What’s Jax Taylor’s Net Worth? Details on The Valley Star

Jax Taylor reigned supreme as the resident bad guy on The Vanderpump Rules for eight seasons before news broke that he was leaving the show. For longtime fans, his exit marked the end of an era.

Since then, Jax has been booked and busy. Along with opening his own restaurant, Jax is slated to return to reality TV with Bravo’s The Valley. But what’s his net worth? Here’s what we know about the ex-Vanderpump Rules star’s finances.

Hard work pays — and so does reality TV. According to Celebrity Net Worth, Jax Taylor has an estimated net worth of a whopping $4 million.

Jax made his TV debut as an uncredited extra on Arrested Development in 2006. However, a lot has changed since his days as an unpaid extra.

Today, Jax is a beloved TV personality with more than 1 million followers and counting — and it’s all thanks to Bravo. He made several cameos on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills before he joined the cast of the RHOBH spinoff, Vanderpump Rules.

Jax starred in the E! series House of Villians, where he revealed that he’s rolling in dough. According to Jax, Cameo — a platform that allows fans to request customized messages from their favorite celebrity — has been extremely lucrative for him.

“I’ve made about probably $450,000 on Cameo alone,” he said on an episode of House of Villians. He also mentioned that his wife, Brittany Cartwright, has been in her bag too.

“My wife makes a lot of money. She just got a $2 million job from Jenny Craig. My wife crushes it,” he bragged. Still, Jax insisted that he needed the prize money — but we’re not sure we believe him.

After all, Jax also has his cash from his tenure on Vanderpump Rules to fall back on. Life & Style estimates that he made $25 million an episode. Jax appeared in a total of 165 episodes of Vanderpump Rules — so you do the math.

In addition to Jax’s career in entertainment, he’s also an entrepreneur.

Much like his Vanderpump Rules co-stars Tom Sandoval and Tom Schwartz, Jax is officially a restauranteur.

However, in an interview with PEOPLE, Jax said that he takes their business advice with “a grain of salt.”

“There’s a big difference of how I’m doing it versus how they did it,” Jax said.

“They did not include their significant others at all. They weren’t even allowed at the bar. That’s a recipe for disaster if you’re owning a business like that,” he added.

As of this writing, Google Reviews gives the restaurant 3.8 stars, so it seems to be doing fairly well.
