Is that comment about 'friendship' intended to be a jab at the concerns Lisa expressed about yours and Kyle's blossoming friendship?

Real friends are great. I think Lisa is right to question why you stirred Camille up. It's one thing to be neutral, and it's another to play both sides.

You are so real. The LA GAY'S LOVE YOU!!!

Taylor, I do believe Lisa is wary of your friendship with Kyle because of the mess that you help start in New York. Whether you did it intentionally or not, it seems that what was said by you only added fuel to the fire. So I don't think Lisa is jealous as much as she is cautious about your friendship with Kyle.

love you but i have to say that after seeing you keep turning away from lisa at the restaurant made me understand more how kim felt at that basketball game when she said she felt alone because you kept turning your back on her. i think you seem wonderful but your body actions show differently. its okay to have your own little "things" between friends but to make another person feel left out........

Taylor I think you are so sweet and genuine! You are always happy for your castmates success and happiness. It's refreshing to see because on this show theres quit a bit of cattiness going on. I really hope you find real happiness in your marriage and if not then I hope you find someone amazing to fulfill your every need. Life is too short and you really seem to deserve the very best!

Taylor, As I watch the show and watch you interact with the other women and your husband it seems that you are very unhappy in your personal life. I think that you married your husband for other reasons then being in love. One should never enter into a marriage as a business arrangement and then get upset when there is no undying love. Its not to say that Russell and you dont love each other, because I think that you do, but to what extent? Is he your soul mate? You asked Kyle how long it took for her and Maurico to become friends after marriage, well the answer to that is, they were friends before the marriage and they got married because they have an undying true love for each other, there was no business involved.

I think that Russell is treating you like he treats all his other business partners, except with you there is a fringe benefit as he gets to sleep with you. You need to do some deep soul searching and make the decision if you want to stay in this marriage. Does he make you truly happy? Does he leave you feeling utterly and completely alone? Does he fulfill you? and heres the big question. Would you want your daughter to grow up and obtain the same kind of marrriage that you have? or do you want her to have the marriage made of love, respect and friendship? Youre daughter is watching you guys and learning from your actions. Make the right choices.

Right now, you are living in denial and not wanting to admit that you are miserable and you are making excuses for how Russell treats you, You laugh at your friends (Lisa and Kyle) when they try to talk you about it. you shouldnt do that, they are only concerned for you. But, in the end only you can make the choice that is right by you. SHould you stay in a marriage that has love even if its not the all powerful HOT love like Kyle and Mauricio has or should you stay in your so so marriage? I think you settled for money and not love. You are now only realizing that money does NOT buy you happiness. What do you want? BUt before you can make any decision, you need to know who Taylor is and what she wants, plus you need to accept and understand that you deserve to have LOVE, everyone deserves to have that all powerful LOVE that makes your heart ache and makes you extremely happy at the same time.

PLEASE TAYLOR GO GET COUNSELING and if Russell wont go with you, GO ALONE. Remember that you are setting an example for your daughter and she will grow up and find a man exactly like her father and she will too have a loveless marriage because you taught her that is all there is to know.

RUN TO THE COUNSELOR and find out what Taylor wants and how you can obtain it. GOOD LUCK and best wishes.

I whole heartedly agree with introducing friends to other friends. I also agree though that sometimes your "core group" of friends the dynamic is slightly off for a moment when this changes. Eventually everything will fall back in to place.

Hi Taylor - The lunch was definately a little weird. After I thought about it, I wonder though if maybe Lisa wants in on you opening up with Kyle about things. Lisa seems like the person that people go to for support or friendship. Maybe she felt left out and that is where that came from. The Camille thing... darn it - as much as she's rubbed me the wrong way all season, I was hoping I wouldn't feel sorry for her when Kelsey pulled his crap - but I did. Nobody deserves that. But that doesn't take back a speck of what she did or showed herself to be leading up to that. Kelsey - what an ACTOR pulling off those fake comments etc. She says he suggested she go on RHOBH - I'm wondering if he knew she would be hated on and then he wouldn't look so bad in the public eye for leaving her. Thinking everyone would say, NO WONDER - like they are. Tricky not so slick Kelsey.

