Jax Taylor wishes Tom Sandoval hadn’t been standing next to him when he and Brittany Cartwright tied the knot in Kentucky last June.
During a recent taping of the Vanderpump Rules: After Show , Taylor looked back on his wedding with Cartwright after being asked how Sandoval got back into the ceremony after previously being booted from his best man role.
“I regret that decision. I got bullied into having him. I had Brittany on me, I had everybody going on me, ‘You’re going to regret this.’ I should have had him at the wedding but he should not have been standing next to me,” Taylor told his producer as a very shocked Lisa Vanderpump sat beside him.
According to Cartwright, Taylor had major issues with Sandoval because he wasn’t around in the moments leading up to their wedding and failed to answer his text messages and phone calls. However, in his own interview on the After Show , Sandoval insisted that he responded to each and every one of these messages. He was even seen showing Taylor that he had responded in a flashback clip from Season 8.
Sandoval went on to say that in addition to being there for the groom, he was faced with a rollercoaster of emotions after Taylor treated his role as best man as if he was hired on a trial basis. He also accused Taylor of acting as if he was extremely bummed out that he was unable to attend his pre-bachelor party, even though he knew Sandoval had plans with his mother in St. Louis.
During a later moment of the show, Taylor suspected Sandoval confronted him about his controversial pastor because he was jealous that the attention wasn’t on him.
“Maybe the spotlight wasn’t on him for five minutes? That’s a token Sandoval move,” Taylor stated.
As The Inquisitr previously reported, Tom Schwartz weighed in on the ongoing feud between his two castmates during an interview with Entertainment Tonight earlier this month. At the time, as a YouTube clip revealed, Schwartz said that he has wanted to reach out to Taylor in an effort to confront him about his many verbal attacks on Sandoval but hasn’t done so yet.
“As a close friend, there’s part of me that wants to reach out to him and be like, ‘What are you doing? You’re spiraling on Twitter and you’re going after him and it feels unjust and out of line,’” he explained.
