It is going to be a sad one for the Russell Armstrong’s final scene. The Real Housewives of the Beverly Hills regular has hanged himself with an electrical extension cord, as per the death certificate released today by Los Angeles County Department of Public Health.

Craig Harvey, Los Angeles chief coroner Investigator has earlier said that Russell was dead for at least 24 hours before his body was discovered but the listed date of death has remained as 15th August, a month after Taylor had filed for divorce amid claims of domestic abuse. However, the rumours have been flying as to who first discovered Armstrong’s body at a friends’ Mullholland Drive home that his wife Taylor Armstrong did when she found out. But, the authorities have kept the details close to the vest.

The death certificate released reconfirms that the death of Armstrong was ‘self-inflicted’. He was memorialized by Taylor and a number of friends including the fellow Real Housewives stars at the Forest Lawn in the Hollywood Hills, last Wednesday. Russell’s family has planned to transport his remains back to Texas for a second service.

Russell Armstrong was also said to be in debt of $1.5 million. Bravo is yet to formally announce the special episode which will get the views from the housewives on the recent tragic events. The second season of the programme is set to go ahead on 5th September, after being hastily re-edited. Taylor and Russell have a five-year-old daughter Kennedy. He had two sons from his previous relationships.
