According to RadarOnline, Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Taylor Armstrong is beyond hysterical with grief over her estranged husband’s apparent suicide.
Russell Armstrong was found hanging in the bedroom of his home in Los Angeles Monday night and was pronounced dead at the scene. He was 47.
Taylor “has been up all night. She is hysterical, and can barely speak. She has no idea why Russell would do this. She doesn’t know how she is going to be able to tell her daughter, Kennedy,” a source close to the situation tells us exclusively.
Taylor had recently filed for divorce, and their marriage had been in trouble for some time.
The upcoming season of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills was going to feature the former couple going to marriage counseling in an attempt to save their marriage.
No word on if Bravo plans on airing those sessions in light of his tragic death.
Russell had “been dealing with a lot of financial stress in recent months,” our insider tells us.
Oh my gosh! I am so sad right now! This news completely shocked me!
Russell Armstrong, the estranged husband of “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star Taylor Armstrong, was found dead of an apparent suicide …sources tell TMZ.
Our sources say Armstrong hanged himself. He was found hanging in his bedroom on Mulholland Drive.
We’re told L.A. City Fire Department arrived at his home and pronounced him dead at 8:16 PM Monday. Sources say a roommate found Russell and called 911.
We’re told authorities have not found a suicide note.
Taylor filed for divorce last month, after she claimed Russell physically abused her. We’re told authorities informed her of Russell’s death last night.
“Real Housewives” star Melissa Gorga is following in Kim Zolciak, LuAnn de Lesseps and Danielle Staub’s footsteps and releasing a new single. The New Jersey reality star/aspiring singer debuted her new single “On Display” on Ryan Seacrest’s radio show Friday morning.
Eddie Cibrian’s ex-wife, Brandi Glanville, is the newest member of ‘The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ and her presence is not welcome. All original six castmembers are back (was there any doubt) in the second season. The sophmore season will premiere on Bravo on September 5th, and it looks like there will be even more drama than last year!
This trailer is full of all sorts of goodies. We have Brandi and Kim Richards getting into it, with Brandi screaming “At least I don’t do crystal meth in the bathroom all night long, bitch!” She then yells “I’LL KILL YOU!” after a confrontation with Kyle and Kim. Kim fights back by calling Brandi a “slut pig”.
Taylor looks to be in the worst shape this season, but that could be because her marriage was falling apart. (She just announced she and her husband are divorcing.) And did Taylor have more work done to her face? What in the world is going on with her! Leave that face alone! It’s gonna slide right off one of these days!
I cannot wait!!

In what shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone who watches the show, the answer is Taylor Armstrong!
After putting her rocky marriage on display for the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Taylor Armstrong has filed for divorce from hubby Russell Armstrong, E! News has confirmed.
“It was a difficult decision but I have decided to file for divorce from Russell,” Taylor said in a statement to People. “Although we have tried our best to work out our differences, I have come to the conclusion that it is in the best interest of our family that we separate.”
And that wasn’t all.
“Together we are the proud parents of a sweet and wonderful little girl and she remains my number one priority,” Taylor went on. “I am sad for my marriage to come to an end, but am confident that this is the right choice for all involved.”
This news comes after the couple shut down rumors in May that they were splitting up.
Taylor and Russell wed in 2005, and have a 5-year-old daughter, Kennedy.
I wonder if she’ll be back for the new season of RHOBH? A single Taylor would make for interesting TV!
