Russell Armstrong Autopsy: Suicide By Hanging

Confirming the saddening yet expected results, a final autopsy report has listed Russell Armstrong's cause of death as suicide by hanging.

According to TMZ, the husband of "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star Taylor Armstrong still has toxicology results pending for 6-8 weeks, though no drugs or alcohol were present at the scene of the incident.

And while the news of his death shocked those closest to him, in the days after Russell Armstrong's passing an overwhelming reality of both his personal and professional life has come to light, revealing a roller coaster ride of turbulence and stress

While talking with People magazine just weeks before his untimely death, Russell explained the pressure he had been feeling.

"It got really overwhelming. When you get a TV show involved and all the pressure, it just takes it to a whole new level. … We were pushed to extremes," Russell told.

Both he and his estranged wife, Taylor, were in the midst of a $1.5 million lawsuit, in which the couple was accused of pocketing funds and breach of contract by MyMedicalRecords.com.

Russell was also dealing with the end of his six-year marriage, as Taylor had just filed for divorce a month before, citing both physical and verbal abuse.
