It’s safe to say Lisa Vanderpump understands reality television.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star has made a career of the genre, after appearing in the mega-popular show’s debut season and remaining a staple of its cast for a full nine seasons more. Mid-way through her tenure on RHOBH, she added a second reality program to her resume, with the debut of Vanderpump Rules. The spin-off focuses on Vanderpump specifically, as she works to manage several high-end restaurants and their volatile staffs. Among the most well-known members of her staff — who, through Vanderpump Rules, became reality staples in their own right — were those who’ve been there from the start.
Like Jax Taylor, an OG Pump Rules cast member and eventual spin-off star. A few years after it started, Pump Rules inspired several spin-off series of its own, and Vanderpump Rules: Jax And Brittany Take Kentucky predictably puts Taylor and fellow Pump Rules star Brittany Cartwright in center stage. The pair of former SUR Restaurant & Lounge employees are doing quite well for themselves, despite a reported 2020 firing from the program that rocketed them to stardom, as they continue to roll in the cash their reality resumes have earned them.
Jax Taylor’s net worth
Jax Taylor was an easy standout of Pump Rules first few seasons, as he and cast mate Stassi caused constant drama for themselves and their cast mates. He eventually moved on from the toxic — but delightfully messy — relationship, and instead found himself a far healthier pairing with Brittany Cartwright. The pair have since left Pump Rules and Jax and Brittany Take Kentucky, instead putting their time toward expanding their family and settling into the cozy life they’ve created for themselves.
And it is cozy. Taylor alone is worth a hefty $4 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth, and his wife is worth an additional $1 million. That puts their family with a collective net worth of $5 million, along with a $1.9 million Los Angeles home. They welcomed their first child, a boy, in 2021, and it seems the pair’s time on Pump Rules and its spin-offs is serving them quite well.