You make a lot of excuses but I believe that you are an opportunist. I understand what Lisa was saing and she was right. Stop making excuses for your husband too, he is like toast, dry

I don't see Lisa being jealous of your friendship with Kyle for pure friendship's sake.

I think she sees you for what you are and is protective over her friend. I have had my own experiences with "needy" social-climbing people, and yet, I do not listen to my best friends and go on to sympathize and coddle the 'user' much to the chagrin of my friends. It never fails to interfere with my personal life. You people can drain the life out of a block of wood, and it does affect others connected to the victim. (I am not sure if you recognize this or not.)

Lisa is a happy, solid person who helps those who are personally suffering, (i.e., Cedric, her adopted son), so for you to insinuate that she is jealous is laughable. If I were a manipulative and passive-aggressive gold digger, I would take her stiff arm as a clue to change my strategy.

why was Taylor behaving so childishly at the table with Kyle and Lisa? Lisa was asking legitimate questions, and Taylor just turned her head and smiled at Kyle. if she didn't want to answer her questions, she could've taken the assertive (adult) approach, and explained why.

i also think Lisa was on to something when she said she thought Taylor might've stirred something up with Camille and Kyle. something to think about!

You fueled the argument between Kyle and Camille and tried to look like the good guy to both of them. You've made it clear that you married for money and now want more. Now you want to get between Kyle and Lisa............What's wrong with you?????????

Honestly I didn't like how Lisa commented on your being open and honest. Every marriage has some up and downs. That doesn't give a right for anyone to know and/or comment. It felt like she wanted to know more even when you were not willing to share. Every marriage go through their up and down...

In reference to your third paragraph, I don't think Lisa has a problem with you and Kyle being friends. I don't think she is that petty. BUT, showing up at a dinner that has been planned by Lisa for a catchup with Kyle, is disrespectful and rude. You even commanding Lisa not to be jealous, was callous and a slap in the face. Obviously you guys (you and Kyle) were a bit sauced after your drinks, and you forgot your manners, as did Kyle. I understand that women needs friends, especially when the home life is less than satisfactory, but Kyle isn't your saviour. Spend more time with your husband. It sounds like that's where you need to be right now.

We have fallen love with you on this show! You are amazing, sweet, and exude glamour and class! You are the shining star to us!

Loves from Nebraska!

I totally agree with you Taylor! As a woman who experienced the same situation as Camille, it is one of the most difficult things a woman can go through. She is a strong lady, and she will get through this with the support of family and friends. One day when she is with a man who treats her with the respect she deserves; she will be able to look back on her experience and see how it made her grow as a woman. Women should uplift each other instead of tearing down one another!

Taylor, I wasn't sure what to make of you in the beginning, but you have emerged as a "REAL" housewife with real emotions and feelings. I hope Russell gets his head out of his excel spreadsheets and realizes what an exceptional woman he's married to.

I agree with you Taylor..I felt bad for Camille and the way she was treated. I wished she had used better judgement and stayed in California. Oh, she does not seem too broken up...I guess the $$$$ will help her adjust and she and her daughters will be fine. Hope so.

I am not a Camille fan, but my heart went out to her last night also. Very sad.

I agree with you 100% about having many great friends! I think Lisa is jealous of your growing friendship with Kyle... Looks as if she's always used to being on top. I LOVE your strength but you need to stand up for yourself when it comes to how you feel in your marriage!

