I have been thinking about Taylor over the past days. I know it’s never good to knock someone when they are down, please don’t see it this way. I am just expressing my thoughts with fellow viewers.
I am starting to agree with Lisa that Taylor is always the victim. I am not denying that something may have happened in her marriage but she does play a poor me card. Her breakdown in this episode is really difficult to watch. After reading numerous articles on the Armstrong’s business dealings and thinking about Taylor’s comments over the past seasons I have come to the conclusion that she is a fraud. Its come out in so many areas in the show.

It appears Taylor has this ridiculous need to keep up this lifestyle that is not her, she cannot afford and if stories on the internet are true it appears as though she has swindled people to get the material goods that she thinks are so important. She has absolutely lost herself and places so much importance on things that are not important. Taylor went around telling everyone that Adrienne was Kennedy’s godmother  – yet this was all bull. On the Reunion show Adrienne just squashed that statement.
Why did Taylor say that? Because of the prestige of the Maloof name?
She is having a breakdown because she has lied so much, she just does not know what is going on or who she is, she is totally lost. She behaved terribly towards Kim last season in which she finally admitted on this episode.
Last season when she was doing a video blog she said something along the lines of ‘ I want to show these battered women that they too can have a life in Beverly Hills.’ She does seems to have life all mixed up!
I also read something about her and rehab recently. She needs this big time. Taylor needs to find herself again. She has just lived such a delusional masquerade for so long. I would just hope that someone of her age understood what was important, it’s not money and status. Although Adrienne and Lisa are swimming in both they have a level of realism, compassion, humility and, appear to genuinely care for those around them.
The most important thing is being true to yourself and not deceiving others because in the end you are deceiving yourself.
It was totally inappropriate for her to talk to Kyle about Lisa (multiple times this season) having full knowledge that Kyle and Lisa were good friends. Again stirring the pot. She should have directed these thoughts to a neutral person – but of course Kyle did not play into it.

Taylor is really damaged on so many levels. So much so that this season is difficult to watch.
She has been caught out so many times, I find anything she says hard to believe. The most important thing in the world to her is money and what other people think – Very Sad! I hope she does go to rehab or a health farm and finds her true self. I am sure deep down she will learn to forgive and like herself.
