At the time, Jax said: “Katie loves to f-cking just start sh-t. That’s what she does.”
Flash-forward to April 30, when Katie and Ariana Madix appeared on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen. A guest asked Katie if she’d go to Jax’s Studio City, a bar he opened last fall.
“Listen. Me and Jax don’t get along. I don’t even know if I’m allowed in there. Why don’t we just go to Rocco’s that’s attached? … Jax’s is a bonus room. It’s not shade. It’s the truth.”

And then Jax got personal. “Katie’s just a miserable human being. She’s miserable,” he said. “Katie’s an accessory. She was Stassi’s accessory. Now, she’s Ariana’s accessory.”