Taylor can you relate to the fact that sometimes, even if you have many friends (as I'm sure Lisa has - most women do), sometimes the perfect thing is to get together with one best friend, who gets us in a way that no one else does. I think you would benefit from learning how to like yourself more, instead of wondering if everyone else does. "Happiness is is wanting what we have, not in having what we want". Unknown

Awww Taylor, you're sweet. Sometimes I think you might be upset you said anything to Camille that nite in NY. Go ahead say you made a mistake and shot off your mouth when you shouldn't have and be done with it!!! But for the most part,I think you are a real sweetheart.

Great Blog Taylor!!

I do understand what your saying regarding friends connecting, but you remind me of a kid who sets off the firecracker then runs out the room, comes back in and says "What, cant we all get along?" Sorry, Lisa's right on this one. Kyle has defended you to her sister and Lisa but I think they are right in this one and you are the one who owes an apology.

You knew your husband was a dry. person, when you marry him, So I think now you are getting a little famous and on tv, you want to get a wild side and get freedom, And make it look like all the blame on him

Taylor, you are a true gem! I do NOT agree with Lisa (much as I love her) that you were the impetus for what happened in New York at the restaurant that first night.

Anyway, you are always very gracious and fun-loving. Always stay that way, and don't ever let anyone else make you feel that you need to stop behaving the way that you do. It is very obvious to me, that you are a truly thoughtful and intelligent woman.

"A rising tide raises all ships." Just because you and Kyle have become friends, does not deminish the friendship that she and Lisa have together, and Lisa shouldn't feel threatened by your friendship with Kyle.

Camille has surely brought much of this upon herself, however, I agree that it was sad to see her have to go through this. She was gracious to Kelsey to come out to the Tony's and be by his side. But, like I feel that he set her up to be on the Housewives show so that he could set up his departure, I feel that he gave her false hope, by having her come out to the Tony's and saying that perhaps they could have a romantic weekend and get things back together, only so that the alarm bells wouldn't sound at the Tony's, if his wife wasn't there with him. Kelsey Grammer is a piece of work...but then again, perhaps two like personalities were drawn to each other (Camille and Kelsey...I don't know what Kayte is gonna be like...time will tell.)

About your comments on Camille's situation, I may not be her #1 fan, but also felt sad for her while she was at Mason's dance class. Camille was right when she measured the unfairness of being the only alongside her children during the marriage crisis, while her then-husband was having fun at the other side of the country. I am a believer of "what comes around goes around", and, although it could also apply to Camille, now I am talking about her ex.

On the other hand, you are right about friendship, but we humans are not perfect and jelousy is part of human nature.

I think you are wonderful. Hopefully, you realize that too! Your perspective on friendships is exactly how I feel. Sometimes, my seemingly disconnected friends SHOULD meet and become friends as well because THEY have so much in common. It was sad to see Camille put on a front in spite of being tossed to the curb. That said, she has not been a pillar of behavior this season when constantly assuming everyone (especially Kyle) is jealous of HER! Now, she knows there is nothing to be jealous of...

Lisa is just honest and doesn't have a lot of confusing layers. If she feels left out, she will express that. If she feels she can't break through a phony veneer with someone, she will get a bit frustrated.

your husband treats you so poorly, I wish you could find the courage to tell him that and stand up for yourself. he seems so cold and emotionally unavailable, I am not sure how you can make that situation work. good luck.

I love RUSSELL! You guys are adorable. And I just saw a photo with the two of you talking to Prince Charles. Holy WOW, Batman! The Husbands of Beverly Hills Rock! I think Bravo should stop making Russell look so anti-social, he and Taylor are great. And Russell's relationship with Kennedy made me realize he cares, he's just guarded.

Friendship has much to do about trust and I sincerely think Lisa does not trust you, and with good reason. Enough said.

I felt for Camille too, Taylor. But I must say that such a curt dismissal of someone that you've been married to for 13 years -- someone with whom you have children -- demonstrates that there was no love lost and is reflective of a seriously deep disconnect that has probably been there for some time.

