Is Taylor Armstrong bisexual? ‘RHOC’ star opens up about 5-year relationship with a woman before marriage

ORANGE COUNTY, CALIFORNIA: Tamra Judge, a cast member of 'The Real Housewives of Orange County,' decided to embrace her cowgirl dreams by taking the show to a ranch in Montana in the recent episode on June 28. She had hopes of repairing her friendship with Shannon Beador, but tensions arose when Heather Dubrow discovered that her professional life was being discussed and analyzed within the group.

Despite the rocky start, there was a positive moment during the trip when Taylor Armstrong, a former cast member of 'The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills,' revealed that she identifies as bisexual.

Currently married to attorney John Bluher, Taylor and John tied the knot in April 2014 in a beautiful beachside ceremony. It was a special occasion as Taylor's daughter, Kennedy, who was 8 years old at the time, walked her down the aisle. Since then, John has officially adopted Kennedy, cementing their bond as a family. This confession not only left the 'RHOC' ladies shocked but also intrigued about her relationship with other women.

Taylor Armstrong shocks 'RHOC' ladies as she comes out as bisexual

During a casual gathering in Montana, Taylor shared something personal about herself with the group. Tamra had asked Taylor and Jennifer Pedranti (Jenn) to reveal something unknown about themselves. Taylor took this opportunity to disclose that she is bisexual. Some of the ladies, especially Jenn, seemed surprised by this revelation. "You are?!" Jenn exclaimed. Taylor playfully responded, "Now are you nervous about me being in the bunkhouse with you?" However, Jenn clarified that she wasn't nervous, she just didn't expect Taylor to share that information.

Tamra informed the ladies that she already knew about Taylor's sexual orientation, so it wasn't a shocking revelation to her. Taylor had previously confided in her 'Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip' co-star that she had been in a "serious relationship" with a woman before marrying Russell. Taylor, who has been married to her current husband John H. Bluher since 2014, also revealed that she and the mystery woman were together for "about five years," which is quite a significant period considering many marriages don't last that long.

In her private confessional, Taylor further opened up, saying, "Most people are surprised to find out that I'm bisexual. Probably because of stereotypes. It's not something I openly talk about, but I am accepting of all individuals with kind hearts whom you can love." Following Taylor's reveal, everyone jokingly challenged Jenn to share something equally exciting, but she couldn't top it. Instead, she told the group about her experience working as a flight attendant. Gina Kirschenheiter chimed in, revealing that she had also been a flight attendant, which led to a deeper connection between her and Jenn.

Was Taylor Armstrong's late husband gay?

Back in 2011, Taylor Armstrong's husband, Russell Armstrong, who was known for his appearance on the reality TV show 'Real Housewives of Beverly Hills,' had some hidden truths about his sexual preferences. This exclusive revelation was reported by Radar Online. Some of these secrets had already been uncovered by Taylor, who had separated from Russell. Sources close to the 47-year-old disclosed that he was bisexual and had concerns about a forthcoming exposé that would disclose this information, implicating both him and Taylor. "Around six months ago, Taylor shared with a close friend that she had discovered evidence of Russell visiting a gay website called Adam4Adam.com on his laptop," an insider revealed to Radar. "He also spent a significant amount of time at the gym, but there were no visible changes in his physique. Taylor suspected that he was meeting men he had encountered on the website, rather than genuinely working out as he claimed." The insider further informed RadarOnline that when Russell was approached for a comment regarding the impending tell-all book, it was revealed that it would delve into explicit details about his bedroom preferences. "Not only would it expose Russell as bisexual, but it would also feature individuals who would openly discuss his specific sexual interests," the source divulged. "He was drawn to activities involving dominance and submission, including choking, rough play, and slapping." The businessman also had a history of violence in his past, which included allegations of abuse by Taylor and restraining orders filed against him by his ex-wife and an ex-girlfriend. Russell was found hanging in the bedroom of his friend's home on August 15, 2011, and was pronounced dead by the Los Angeles City Fire Department.
