New details about Taylor Armstrong

New details have emerged following the suicide of Russell Armstrong, the estranged husband of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Taylor Armstrong.

The reality TV star was present when her husband’s body was discovered yesterday.

Sources close to Taylor told TMZ that she and Russell had been regularly communicating and were supposed to meet on Monday afternoon, but he was a no show. She became worried and began calling his friends, but none of them had heard from him.

Russell pleaded guilty to battery charges and was ordered to attend anger management. Barbara and Russell split ways after Aiden was born, but seven years later Russell’s girlfriend Claudia Harowitnessed Russell slapping his son “very hard.” So Barbara issued a restraining order and restricted contact between Russell and Aiden.

As if the ladies of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills didn't have enough drama to deal with, try going through a divorce on top of all that catfighting.
"Unfortunately for me this year, there were a lot more tears, a lot more pain," Taylor Armstrong exclusively told us about her recent split with husband Russell Armstrong at this week's grand opening of Kendra Scott Jewelry in Beverly Hills.
How's their 5-year-old daughter Kennedy holding up in all this?

"I know it's going to be hard for me to watch a lot of it," Armstrong says of the series' sophomore season. "It's been such an emotional ride for me this year. And it's one thing to experience it, but then to watch it again on television and know that millions of other people are watching, it's going to be tough."
As for daughter Kennedy, Armstrong says, "She's doing great."
"I'm out and I'm spending a lot of time with my daughter right now," she said. "We're just trying to really take it day by day right now and trying to keep her life as consistent as possible and make sure she knows that she's surrounded by so much love and we're so fortunate that she really is."
