Jax Taylor Says Leaving Jax’s Is ‘Bittersweet,’ but Essential for Well-Being

Jax Taylor says it’s bittersweet to end his time working at Jax’s in Studio City … ’cause he doesn’t completely want to give it up — but, he has to for his mental health.

We caught up with the reality television star while workers were literally taking his name off the establishment … and, we asked him about how he feels to be giving the place up.

Jax says they had a great run … but, he ultimately thinks he can’t get to where he wants to go and hold on to the bar — though he says he may want to host a few events there in the future when he does get his mind right, since his business partner Leo plans to keep the bar open … under a new name.

Leo also gets into the finer details about Jax’s decision … and, it seems the choice may have come to him rather suddenly.

Jax has similar feelings when it comes to the Bravo show “The Valley” … saying production on the program wouldn’t be productive for him — and, his priority is to rest, focus on his mental health and be a good father to his son.
