Taylor Armstrong: Reality TV Saved My Life!
by Hilton Hater at .Taylor Armstrong wants to make it as clear as possible: her late husband beat her often and may have murdered her.
Since the August suicide of Russell Armstrong, this horrific Real Housewife has gone out of her way to paint a negative picture of her daughter's father, giving multiple interviews that detailed Russell's abuse.
Taylor Armstrong: Open mouth. Insert foot. Repeat.
The latest despicable example? A chat with KTLA-TV in which Taylor hypothesizes that Russell may have killed if her not for the higher power above. No, not God. Bravo television.
"I was in an abusive relationship for six years," Taylor said. "If the cameras were not in my life, I might not be sitting here today. A lot of domestic violence situations end in murder-suicide, versus just suicide. I have my daughter with me today, and by the grace of God and, perhaps, reality TV, I'm sitting here and so is she."
Why does Taylor continue to speak out about her personal problems, throwing Russell farther and farther underneath the bus with each interview?"We're all put on this earth with a plan, a mission, and we're handed a very specific mission through a tragedy," she says. "And If I don't do something with it I'm not doing right by other women, and men, who might be in a dangerous situation."
To anyone who watched the most recent episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, it's clear: Taylor really is all about helping others.

I am truly appalled and annoyed by the ignorant statements by people judging someone that went through something horrific for the way she is dealing with it. Unless you have been there and gotten out of it yourself then you have no valid opinion in this matter. If you haven't been there then the only valid thing you can do is be quiet or be supportive. There is a wrong way to do everything but not always a right way. In this situation the only right thing is to get out of it and deal with the healing the best way you can. NTM since this is pubic knowledge she has almost no way of hiding it and should not be crucified because she doesn't deal with it the way everyone would like. There's no way to please everyone and this is not a situation that is meant to please. No one wins here. I'm sure we all have something in our lives that we have done or handled in a way that we would be condemned if it were made public. http://rlynette.wix.com/myblog
While I am in NO WAY condoning violence against women, I have to say that Taylor saying reality tv saved her life is a very ill thought out, immature and selfish thing to say. IMO, Russell committed suicide IN PART due to the fact that his life was about to be exposed to everyone. Is she happy that her daughter is going to grow up without a father? Or is she happy that she now is free to screw around with any guy she wants and live the life she has always sought out without being tied to a (once) rich man that has given her everything she and her daughter have ever wanted?
First of all you guys that are saying poor Taylor must not be aware that she threatened Kim to 'beat her ass Oklahoma style' whatever that is. But shes the one getting beat AND said she was poor once and would NEVER be again and thats the reason she got over her marriage with Russell. His business ventures were failing and she had ran up all his credit cards. They were about to be bankrupt and she didnt like it. Im sorry for those who are truely abused but shes making claims against someone who is not able to rebut her claims sounds like attention she wants and i dont believe her dramatics. She spent 60 thousand dollars on a lame birthday party for a baby!! Didnt look like she was all that afraid of Russ back then. Maybe somethin toxic leaking out of those ducklip implants she has! Im sorry but her stories dont add up and if it doesnt make sense then its probably not true.
I heard taylor talk with dr.phil, she said she just wanted peace, i fell to my knees, i have said that more times then i can count about my abusive ex husband, i too, hid it too good, so good that people didnt believe, it, good bless taylor and her little girl,
Krys you obviously know nothing about abusing relationships, or else you wouldn't be making those silly accusations. Taylor saw a chance to have a way to protect herself and took it. Since she was going to be on tv at any given moment it saved her from being beat. At least, in places that would show. Taylor found her voice, and I'm proud of her for using it.
