Tonight on Entertainment Tonight, Taylor Armstrong will break her silence about her marriage, the abuse, and the tragic death of her estranged husband, Russell.
In the interview Taylor describes the abuse, "He would grab me by one side of the hair on my head and bang the other side of my head against the car." Tearily she recounts an episode where Russell took her by the throat, pinned her against the wall, and threatened her life... all because she neglected to include vegetables with their pizza.
In a statement to ABCNews, Russell's lawyer Ronald Richards defended his client, saying, "At no time prior to Mr. Armstrong’s death did Taylor Armstrong file a police or medical report indicating she was the victim of domestic violence."
When asked about why she is speaking out now knowing that Russell is not here to defend himself, Taylor responded, "He doesn't need my protection anymore, but there are a lot of women in this world that probably do."
Bravolebrity News & Gossip has written an article dedicated to Taylor's charity which helps battered women and children.
Reuters is reporting that Taylor will also appear on an upcoming episode of Dr. Phil. Watch excerpts of tonight's ET interview below, and to find airtimes check local listings or ET's website.
