Jax Taylor Says THIS VPR Star Checks In On Him ‘More Than Anybody’ Amid Brittany Cartwright Divorce!

by · Perez Hilton

One of the cast members of Vanderpump Rules has been a shoulder for Jax Taylor to lean on amid his divorce from Brittany Cartwright! And no, it is not Tom Schwartz! We’re talking about the other Tom here!

During a new solo episode of the former couple’s podcast When Reality Hits on Thursday, the 45-year-old television personality revealed he and Tom Sandoval officially rekindled their friendship again during this trying time! Wow! The news may come as a shock to some fans as the pair were not on the best of terms for years — especially when Jax trashed him during Scandoval!

But now, they are friends again! In fact, when a listener asked if Sandoval reached out to him once he came home from his 30-day stint in a mental health facility over the summer, Jax said he checked in on him “more than anybody” else in his life:

“Actually, Tom Sandoval has reached out to me more than anybody, and I know people are gonna be shocked by that. [He was] just checking on me… I was shocked because I [hadn’t] heard from Tom in a long time, and now I probably talk to Tom three or four times a week.”

Damn! The two are even “hanging out” a lot more than they used to! The Valley star continued:

“I have been hanging out with him a little bit more lately. He comes to the bar, he sings karaoke. You know, he’s on tour right now, but I just hung out with him and his mom and his dad, and it was just great to see him. I love Tom, and I will always love him no matter what he does. He’s my best friend, along with Tom Schwartz. They’re both my best friends. People make mistakes in life, but you gotta move on from it. We all gotta forgive each other at some point.”

They’ve clearly forgiven each other now, even after Jax slammed Sandoval for cheating on Ariana Madix with Rachel Leviss! Addressing his previous comments, Jax said:

“I can’t even comprehend what he’s gone through. That Scandoval thing was nationwide. And regardless of how you feel about Tom Sandoval, you gotta remember what he went through. He did go through a lot of things. He caused it. He did a very bad thing, but the world just came down on him.”

We mean, Sandy ultimately did it to himself! He has no one but himself to blame for the aftermath due to how he treated Ariana and the lack of accountability for his actions. Just sayin’! But as for the repaired friendship? We did not have that on our bingo card! But given the divorce and his recent bipolar and PTSD diagnosis, it is great Jax is getting support from a pal — even if that pal is Sandoval. Listen to the podcast (below):
