Housewive Husband Suicide: Russell Armstrong
Taylor Armstrong filed for divorce last month after six years of marriage to the venture capitalist. The show frequently showcased their on-air fights and she told People he would sometimes grab her, shove her, throw things at her and pull her hair. He told the magazine the show had hurt their relationship.
TMZ reported the death as a suicide, but the coroner’s office told TheWrap no cause of death had been determined. No note was found at the house on Mulholland Drive where his body was discovered Monday morning.
