The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' Taylor Armstrong was present when estranged husband Russell's body was discovered after his suicide, according to multiple online reports.
Reportedly, when Russell failed to return Taylor's calls and text messages on Monday, she became worried and went to the friend's house where he was staying. Someone else then found 47-year-old Russell's body hanging.
The Los Angeles County Coroner's office confirms that the body was found by a friend, not Taylor.
Russell was pronounced dead by police Monday night, about a month after Taylor filed for divorce and went public with allegations that he had abused her.
The couple's marriage troubles were shown on Season 1 of Bravo's show, and trailers for Season 2 show an upset Taylor breaking down several times.
