However, fans felt stunned to see Jax and Kristen return to Bravo. Because the network fired them in 2020 after season 8, their past racist actions against former co-star Faith Stowers have resurfaced.

But the end of Vanderpump Rules season 10 also featured Kristen’s comeback. And Jax appears in the trailer for season 11, which debuts on January 30. Spoilers for The Valley reveal Jax on a miniature Ford Bronco for kids. And he waves to neighbors who include Kristen and her boyfriend, Luke Broderick. 

But Brittany also appears in the sneak peek.

But fans expressed mixed reactions. For instance, one wrote, “Does this look terrible? Yes. Will I watch it? Also yes.”

And another gushed, “Jax and Kristen are meant for TV! Can’t wait to watch!!” However, one critic argued, “Hard pass! You can’t fire someone from the network and then bring them back like nothing happened.”

And one annoyed commentator shared, “Can’t wait for this to flop! Who cares about this cast. Immediate no. You can’t ‘take a shot at adulting’ when you’re 45 (Jax). Like you ARE an adult. The childlike POV of this completely doused my enthusiasm,” noted other remarks.
