Ariana Madix<\/strong> is comfortable speaking her truth.<\/p>\n

During a Watch What Happens Live<\/em> appearance following last night’s Vanderpump Rules<\/em> season premiere<\/a>, Madix’s co-star Jax Taylor<\/strong> suggested her reluctance to marry and have children with long-term partner Tom Sandoval<\/strong> (with whom she recently purchased a home) was due to the fact that “she likes women.” Shortly after the interview aired, Ariana responded to Jax’s claims in a message shared to Twitter.<\/p>\n

“i DO like women [laughing emoji] AND men. it’s called being bisexual. ever heard of it? #thisisnthard,” she wrote, echoing a similar point made by Jax’s wife Brittany Cartwright<\/strong> on WWHL<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Jax’s comments about Ariana’s sexuality trailed friendship tensions between himself and Tom, which audiences saw unfold throughout yesterday’s Vanderpump Rules<\/em> episode.<\/p>\n

“I have a hard time with him coming at me because I bought a house, because I got married,” Jax told WWHL<\/em> host Andy Cohen<\/strong>, who was quick to note that Tom’s frustrations were prompted by Jax’s competitive attitude.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

“He was saying that you were trying to one-up him,” Andy explained, referencing Jax and Tom’s confrontation during the premiere.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

According to the TomTom co-owner, it was Jax’s attitude about their respective real estate milestones that rubbed him the wrong way.<\/p>\n

“When I’m getting ready to move into my house, you’re like, ‘How much is it? What’s the square footage?'” Tom told his friend, adding that purchasing a house was “like [his and Ariana’s] wedding day, in a sense” because of her personal thoughts on marriage and kids.<\/p>\n

“I’m telling you about something that I’m so excited about, and you told me about how you’re going to do better,” Tom continued. “It felt like just a one-upping every step of the way.”<\/p>\n

“How would I one-up him?” Jax asked Andy near the end of their WWHL <\/em>discussion. “His house is bigger than mine.”<\/p>\n