If I hadn't already known about the divorce, I would have predicted it when Camille hesitated to move to New York after being all cozy with Nick in Vegas. Home is where the heart is. I think Camille loved hanging out with Nick, the rich BH lifestyle and the "A" list name; but Kelsey--she could take him or leave him. He felt that. Nick is ALWAYS around -- wife and all sometimes-- so what -- Camille just holds hands with him and kisses him on the lips and it's all good innocent friendship? Are we prepubscent and unaware of errogenous zones?? I don't think so.

Kelsey knew what was going on. His wife was displaying that relationship on national TV. Do you really think that there wasn't gossip on the set??? He heard that and had probably already vibed it, so his pride compelled him to bail. Watch out b4 Russell makes that same decision--not because you're cheating on him, but because you appear so unhappy.

Before my blissful marriage, I was caught up in the rat race and it was brutal. My schedule simply was NOT under my control and that's just a fact. I know that the lack of companionship can be frustrating. But if you love Russell -- which means that he isn't being cold or abusive in any way because who could love someone like that? -- just make sure that your alone time together is quality time and have fun hanging out with friends. Bring a fun girlfriend to the social events; enjoy yourself knowing that you have a loving hubby to cuddle up with at home.

As for Lisa. I don't think she's really jealous of you. She's being protective of Kyle. She thinks that you're two-faced and that you told Camille that Kyle called her insecure. I doubt that was your intent. You were probably trying to convey to Camille that you ladies were merely speculating about a possible reason for her emotional state and just trying to comfort Kyle regarding the misunderstanding. But Camille took that as gossip about her -- an accusation that she is somehow less than perfect -- which we all are. If you haven't already, you should have a one-on-one with each of the ladies and then a final burying of the hatchet with everyone altogether, each willing to recognize her own errors/imperfections, ready to give one another the benefit of the doubt and move forward in peace. Taylor the peacemaker. I like that and I see you in that role because you are really sweet.

Hi Taylor, You are absolutely correct. We can never have to many friends. Theirs no such thing. It seems as though as a young woman, you were very sprited in highschool and college. My son played football. I know how it works. The most popular girls were cheerleaders(I had plenty of cheerleaders in my home), they were the homecoming queens, usually the cheerleaders were the most spirited on campus, they loved their school and represented it well. Cheer leading is a very competitive sport. I consider it a sport. With that said. What you had said about your visualization of one day Kennedy would be receiving her college diploma. It was very sweet, but your getting way ahead of yourself, Kennedy's not yet in kindergarten. You have many years of fun ahead of you. Youth cheer leading starts at 7. What fun you and Russell will have when one day hopefully your daughter wants to follow your footsteps and cheer. Russell, being a macho man can enjoy watching his daughter cheer and will have a little extra bonus of actually watching a football game. Who knows with the experience you have, you could coach the team. I hope Kennedy is already in some form of gymnastics. With your experience(hopefully Mama is already showing some moves) she'll already be ahead of the game.I read somewhere that in college you were state champions. That's a huge accomplishment.Take care Taylor. You are a girls, girl all the way.

Taylor, I did not like the way that you crashed a lunch, and then sat there and mocked Lisa when she was trying to give you advice.

Hi Taylor,

I am so happy that you went home to your husband last week. I know all to well it would have been easier for you just to stay. But for what? And what would that have proved. Russell looks like a very beautiful man, maybe the spotlight just isn't him. And if you guys had turmoil surrounding this party I can truly understand why he didn't want to be bothered. He wasn't rude but just tired.

As for Lisa, don't worry that will pass...some of us can't deal with a 3rd person in our mix. But she will come around to see that you are a really good person and friend as well.

I hope that your daughter is doing better.

