Taylor Armstrong Reveals Why She Doesn’t Watch RHOBH Anymore

Don’t ask Taylor Armstrong what’s going on in the latest season of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. She doesn’t watch it. Despite being an OG cast member, she’s not afraid to admit that the show is no longer her cup of tea. There’s no shade, it’s just not for her anymore.

The former diamond holder recently spoke to Us Weekly about RHOBH. She actually had a really sweet reason for not watching the show. She just doesn’t want to see her friends fight. We assume she’s using the word “friends” loosely here.

The outlet asked Taylor about Kyle Richards and all of the casting drama surrounding Season 14 of RHOBH. Taylor said it’s hard to imagine a world without Kyle on the show, but then she claimed she doesn’t watch the show anyway. She doesn’t have any skin in the game.

“I stopped watching mostly the Beverly Hills girls because I love them all so much and watching them fight,” Taylor shared.

She continued, “I know what that anxiety feels like when you’re in that situation when you’re fighting with your friends on camera and it’s just so much pressure. And I was like, ‘I can’t watch this.’ It’s upsetting me watching them yell at each other.”

In Taylor’s opinion, the Housewives and all of the bickering don’t align with her mission of women’s empowerment. She’s currently working on a project called Empowered Experts. It’s going to require a lot of hours of developing courses and hosting retreats. She didn’t feel like it was possible to indulge in the Real Housewives while also existing in that space.

Perhaps that’s why she dipped out of her friend role on The Real Housewives of Orange County after only one season.

She explained, “Sometimes it’s a little difficult when watching my friends fight on TV and then turning around and being empowered. It doesn’t really fit sometimes.”
