Wow … shocking news to pass along today. TMZ is reporting that Russell Armstrong, one of the featured husbands on the Bravo TV reality TV series The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills has committed suicide. As you may know, if you watched the show,Russell and his wife Taylor Armstrong seemed to have a, let’s say, tenuousrelationship as it was featured on the show last year. Since the first season aired, it was revealed by Taylor that she had been abused mentally and physically by her husbandRussell. As a result, Taylor filed for divorce from Russell. Previews for the upcoming second season seem to show Taylor in a very emotional state talking about the circumstances of her abuse. We are just weeks away from the premiere of season 2 of the Beverly Hills Real Housewives … and now we learn that Russell has taken his own life. Wow! Read on for all the known deets …
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. 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. He was 47 years old.
In all honesty, I never liked the way Russell treated Taylor on the show … and I greatly feared what she may have endured when the cameras were not rolling. Let the speculation begin but my guess is that if Russell really did take his own life, it was either due to guilt or fear of criminal reprisal … or both. It has been reported that the upcoming second season of the show will feature Taylor talking about the abuse she suffered while married to Russell. Additionally, it has also been reported that Russell Armstrong was accused of embezzling from investors. It sounds like he had many reasons to take the easy way out. We may never know why Russell Armstrongdecided to take his own life, if indeed that is what happened, but I’m certain we will be hearing more about this incident in the days and weeks to come. It remains to be seen if The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills will address Russell‘s death on the show … but my guess is that they will.
Again, I say … Wow!
