But behind the glamorous façade of The Real Housewives, Armstrong had her own personal drama. She hid a very dark secret; her husband, Russell, had been physically, verbally, emotionally and financially abusing her for years. Following the familiar pattern of many domestic violence survivors before her, Armstrong witnessed domestic violence in her home as a young child – the abuse of her mother at the hands of her father. Thankfully, Taylor was able to break the cycle of violence. After six years of abuse with Russell, she found the courage to leave. Tragically, soon after, Russell took his own life. Armstrong and her young daughter, Kennedy, found themselves starting their lives over while the whole world watched. In 2012, Armstrong authored her first book, Hiding from Reality: My Story of Love, Loss and Finding the Courage Within. The autobiographical account of Armstrong’s life and personal experience with domestic violence became a New York Times bestseller. She is preparing to release her latest book "The Comeback Queen" this year.

    The Limitless Cost of Keeping the Secret (Ft. Josh Cloud) | Rooted Recovery Stories Ep. 192

    One secret kept him safe. One truth would leave him with nowhere to go. For Josh Cloud, music wasn’t just a dream—it was his identity. But after American Idol and the contract that followed stripped him of his ability to perform, he lost the only thing that made him feel alive. The silence left space for something else to creep in—fear, isolation, and addiction.In this deeply personal conversation, host @thepatrickcuster sits down with Josh to uncover the messages that shaped his silence—from childhood warnings that threatened his very survival to an industry that made it clear: If they knew who you really were, you’d be spit out and forgotten. He opens up about the impossible ultimatum he faced as a child, the trauma that followed him into adulthood, and the alcohol that became his only escape.But this isn’t just a story about loss. It’s about taking back what was stolen. Josh shares how he fought to reclaim his voice, his identity, and his purpose—and how he’s finally living on his own terms. This episode is a must-listen for anyone who has ever felt like they had to hide to survive.
