Jax Opens Up About His Real Name

OK, by now we all know that Jax Taylor's given name is Jason Cauchi. And thanks to going inside his sessions with his Reiki therapist, we're getting to see more of that guy. And in the latest edition of the Vanderpump Rules After Show, Jax, or Jason if you prefer, is getting real about these dual sides to himself. 

How to Watch

Watch Vanderpump Rules on Bravo Tuesdays at 8/7c and next day on Peacock. Catch up on the Bravo app.  

"Jax was a nickname as a kid and Taylor is my mother's maiden name. I felt like I took on this person, though, this Jax Taylor. I took him on as a character and I became this socialite douchebag in L.A. that just kind of didn't have a care in the world, no soul, and I'm like, who is this person?"

And while his family calls Jax "Jason," his friends and girlfriend, Brittany Cartwright, have varying takes on how they refer to the Vanderpump Rules SURver, which you can check out in the clip above.

Now that you know more about Jax and Jason, find out how the crew would feel about living their lives without him in it, below.
