So many Vanderpump Rules traditions, like the SUR float at the West Hollywood Pride Parade, the Jax cheating rumors, and Stassi’s infamous birthday meltdowns, had their start in season one. Jax crashed Stassi’s party in Las Vegas after they split up, engaging her new lover, Frank, in a shirtless brawl and then left.
Never one to be outdone, Jax then starts dating Laura-Leigh, a fellow SURver, whom he dumps after attending an AA meeting after having sex with her in several restrooms. He then confesses to Stassi that he did cheat on her to end the season.
