Jax Taylor 'has no interest in drink or drugs'
Reality TV star Jax Taylor insists he won't return to taking drugs.
Jax Taylor "will not touch drugs and alcohol again".
The 45-year-old reality TV star has undergone treatment for his addictions, and Jax is now confident that he won't return to taking drugs or drinking ever again.
Speaking on the We’re Out of Time podcast, Jax shared: "I know for a fact — and I know you’re not supposed to say it — but I know for a fact I will not touch drugs and alcohol again.
"I know that. I have no interest in it. I’m not triggered by it."
Jax now looks back on his addictions with lots of regrets.
The former Vanderpump Rules star explained: "Now I can look back and say, 'What the f*** was I doing? Why didn't I stop this years ago?’"
Jax also intends to continue attending Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) meetings.
He said: "I'm going to always work on it … I want to make it very clear, I’m not going to ever stop going to AA for the rest of my life. I love it. It’s like a drug to me.
"I love going and meeting the guys. My sober friends, I’ve shifted from my drunk friends, now I have a sober group of friends. We have a great time. We go out to dinner."
Jax previously admitted that he's been battling a cocaine addiction for more than 20 years.
The TV star - who split from his wife Britanny Cartwright in 2024 - said on the Hot Mic podcast: "I have substance issues - primarily with cocaine. It’s hard to say out loud. I’ve been dealing with this on and off since I was 23 and now I’m 45.
"There was times where I would stop doing it but then there were times where I’d go heavy on it.
"I just want to let people know this is a really, really tough disease and it’s a really tough sickness."
Brittany subsequently claimed that she spent years trying to help Jax to "get better".
She said on the When Reality Hits podcast: "No one wants Jax to be better more than I do, let’s be real.
"I tried and tried and tried for years to help this man get better and for us to be a happy family, I was deeply and madly in love with him, there’s no one that can ever deny that."
