In a shocking behind-the-scenes twist that’s rocking the Vanderpump Rules inner circle, Jax Taylor has allegedly inserted himself into the Brock Davies cheating scandal in the most controversial way possible — by blaming Scheana Shay for the fallout.
According to multiple insiders close to the cast, Jax privately reached out to Brock Davies shortly after Scheana’s memoir excerpt revealed his infidelity, sending a text that stunned even their longtime friends. The leaked message, which circulated among several cast members, reportedly reads:
“You better control your woman before she ruins all of us. Airing dirty laundry only makes things worse.”
The text immediately ignited outrage within the group, with sources claiming Jax’s comment wasn’t just sexist — it exposed his true loyalty. “It’s classic Jax,” one insider tells DailyMail+. “Instead of holding Brock accountable for cheating while Scheana was pregnant, he turned around and blamed Scheana for speaking out. It’s like the old ‘bro code’ kicked in, and he went into damage control mode for Brock.”
The leak of Jax’s message couldn’t have come at a worse time. While Scheana Shay has faced backlash for staying with Brock after his affair, many fans and castmates have praised her for sharing her truth in My Good Side. But Jax’s alleged reaction paints a different picture of the dynamics behind closed doors. “He sees Scheana as the problem, not Brock,” the source continues. “He thinks Scheana airing it out will make all the guys look bad, like it’ll reflect on the whole group — especially with how scandal-weary Bravo is right now.”
The fallout between Jax and Scheana appears to be getting worse by the day. Insiders claim Scheana confronted Jax directly after learning about the leaked text, furious that he would suggest she needed to be ‘controlled’ by her husband. “She told him to stay out of her marriage — and her business,” one insider shares. “Scheana’s been humiliated enough without Jax acting like it’s her fault.”
Brittany Cartwright, who has tried to publicly support both her husband and Scheana, is reportedly caught in the crossfire. According to friends, Brittany was “horrified” when she found out about Jax’s message. “She doesn’t want to defend him on this,” the insider says. “She’s been begging him to apologize, but Jax refuses to back down. He thinks he did nothing wrong.”
This latest controversy adds fuel to growing rumors that Jax and Scheana’s friendship is effectively over. While they’ve weathered countless ups and downs over the years, sources say this may be the final blow. “There’s no coming back from this,” the insider claims. “Jax crossed a line — and everyone knows it.”
As for Brock? Insiders say he was “visibly uncomfortable” with Jax’s message but hasn’t publicly distanced himself from the controversial former SUR bartender. “He just laughed it off,” a source says. “Brock wants to move past this scandal without losing friends, but at what cost?”
With Vanderpump Rules filming on hiatus and The Valley cast preparing for their next season, the group’s fractured relationships are under more pressure than ever. And with this explosive leak now making its rounds in both cast circles and fan forums, one thing is clear: the drama is far from over — and no friendship is safe.
