Katie Maloney will be seen opening up about the cheating rumors she heard about Jax Taylor on tonight’s conclusion of the Vanderpump Rules season 11 reunion.
After mentioning “stories about [Jax] running around town” during the season, which Jax, 44, slammed as “gossip,” Katie, 37, speaks of the online reports, including claims of “bathroom sex,” as the rest of the cast weighs in, and Tom Schwartz, 40, shares his thoughts on Jax’s separation from Brittany Cartwright, 35.
“Just like he was hooking up with a waitress or something about bathroom sex,” Katie explains. “There was just like random stuff that like over like maybe one month here, a few months later there’s something here … Again, they were online.”
While Scheana Shay, 39, confirms that she had heard the rumors too, she clarifies that she was told the claims by Katie and Lala Kent, 33.
“I think I heard about it through Katie, through Lala. It was just in the group we had discussed things that people had seen online,” she shares, noting that she only considered they may be true for “a second.”
“[Brittany] had gone through his phone and DMs and found nothing,” she reasons.
But Katie notes, “They weren’t texting, cheating. It was like he’s rolling into the bar, and we’re getting it on in the bathroom. You’re not going to find that in the text.”
“There’s no time to text, Scheana. It’s not that hard to understand,” adds James Kennedy, 32, as Brock Davies suggests Jax was “dipping in and dipping out.”
Meanwhile, Schwartz and Tom Sandoval, 41, agree that “in this day and age,” you cannot get away with cheating.
As for Lala, she says that she first heard about Jax potentially cheating from Katie.
“Katie was the one that broke the news to me with something she found online. She sent this to me. She wasn’t close with Brittany. I am close with Brittany. I said to her, because Brittany has been open, they had not been intimate for quite some time. In my experience, if you’re not f*cking him, someone else is,” she states.
Still, according to Schwartz, infidelity was not the reason Jax and Brittany separated.
“I don’t think so. I think honesty, they stopped bringing out the best in each other,” he shares.
Since Jax and Brittany’s separation announcement in February, Jax has stepped out with model Paige Woolen, 32, on a number of occasions.
Part three of the Vanderpump Rules season 11 reunion airs tonight, May 28, at 8/7c on Bravo.
