Vanderpump Rules star Lisa Vanderpump did not want to miss Jax Taylor’s wedding. More than that, she didn’t want his mother, Marie Cauchi, to miss it either.

VPR’s Lisa Vanderpump Opens Up About Being a Mother Figure to Jax

Lisa has always had a soft spot for the VPR co-star and SUR bartender. Jax has gotten into all kinds of shenanigans over the years. From stealing SUR silverware to hooking up with former co-star Laura Leigh in the restaurant bathroom.

Jax has been suspended from SUR more times than we can count but unlike James Kennedy, Lisa never fires him. Part of that is because she feels maternal toward him, People reports.

In an appearance on Vanderpump Rules After Show, Lisa explained how she sees their relationship. She said,

After he lost his father, and I think because Jax’s relationship with his own mother was not in a good place … he looked to me as a kind of matriarchal figure in his life and somebody he’s turned to sometimes.”

Earlier this season on VPR, Lisa informed Jax and Brittany Cartwright that she wouldn’t be able to make their Kentucky wedding. Lisa’s mother died unexpectedly days before the nuptials. However, Lisa was able to fly back to the States for the wedding, courtesy of VPR newbie Randall Emmett’s private jet.

According to Jax, his mother tried to warn Brittany off from staying in a relationship with Jax. He believes too much was said for a reconciliation to happen anytime soon. Jax says,

There was so much hurt and a lot of things said, below the belt type of stuff — things that you can’t come back from.”

Why VPR Star Almost Called Jax’s Mom Before Wedding

Jax said many times before the wedding that his mother was not invited. Still, his fans and co-stars hoped they could make amends before the wedding. Lisa, in particular, thought there would be regret on both sides if Jax’s mom wasn’t there.

Lisa revealed to Jax during the After Show that she considered contacting his mom until Brittany talked her out of it. She was hoping to relate to Jax’s mom “mother-to-mother” about how important Marie’s presence would be at the wedding.

Lisa wonders what else Jax’s mom will miss. As fans know, Jax and Brittany are eager to start a family. The VPR boss said it’s “very sad” that the children will miss out on a grandparent and vice versa.
