The weekend before Russell committed suicide, Taylor spoke with OK! at Adrienne Maloof's private BBQ at "The Malibu Beach House" sponsored by Voli Vodka about how she was doing going through the divorce process from Russell.
And it sounded like although it was difficult, she and Russell were staying civil through the divorce process for their five-year-old daughter Kennedy's sake.
"I’m doing okay, surprisingly. I’m doing okay," Taylor exclusively told OK!. "I’m just trying to keep my daughter's life as consistent as possible. She’s at Legoland with her grandparents today, so it’s mommy’s day off. But I’m just trying to keep everything in her life consistent, and make sure she knows she’s surrounded by a lot of love."

"We are in an amicable situation so we’re just trying to co-parent the best we can," she added.

And Taylor was leaning on her Real Housewives of Beverly Hills co-stars, like Adrienne, for support.
"All the women have been supportive of her and nobody wins when going through a situation like that," Adrienne told OK!. "When you’re going through a divorce in a public forum it’s difficult for everybody, so we’ve all been supportive. Kennedy is the most important thing, but we all support her. It’s hard because she’s going through a lot but we also had to go through a lot as well."
Tragically, Radar Online has reported that Russell was found hanged in his bedroom on Monday night.
We hope Taylor has all the support she needs now after this terrible tragedy.
Russell's last interview will appear in OK!'s new issue on stands tomorrow.
