And now, it seems that the world is about to get a look at the real inside story behind Taylor’s on screen struggles.
"Taylor's deal is with Simon and Schuster and the book will be out in February 2012,” a source close to Taylor tells RadarOnline.com. “It will be a memoir and the abuse she endured while married to Russell, as well as another abusive relationship she was in the past will all be detailed.

“Taylor is writing the book to put a face on women involved in domestic violence. She wants the public to know there are resources for battered women, and there is a way out.”
As RadarOnline.com previously reported, Taylor’s domestic violence woes are currently being addressed on the second season of Housewives, which was filmed before Russell’s tragic suicide.

During a drama filled tea party at cast member Lisa Vanderpump’s house, Camille Grammer confronted Taylor about the abuse, making for a fiery, tear filled showdown.
“We have all protected you, what you have told us about your marriage,” Camille said. “Because we don’t say he hit you! Because we don’t say that he broke your jaw or that he beat you up! We don’t say that, but now we’ve said it.

“You need to be honest because that’s not cool!” Camille said.
Russell, 47, was found dead at a Los Angeles home August 15. He is survived by wife Taylor and three kids: son Aiden (with ex-wife Barbara Fredrickson); son Griffin (with former fiancée Milette Fields); and daughter Kennedy (with Taylor).

This woman has no shame! Deplorable that she would write such a book with no evidence and the person she's making allegations is not here to defend himself! I feel so sorry for his children!!! Selfish witch!!!!

Well, good for her. Maybe at some point she will stop with the NEEDY, I'M SUCH A VICTIM crap and focus on raising her daughter who obviously has issues. Sorry Tayler, your book is going to bomb. She is vacant of self esteem.

If you watch the show you know who the aggressive one is with rage issues, yes ShannaLynetteHughes
aka "TaylorFordArmstrong". I don't believe a word that comes out of her mouth. I feel sorry for Russel's children.

Please contact Simon & Schuster and tell them u r against this book by a lying grifter. No evidence of the broken jaw... please. Shana Lynette Hughes made that stuff up to get a divorce and off the hook for her admitted role in their scams.

Is she going tell us how she claimed to be a member of the Ford (as in Ford Motor Co) family to lure investors? Will she talk about the lawsuit for her role in MyMedicalRecords.com? Go to StoopidHousewives.com for the REAL truth about her.

Is this a joke? Who would read her book besides herself?

I sell books and if this thing ever sees the light of day it will be a shame. What a waste of paper. This thing is predestined to be what we call in the book biz-"a dog". I refuse to buy or sell it at any price.
