Jax Taylor Got New Tattoos in Honor of His Son, Cruz: Find Out the Meaning (PHOTO)
The Valley dad showed off his brand-new ink dedicated to his pride and joy: his kid, Cruz Cauchi.
Jax Taylor's tattoo collection has officially grown by one more. The Valley cast member is known to sport some serious ink — from his matching tattoos with his ex, Brittany Cartwright, to the skulls on his arms. And he just got a brand new set of tattoos over the weekend in honor of his 3-year-old son, Cruz Cauchi.
Jax took to his Instagram Story where he showed off his new tattoos, inked on his neck behind his right ear. Jax got the numbers of Cruz's birth date — April 12, 2021 — tattooed horizontally in a serif font on his neck. The Jax's Studio City owner also got an Aries symbol, which is a ram, tattooed on top of the birth date. This was also significant to Cruz, who is an Aries, since Jax himself is a Cancer.
Jax chose not to caption the photo, instead he tagged the Toronto tattoo artist, Mayflower Ink, who did the tattoo for him.
Jax took to the comments of the artist's post on her Instagram feed, where he praised the artist for her work and thanked her for giving him his first neck tattoo. "Literally coming back to Toronto just for another piece from you, such a relaxing calm experience and your shop is beautiful and I love my new ink," he wrote.
Details on Jax Taylor's Tattoos
Although Jax has gotten some pretty wild tattoos over the years, he doesn't have too many regrets about them. "I love all my tattoos," Jax once shared with BravoTV.com. "I love them all, so yeah. No worst tattoos."
This adorable tribute to Cruz is one tattoo that Jax won't regret. Especially since his son means so much to him.
Jax Taylor says his relationship changed after the birth of his son, Cruz
During an October 11 episode of his podcast, When Reality Hits, Jax opened up about how his son, Cruz, changed his relationship with Brittany. The dad of one explained that he wished he had prioritized his relationship more after his son was born. "I mean, you should always put your kids first, don't get me wrong," he said.
"But you gotta have a date night. You gotta have talks, you gotta go on walks, you gotta go on vacations together," he continued. "It's OK to leave your child with the grandparents for a while and make sure you set aside some time for your wife or husband, because it'll happen like what happened with me."

Regardless, Jax always makes it clear how much he loves and appreciates his son and adores being his dad. "The best thing I have ever done with my life.. How beautiful is he," he wrote this spring on Instagram.
In fact, on his birthday this year, he posted the sweetest tribute to Cruz. "Happiest of birthdays to my special little man, mommy and daddy love you so much and we are so proud of you. You are the best thing to happen to both of us and we love watching you grow every day. I am beyond blessed to be your dad you are the kindest, happiest little boy on the planet you amaze me every day," Jax wrote. "Having you for a son has been the greatest gift life has given me. For all that you have been, for all that you are, and for all that you have yet to be. I always be by your side for the rest of my life. Thank you for making me a dad. I love you son, Happy 3 birthday!"
