'You're having a nervous breakdown:' Taylor Armstrong begins to show the strain on Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills


It has been a devastating month for Taylor Armstrong following the suicide of her estranged husband on August 15.
But it was clear on last night's episode of The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills that the devastation began long before Russell Armstrong took his own life. 
As the housewives continued their trip to Camille Grammer's Colorado estate, filmed for the show months before, Taylor, 38, began a downward spiral that resulted in her crying uncontrollably over the break down of her marriage.

What began as a casual conversation between Kyle Richards and Taylor in the hot tub over a glass of wine escalated into a devastated Taylor sitting in a closet balling her eyes out and saying she wants to go home.
The reality star then massively overreacted to not being able to locate her make-up bag and had the rest of the housewives frantically searching for it as she stood in the bedroom swearing and cursing.
'She really seems disorientated,' Adrienne Maloof said worryingly. 'That is not a normal reaction to someone losing their make-up bag. She genuinely seems mentally distraught.'
Lisa Vanderpump meanwhile described her behaviour as 'irrational' adding: 'I believe that Taylor is drinking too much to cope with her marriage.'

As the women convened for dinner, Taylor still appeared incapable to pull it together, prompting Adrienne to tell her 'You're having a nervous breakdown.'
'Don't you think you deserve better?' Lisa Vandepump asked her over dinner. 
'No I don't think I know that,' wailed Taylor, to which Lisa responded 'Well there is the problem.'
'I'm in love with him and that makes me so sad,' Taylor continued.
As the women made their way home after the trip, Kyle and Adrienne discussed the previous evening and how worried they were about their friend.
'I have never seen her so skinny,' said Kyle with Adrienne responding: 'I think she has hit her breaking point.'

And it wasn't just the women who voiced concern over Russell and Taylor's relationship. 
During a boy's night out between, Kyle Richard's husband Mauricio, Lisa's husband Ken and Adrienne's husband Paul Nassif the three men talked about Russell's absence and what seemed to be up with the warring couple.
Paul disclosed that he had received an email from Russell stating that he was in San Diego and wouldn't be making the drinks out. 
'Who knows what goes on between them,' stated Ken Vanderpump who has previously voiced his negative opinion on couples seeking marriage counseling. 
'I'm glad they are going to therapy and i hope that works for them,' he said.
