By exposing Russell and Taylor Armstrong’s past, we are left with the question” did he really beat her as brutally as she claims?
I don’t know why both premises; that she’s a grifter and she was beaten by this man, can’t both be true.
The full story of Russell Armstrong’s business dealings are in today’s Daily Beast, here’s an excerpt from the article:
According to people familiar with their ventures, Taylor’s most blatant tactic was to tell people that she was a member of the prestigious Ford family and by implication put a stamp of approval on her husband’s proposed investments. The MMR complaint makes a similar allegation: that she held herself out as a “Ford Family” member and falsely claimed others in the family were major investors in Russell’s business dealings. Taylor, through her attorney, denies that she ever portrayed herself as a member of “the Ford Motor Company family”.

I don’t believe for a minute that she was abused. If she worked for a crisis center why the hell wouldn’t she have enough sense to get out. Believe me if Russell was as controlling as she states she wouldn’t be sloppy drunk hanging over everyone and running her mouth about her miserable marriaqe. She said it herself that she didn’t want to go back to nothing being broke like in her childhtoood. She is a loser and she latches onto people who she thinks can help her the most. Word is she is now living with Kyle so it shouldn’t take too long to take her for a ride.
Why does she choose to come out with her stories now. Who does it help, Certainly not her daughter she claims to be so worried about. She is making this uo to covr the guilt for her role in his death because she knew that he didnt want to be on
RHWOBH. They both knew their scams were catching up to them and the truth would come out. She is just as guilty as him in ripping people off. She cant even come up with a reasonable explanation for all of the name changes.
Here and Kyle deserve each other just for the way that they treat Kim who is the most real person on the show.
I find her a sorry piece of trash. Bringing awareness to Domestic violence is commendable, but she is using it as a platform to make money not help another person in the same predicament. She will get hers. Karma is a bigger bish than she could ever be. Domestic violence is not something to be taken lightly. I have a few brave friends who have overcome and have moved on to help others without selling their souls to the almighty dollar. She can get a freaking job like everybody else or scope out the next mark. LOL. Eff a Taylor
I am not a Taylor fan and I don’t know what to make of her story, but I can’t blame her for being in survivor mode and selling her story to whom ever. She needs the cash. Can you blame her.
hello fraud – regardless of whether beatings occurred. If that can be proven, she is in a heap of trouble. And given it would have happened multiple occasions, I would guess they could slap her with RICO.
What was the name of the origination against domestic violence that Taylor was involved in ? Wonder what they think about all this airtime for herself (Taylor)? I really don’t know the message she is selling, for she didn’t get out of an abusive relationship until her husband killed himself. She is selling a bunch of whining, not on how she was able to survive and move on. I was in an abusive relationship for many years and was able to get out, moved on and enjoying life with my children and grandchildren. I was one of those woman if I didn’t get the help I needed and became strong for myself, for my children I wouldn’t be here today.. And yes I am remarried to wonderful man.. Again, what message is Taylor able to give to a paying audience?

I’m sure I remember seeing-reading a first-hand story from some lady who talked about being almost scammed by the at strings in Florida. They did represent her at that time- as being associated with ford motor family.
At Jassyca, I totally agree. Kyle is a fool for lapping up Tsylor’s ridiculous sob stories. She is worse than Lisa was with Cedric. I’ll take Kim over Kyle and Taylor any day, even though she is a bit awkward and troubled.
After watching Taylor last night, I was left with one question. Who took the photos? If she was asked during the Interview, I missed it. I did hear her say Russell went with her to the Dr. and sat with her in the chair the entire time. Presumably to prevent her from telling the truth. Why then would he take photographs of her eye? Also, didn’t she say the only time she had ever seen Russell cry was when she showed him the MRI? I must have missed half of the interview because what I heard made no sense. If he were there, he would have heard the Dr. Explain the MRI. Maybe you can fill me in on what I missed, if I missed anything?
Love her attorney’s bs answer to the “Ford FAMILY” accusation. No one said MOTOR COMPANY yet he inserts the phrase so he can pretend to tell the truth. Thanks, fool, by attempting a non-answer, now I know that’s exactly what she did. As for the ‘beating’, all I keep hearing / seeing is one specific incident. I don’t doubt he smacked her one time but to listen to Taylor’s exaggerations, it was a non-stop beating through all six years of their marriage. Sad that Kyle is stupid enough to believe a proven liar yet still seems to have a rather pissy attitude towards her sister (though now she’s smart enough not to show it on screen and just makes snippy implications during talking-head interviews) who sacrificed her childhood and some of her earnings to get Kyle on screen too plus pop for plastic surgury on her massive schnoz. Hoping Taylor steals her blind.
I agree it can be both and I believe it is both. I wonder if she will be fully exposed.. Won’t Bravo, and that silly Kyle, look like fools if so. Can’t wait!
