Armstrong Nephew Says 'Housewives' Should Go On, Premiere Pushed Back
The second season of Bravo's reality TV show "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" should continue as planned, with footage of Russell Armstrong edited out, his nephew said today on "Good Morning America."
The Los Angeles County Coroner confirmed Wednesday that the death of Armstrong, 47, the estranged husband of "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" cast member Taylor Armstrong, was a suicide. Bravo has not yet made a decision on the future of the show's second season.
Armstrong's suicide has divided his own family and friends over the role the reality show played in his death. Armstrong appeared frequently on the show with his then-wife, Taylor.
Armstrong, portrayed as controlling and unlikable in season one of the show, watched his marriage to Taylor collapse during filming of the show's second season. Taylor filed for divorce in July and accused her estranged husband of physical and verbal abuse in divorce papers.
Kelsoe, the 18-year-old son of Russell Armstrong's sister, Laurie Kelsoe, said he saw the stress the show placed on his uncle, but doesn't blame the show for his death.
Armstrong's stepmother, however, believes the show pushed her stepson over the edge.
"I know this show ruined his life," Gladys Armstrong told "GMA." Taylor and Russell were, at the time of his death, sharing custody of their 5-year-old daughter, Kennedy, who, Armstrong's business partner confirmed to "GMA," is not aware of her father's death.
Martin also defended Taylor Armstrong and told "GMA" he believes her actions and lifestyle are not responsible for her estranged husband's suicide.
