   And Taylor possitive that Lisa spoke to papers about her skinny. A drive by looking could see she is a bag of bones. Crazy cannot even understand people might want to help her.. because if she was normal that whould mean her victim card might get revolked.

   I hear they are going to air it because the ratings have dipped.

   That’s gross. I hope that is NOT the case Bravo. I hope that the issue is because that was the focus of the story line it’s hard to show Taylor without airing those scenes.

   I hope the counsellor blurs his/her face. Obviously not a wise choice of profession.
   Is she thatdesperate for money ???? She can quash this—I wonder if his family will step in and try to do this. And perhaps take Kennedy away.

   Is the counselor Dr. Drew? He’d do anything to get publicity, and he’s had a successful and consistent track record of former celebrity patients who end up killing themselves one way or another after “treatment”, so it makes sense….

   No matter what Bravo puts on, we’re never going to know even a little bit of this story because if you google around, it was way more than just trashy reality drama. They’d got mixed up in stuff with more $$ than the Maloofs and also int’l intrigues.

   This is completely disgusting.

   So, he was a very private person. His wife got him into this show and He still tried to remain somewhat private. He didn’t share much about things like the other husbands. But, he knew that maybe he could get some connections through Bravo because shit was flowing downhill and at least shana,ford,taylor,oklahoma would be getting a check.

   She suggested that they get counseling because they needed it. He agreed. They taped it. Why did he do it? Well, why did he agree to do the show in the first place? Because she wanted him to. I am not sure he was as controlling as she indicates..

   Showing counseling sessions that are sure to reveal personal thought’s, with someone who killed himself partly because of shame and public humiliation is truly the sleaziest thing that I can imagine. Bravo and the mother of his child should be ashamed of themselves.

   Gosh, you make him sound like a helpless browbeaten man. And we all know who was doing the beating, amirite? (rimshot)

   Russell also wanted to do the show. Know why? Because he believed it would be the best advertisement of his success as an investor. He was a member of the Tiger 21 club, or something like that, with other investors who stated their wealth was between $10-100 million. He was also on the lookout for more clients, as it is not obvious he wasn’t worth anything close to that. So he goes on a show, rents a large house, let’s his wife spend money with abandon (as rich men do, all as an indication of their wealth), and hopes it shows him as a wealthy guy who has made great investments. “Let’s give him some of our money, too!”

   They probably filmed him doing a bunch of stuff that he thought would be shown. Playing golf with clients, making deals, etc. SO many housewives complain that all we are shown are the bad stuff..Camille said we never got to see a tender moment between her and her paid employee/friend which would’ve showed her in a positive light. Well, Bravo decided to place it in the lost footage episode to appease her. Others (DC ladies) said their charity work and family moments were cut short to give the Salahi madness more airtime.

   My point is that Russell probably had a false sense of security after filming, thinking he was getting free advertisment of his success, ala Lisa and Villa Blanca. Instead, we hardly saw him speak, and we heard Taylor talk shit about him all season. It made him look creepy and shady and no one probably wanted to work with him again. Add that to the fact, that his wealth was all an illusion (fake it to you make it), and he was left both ostracized and flat broke.

   He probably signed on to part two for a stab at redemption, only to learn at the end of filming, he would be vilified further. So he took him own life. ANd now, finally, Bravo is going to give him a voice..which will probably, in some ways, redeem him.

    I’m all about the bad taste, but this is REEEALLY in bad taste. I used to consider Taylor just a super-needy, energy-sucking “PlasHole™”, but has now skyrocketed to the most loathsome Horsewife ever…

    Did you guys see Taylor on Dr. Phil? First of all, she has had some more shit done to her face…then basically told Dr. Phil she’s broke. Then she went into these hysterical convulsion-filled rants about how she was so controlled by Russell and now she feels out of control. The whole thing just felt gross and sleazy to watch. I can not stand her.

    Don’t judge me, but I like Dr. Phil. But these past few shows have caused me to delete him off my dvr for a while. Where are the Alexandra updates? Or the housewives from last season…

    I think Taylor’s got that Michael Jackson plastic surgery addiction thing going on. Where you look in the mirror and only see things you want to change–that you think NEED to be changed. Maybe being broke will stop her. But I doubt it. She’ll keep going until she’s an unrecognizable freak.

    Last night on Entertainment Tonight they showed the pictures from Taylor and Russell’s wedding. She was 5 months pregnant, and I thought she looked beautiful. Surgery combined with anorexia has made her into a different woman. Even her hair looks thin and unhealthy. I think she now outwardly reflects her true Inner being. Sort of a reverse Dorian Gray.

    I didn’t realize she was pregnant when they got married. That’s interesting.

    Maybe that’s how she got him to marry her. She always said it was a business deal; 80% business, 20% romance. And then she started complaining. She got what she signed up for.

    @Classy Drunk

    I agree about the Dr. Phil thing. Until I see Alex popping out another baby and abusing gas cards while her Mom is getting plastic surgery because that is what every mother whose daughter is a slut/addict needs, I am not interested.
