In this episode of “Undressed the Podcast,” hosts Pol Atteu and Patrik Simpson welcome Taylor Armstrong, famous for her roles in “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” and “The Real Housewives of Orange County.” The episode delves into Taylor’s experiences in reality TV and her personal struggles, and her thoughts on various hot or as Pol’ would say haute topics.
The conversation begins with Taylor recounting how she met Jeff Lewis and their long-standing connection. She reflects on the remodeling of Patrik and Pol’s house by Jeff Lewis, and mentions Pol’s coffee reading for Jeff, hinting at foreseeing troubles.
Taylor shares her journey from “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” to “The Real Housewives of Orange County,” initiated after her appearance on “The Ultimate Girls Trip.” She reveals that it was her idea to switch shows and discusses the authenticity of the Housewives’ residences, noting that many don’t live in the cities they represent on the show.
A significant portion of the episode is dedicated to Taylor’s personal struggles. She speaks candidly about her experiences with domestic abuse at the hands of her late husband, Russel, and his subsequent suicide. Taylor describes the aftermath of these events, how she found inner strength for her daughter, and how skiing in Vail provided a healing escape. She also talks about the physical and emotional scars left by the abuse, including the need for reconstructive surgery on her eye, now containing a titanium implant.
The hosts and Taylor also touch on the challenges and pressures of reality TV. They discuss how life events are magnified when filmed, the impact of not being invited back to the RHOC, and the importance of maintaining authenticity on camera. Taylor reflects on the mental toll of moving between shows and appreciates the friendships formed through the series.
The conversation veers into discussions of sexual identity, with Taylor clarifying her bisexuality and exploring the concept of pansexuality. This leads to a broader discussion about personal identities and preferences.
In the “Hot Topics” segment, Taylor weighs in on the Lizzo lawsuit and its parallels to Housewives storylines. She also gives her opinion on recent developments involving other Housewives, like Alexis Bellino’s new relationship and its impact on Shannon Beador.
The episode concludes with Taylor expressing her views on empowerment and setting boundaries, her upcoming lecture series, and how writing her book helped in her healing process.
Throughout the episode, Taylor’s resilience, growth, and insights offer listeners a deep dive into the life of a reality TV star who has faced significant personal challenges.
