‘Housewives’ tapes episode about Russell Armstrong suicide: report

Bravo will air a special episode of “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” addressing Russell Armstrong’s suicide, according to a new report.

The cable network has already filmed the show, featuring several cast members, according to Entertainment Weekly.

Russell’s estranged wife reportedly did not take part in the episode, the website reported.

It is not known when the episode is scheduled to air.

The show’s season premiere is still on track for Sept. 5

Armstrong, 47, the condescending and callous hubby of “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star, Taylor Armstrong, 40, was found dead earlier this month after he hanged himself.

Although no suicide note was found, authorities said Armstrong was suffering from severe financial woes, a nasty $1.5 million lawsuit for allegedly scamming investors via his venture capitalist business and a deep depression about his crumbling marriage.

Armstrong became known to fans of the show for his sullen, sour attitude towards his TV-star wife — fighting and belittling her on camera, abandoning her at parties and undermining her at every opportunity — especially in front of their 5-year-old daughter, Kennedy.
