Jax Taylor Confirms Relationship with Publicist Lori Krebs

Jax Taylor, the 47‑year‑old former "Vanderpump Rules" star, confirmed via an Instagram comment that he is dating Lori Krebs, the longtime publicist of his ex‑wife Brittany Cartwright. In the comment responding to a fan’s joke about him being the next Bachelor, Taylor wrote, “No thanks I am taken,” accompanied by a red heart emoji.

Photos taken in July at a resort in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, show Taylor and Krebs embracing and sharing intimate moments in a pool, confirming the romance that began after both separated from Cartwright. Brittany Cartwright, who shares a five‑year‑old son, Cruz, with Taylor, addressed the development on her "When Reality Hits" podcast, saying she feels betrayed and has cut ties with Krebs. The couple’s split and divorce proceedings are ongoing, and the new relationship has drawn comments from other former cast members.

The story has been reported by multiple entertainment outlets, all noting the public confirmation, the location of the photos, and Cartwright’s reaction.
