Jax Taylor Would Lie to Women About Liking Them Too Much When He Couldn’t Perform in Bed
Jax Taylor is getting brutally honest about some of his sex tricks — including the ones he had for when he couldn’t perform.
During the Thursday, April 3, episode of his “In the Mind of a Man” podcast, Taylor, 45, revealed to guest — and sex therapist — Dr. Emily Morse that he has “faked orgasms” in the past. He then elaborated on how he faced complications in the bedroom.
“We would be having sex and I know it’s not going to happen. So I’ll stop it early and be like, ‘You know what? I really, really like you. I don’t think we should do this right now,’” he admitted. “So it takes the pressure off me. And then they’re like, ‘Oh, that’s so sweet.’”
Taylor stood by the method, adding, “I would rather her tell her friends that, ‘He was so sweet that he wanted to wait.’ Rather than, ‘He can’t cum when he’s with me.’ That’s a little more embarrassing.”
After rising to fame on Vanderpump Rules, Taylor stood by the unfiltered glimpses he has offered Us when it comes to his personal life. He briefly dated Stassi Schroeder when the season premiered in 2013 before getting caught in a cheating scandal with pal Tom Sandoval‘s then-girlfriend Kristen Doute.
Taylor appeared to find The One in Brittany Cartwright but the couple ended their marriage in 2024. More recently, Taylor explained how his substance abuse struggles contributed to the fallout of the relationship.
“I’ve been doing it for a long time, but the addiction got worse during my divorce and during my separation,” he shared on Bravo’s “Hot Mic” podcast last month. “I literally lost control. I hit rock bottom and I had to go to rehab.”
In a cover story for Us Weekly, the reality star reflected on how his addiction would be featured on season 2 of The Valley.
“I’ve been in and out of using cocaine for awhile. I wouldn’t use it every single day. There would be months I would take off,” he explained in March. “And then I would do it like a week here, maybe two times a month or three times a month. It got really bad though. When the divorce started, I felt like I was doing it recreationally.”
Taylor, who shares 3-year-old son Cruz with Cartwright, 36, noted that he is still working on himself every day. “I had all these other issues because I’m masking loneliness,” he added. “I’m masking the texting women by doing drugs and drinking alcohol. I have all these other issues. So it’s a slow process, which is hard for me because I always look for the quick fix. This is one of those things in life that it’s not a quick fix. You have to work at it. I’m not used to that.”
He concluded: “This is not gonna work that way. That’s not how addiction, sickness and mental health works. People are like, ‘Jax, you’ve done a lot of freaking damage. Like a lot.’ And this is just not going to go away anymore. People have had enough.”
