Jax Taylor

It may be very warm and sunny in California at the moment.

But try telling that to Kim Kardashian and her sisters.

Barely over a week ago, Younes Bendjima and Kourtney Kardashian broke up -- and it was ugly.

Now, Younes is no longer her boyfriend or boy toy. He's just another young hottie trying to make it.

Last month, Vanderpump Rules star Jax Taylor got engaged to Brittany Cartwright.

Fans of the series were more than a little surprised, not because Jax has never really seemed like the marrying kind (although there is that), but because he's seemed to go out of his way to make Brittany's life markedly worse throughout their time together.

Jax Taylor isn't exactly a favorite amongst Vanderpump Rules fans.

Taylor takes a lot of flak for his behavior on the show, and rightfully so -- he's pretty much effed up in every imaginable way over the course of the show's six seasons.

In December, Jax Taylor's father died following a cancer battle. Cancer is the actual worst, folks.

Months later, on his late father's birthday, Jax has taken to social media to share his thoughts on his dearly departed dad.

Back in April, we asked the following question:

Is the romance between Brittany Cartwright and Jax Taylor really over for good?

Over the past two seasons of Vanderpump Rules viewers witnessed two very perplexing inverse trends:

For some reason, as James Kennedy's behavior became even more deplorable, he somehow came to enjoy greater popularity with his castmates.

Jax Taylor has had a rough year.

Granted, many of his problems are self-created, such as the drama that ensued when he was caught cheating on Brittany Cartwright.

From the very start of their relationship, Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright faced some pretty severe challenges, many of them resulting from what Taylor describes as his "Peter Pan complex."

Jax will soon be 39 years old, but the current season of Vanderpump Rules features some of his most batsh-t behavior yet, and Brittany has tolerated all of it ... only to get unceremoniously kicked to the curb on last night's episode.

When Jax Taylor appears on Andy Cohen's Watch What Happens Live, it's not uncommon for callers to inquire as to the quantity of cocaine that disappears up the Vanderpump Rules star's surgically-enhanced nose on a nightly basis.

Based on what we saw last night, the answer cannot be given in terms of grams or even ounces, and instead must be envisioned as a relief map of Tony Montana's desktop.

While Stassi Schroeder defends herself against accusations of racism, fellow Vanderpump Rules star Faith Stowers is still defending herself.

Fans have been blaming Faith for Jax Taylor cheating on Brittany Cartwright. And, to be fair, he did cheat on Brittany with Faith.

Jax Taylor's scandalous hook-up with Faith Stowers has been the talking point of Vanderpump Rules Season 6, but the latest twist in the tale is the biggest stunner yet.
