Jax Taylor And Tom Schwartz Step Up To Defend Lisa Vanderpump

The women on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills have really gone in on Lisa Vanderpump this season – well, except for Kyle Richards and Kathryn Edwards, who are staunch LVP supporters. The rest of the ladies have been claiming that Lisa is very manipulative behind the scenes of the show. The queen bee is being attacked left and right and whether you think it’s justified or not, you have to admit that it has to be a lot for her to handle.

This is the exact opposite of how things go on Vanderpump Rules. For the most part, the workers at SUR adore and obey LVP. Lisa‘s employee Jax Taylor and occasional restaurant staffer Tom Schwartz came to her defense in response to the RHOBH drama.

During a Bravo interview Jax said, “I don’t really watch [RHOBH] that much, so I’m kind of clueless on it, but I don’t really see that happening.” This is not at all shocking. Jax and Lisa have always got along pretty well, no matter what he does at her restaurant SUR, so it make sense for him not to talk trash about his boss. He definitely could have said something more definitive to help the woman out, but he tried and I don’t blame him for being wary when it comes to sharing an opinion without any context.

Tom, who has admitted to crushing on LVP several times on Vanderpump Rules, was much more adamantly #TeamLisa with his defense. Tom said, “To me, it’s surprising because usually, the way I see Lisa is cool, calm, collected, the voice of reason. And to hear [her] in the trenches, it’s a surprise for me.” Tom thinks the world of Lisa, so it is not surprising that he would defend her against these manipulation claims or any other criticisms.

Tom also said, “I’ve never really seen her be manipulative, but I will say she has a way with words. She can win you over very easily with her words.” In his eyes, Lisa is just a charming women, so maybe the other women got this wrong? Tom praised LVP even further and went a little bit off topic when he said that she is “very convincing. She’s persuasive. And incredibly charming. Don’t get me started on Lisa.” So maybe it’s possible that Lisa is just a mesmerizing person who is easy for others to agree with? That could be a positive spin on what the RHOBH ladies have been claiming.

Whether you love LVP or hate her, it is nice to see that she isn’t fighting this war of words on her own since she has the Pump Rules cast to support her.
