Russell Armstrong's parents and family didn't attend his memorial that was held at Forest Lawn in Hollywood on Wednesday, Breaking Celebrity News is exclusively reporting.
Russell committed suicide last week, after he abruptly stopped taking his anti-depression medication to control his rage issues. The Armstrong family will be having their own memorial for Russell in Texas in the next several weeks.
Russell's family was invited to attend the memorial by his estranged wife, Taylor, but the Armstrong clan decided not to go.
"Let's face it, there is no love lost between Taylor and Russell's family. Russell's family wanted no part of the memorial, they felt it was all for Taylor,” a source close to the situation tells Breaking Celebrity News. “Taylor was relieved that they didn't attend. She wanted to be surrounded by her friends and just say good-bye to Russell.”
