Jax Taylor claims Tom Sandoval cheated on Ariana Madix multiple times

Jax Taylor claims his former “Vanderpump Rules” co-star Tom Sandoval cheated on Ariana Madix multiple times before he was caught having an affair with Raquel Leviss.

During Wednesday’s episode of “Watch What Happens Live,” host Andy Cohen asked Taylor a fan-submitted question of whether he knew whether or not Sandoval had previous flings.

“Yes, 100 percent,” Taylor bluntly replied. “I told you I was there. Not only in the Miami situation — and that was week one of their relationship by the way — but yeah, there’s been other times.”

After his wife, Brittany Cartwright, asked him to explain, the former reality TV star replied, “It doesn’t matter if he did it one or 10 times, he did it.”

Before switching the topic, Taylor — who left the show in 2020 — reiterated that Sandoval cheated “within the last couple of years.”

However, a source close to Sandoval told Page Six that Taylor and the bar founder have not discussed any of the latter’s relationships and that they haven’t even seen each other in a year.

Reps for Sandoval did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.

Taylor’s latest comments come just days after he claimed Sandoval preyed on Leviss during their affair because she is “easily influenced.”

“There’s a reason why it’s Raquel. [It’s] because she can be controlled,” he recently told People, noting that Madix and Leviss are opposites.

“Ariana’s a very strong, independent woman — that’s how Brittany is — but you can’t control her,” he added, claiming, “And I think Raquel’s very easily influenced. I think he likes to be able to tell her what to do. I think she’s very codependent, and I think he preys on that.

“He can control her and she’ll do whatever he says. And she’s a fangirl a little bit. That wasn’t happening with Ariana.”

The 43-year-old also admitted he “wasn’t shocked” to learn Leviss and Sandoval had been having a months-long affair behind Madix’s back.

“I’ve known Tom Sandoval for 20 years, we grew up together,” he continued. “I just know his lifestyle. I know who he is, and I’ve said it many times. No one wanted to believe me.”

Madix, 37, broke up with Sandoval, 40, after nearly 10 years together when she found a sexually explicit video of Leviss on her now ex-boyfriend’s phone.

In fact, sources later told Page Six that the pair had been “communicating inappropriately” since July 2022.

Since then, both Sandoval and Leviss issued public apologies to Madix, who broke her silence one week later saying she is “devastated” by the betrayal.

However, the entire “VPR” cast is set to come face-to-face for the first time on Thursday to film the Season 10 reunion.

Leviss announced on Wednesday morning that she plans on attending the post-“Scandoval” special, later adding that she hopes to “make amends” with her castmates.

“Vanderpump Rules” airs Wednesdays at 9 p.m. ET on Bravo.