Taylor, I don't think Lisa was being rude to you, I think she just wanted to spend some alone time with a friend - nothing wrong with that. I'm sure when you have your personal talks with Kyle you feel the same way. Lisa is right, you are the one who stirred the pot and you have not owned up to it yet, you need to come out and say what you did - then again, I'm sure it will be on the reunion show. I could see you listening closely to Maurico's Mom and the advice she gave to Paul and Adrienne. Did you ever think counseling is what you and Russell need? I bet he probably wouldn't go anyway. I'm sorry to say but I don't see your marriage lasted long, you need to have your own voice or you will never be happy. I wish you all the luck in the world, I don't want to see you get divorced but you guys definitely need help!!!

Well said! I think we are all seeing a different side of Camielle. I hope the cast stays the same & no one leaves. Love you all!! This show is my guilty pleasure!! Thank you for letting us all into your lives! Sometimes it brings comic relief after a hard day, & other times it brings tears to my eyes, but definitely never a dull moment!

Well written blog Taylor. You seem like a compassionate person, and you have certain spunk about you. I think there is something that I like about each of the women after watching the season. I hope all you ladies return next season.

I'm not sure what I think about you yet. In my opinion YOU were the one being catty when you horned in on Lisa & Kyle's lunch. Lisa didn't say a word about anything and you acted like a junior high student holding Kyle's hand and pretending to be funny as you delivered the "I know your jealous of our bonding" line.

Who is really jealous at that table? I'm pretty sure it is not Lisa.

BRAVO to Lisa for calling Taylor out on stirring Camille up in New York which caused her to attack Kyle at dinner!! Love love love LISA.....She called a spade a spade!!

I can't wait for the reunion becuase I have a STRONG feeling that its is going to come out that YOU are the one who started the fight between Camille and Kyle. You are a trouble maker!!...... plain and simple!! Bloop Bloop Bloop!!

Based on how the scene unfolded on last night's episode I wouldn't be so quick to infer that Lisa does not want Kyle to be friends with you or that she does not feel heartfelt "JOY" in your friendship with Kyle. Seems like Lisa was planning a meal with Kyle and Kyle alone. Seems like Kyle invited you along and did not tell Lisa until they were seated. Seems like it was a childish and unwarranted surprise only aggravated by you and Kyle playing silly kissy-kiss and holding hands. That stunt alone alienates the third girlfriend. Soooooo..... Don't get critical and all passive-aggressive on Lisa.

I totally agree with you, Taylor. Although I am not a huge fan of Camille - I was impressed that she went on with the show and put on that dress and put on a smile even though she was dying inside. I don't know many women who could or even would do that... It was heart wrenching.

I've liked you the whole show, everything about you. Your kind, compassionate ways and the way you care about everyone equally. I don't like the way you and Kyle both treated Lisa at the lunch table. Lisa was insecure and yes, a little jealous and the least you both could have done was include her in your little team. I'm sure you've felt left out before and a bit jealous. You just weren't yourself at that table and your cocky, newfound attitude was a turnoff.

I found your behavior at Lisa's and Kyle's dinner very immature. You literally turned your back on Lisa and laughed at her with Kyle. It was a highschool cafeteria moment, with nice linens and wine. Lisa is right to be cautious around you; you appear to lack the backbone necessary to be forthright, honest and dependable in friendships. Instead of insinuating that Lisa respect your newfound friendship with Kyle, you should've respected their longstanding friendship that evening and let them dine and bond alone.

dont break up lisa & kyles friendship.... have some respect....

i'm in agreement with the other posters... Lisa is not jealous. (nice dig in your blog there about it.) she is concerned about what you are doing behind Kyle's back, such as your little talk with Camille in New York AFTER they sorted things out. you keep arguing with Kim stating you never said Camille was insecure when you most certainly DID say that. you are without a doubt Machiavellian. Lisa is correct to be concerned. additionally it was rude of you to partake in your little "inside joke" at the lunch with Kyle when you were giggling like children all the while looking at Lisa saying "na na na na na na." Please.

Taylor. It was in poor taste for you to crash a lucheon. It was also in poor taste when you sat there and laughed at Lisa when she was giving you advice.
