. At one point during the special, Andy asked Jax which Bravolebrities â outside The Valley and Vanderpump Rules casts â he was closest to.
âWho do I talk to the most? Everybody,â Jax said. âIâve been doing this for years. So, the last person I probably talked to is Kim Zolciak. I talked to her yesterday.â
âOh, really?â a visibly surprised Andy replied. âWhat do you talk to Kim about?â
âShe just asked, because Iâm coming to Atlanta, sheâs like, âDo you want to meet for dinner?ââ Jax said. âSo, Iâm gonna have dinner with her⊠A little bit of everybody.â
Jax Taylor and Kim Zolciak are both navigating divorces
Although the Jax-and-Kim friendship initially surprised many fans, it makes sense when you consider their similarities. The two have spent more than a decade living in the public eye, allowing cameras to document everything from their weddings, new families, and, more recently, divorces.Kim and her estranged husband, Kroy Biermann, separated in 2023 and are reportedly ânowhere nearâ finalizing their divorce. Jax and Brittany Cartwright confirmed their split in February 2024, about six months before the latter filed for divorce. Brittany spoke about the legal battle during The Valley Season 2 reunion, claiming Jax was intentionally dragging out the process.
Â
âHopefully itâs happening soon,â Brittany said about the divorce finalization. â[Jax] called me the other day and said that he didnât know if he was gonna get kicked off the show, so he was prolonging it in case he needed to get alimony from me.â
Jax admitted Brittanyâs claim was âsomewhat true.â
âThatâs verbatim what you said to me,â Brittany fired back. âDonât act like you didnât say that to me.â
The Season 2 reunion aired less than two weeks after Jax announced he was leaving The Valley to focus on his mental health and 4-year-old son, Cruz Cauchi. Find out whatâs next for Jax and why he decided to step away from his namesake bar.
