Taylor Armstrong recently addressed a satirical social media post that falsely claimed she confirmed dating Kyle Richards for five months in 2016. The former 'Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' star took to Twitter to debunk the rumor, labeling it as 'complete bulls–t' and emphasizing that Richards is like family to her. Armstrong clarified that she never made such statements or had any romantic involvement with Richards.
The spoof story originated from a parody account inspired by Hunter Schafer's GQ profile, where the 'Euphoria' actress disclosed dating Rosalía for five months in 2019. Armstrong's followers were quick to point out the parody nature of the tweet, with some suggesting she should take legal action against the meme account.
Armstrong and Richards have been close friends since Armstrong's debut on 'RHOBH' in 2010. Richards, who was married to Mauricio Umansky at the time, announced their separation in July 2023 after 27 years of marriage. Armstrong, appearing on 'Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen,' expressed neutrality on the matter and wished Richards happiness.
Despite ongoing rumors about Richards dating country singer Morgan Wade, both parties have consistently denied any romantic involvement. However, their interactions on social media and a suggestive music video have fueled speculation. Umansky acknowledged the strong connection between Richards and Wade but stated that he has not pressured Richards to address the rumors directly.
