(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Taylor Armstrong has reportedly invited her reality show co-stars to today's memorial service for her estranged husband.

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star has organised the final send off for Russell Armstrong who committed suicide by hanging himself nearly two weeks ago.

RadarOnline are reporting that Taylor decided late Tuesday afternoon to invite her cast mates after deliberating on whether she should or not.

"A lot of thought and consideration went into Taylor's decision to invite the entire cast," a source told the site.

"In the end, Taylor didn't want to exclude anyone, and even though she doesn't get along with all of them, Taylor wanted them there.

"The girls have been very supportive to her throughout this entire tragedy. Taylor needs her friends around her more than ever."

The site also reports that the 47-year-old financier hanged himself after he stopped taking anti-depressant medication to control his rage issues.

The couple's five-year-old daughter Kennedy will apparently not attend as Taylor "doesn't think it's in Kennedy's best interests to go to the memorial," the source added.

"Taylor doesn't want Kennedy to accidentally overhear someone talking about Russell's suicide. Taylor is protecting Kennedy, period.

"This little girl has been through enough with her parent's divorce and now having to deal with her dad's death." (C) Cover Media
