Weeks after it was reported that Taylor Armstrong had taken photos of the physical abuse she allegedly suffered at the hands of her estranged husband Russell Armstrong, photos of the battered reality star have now been released.

Entertainment Tonight released the first abuse photos of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star just moments ago which show her with a black eye.

According to ET, the photos of Taylor, 40, were taken as she lay in a hospital bed, getting surgery. ET states the “exclusive photos” were taken by a friend.

An expert reveals the injuries were likely caused by a “fist to the eye or somebody taking her head from the back and forcing her into something.” ET promises to air its special investigation on Tuesday.

Taylor first went public with her domestic abuse claims back in July two weeks after filing for divorce. Russell admitted back then to pushing his wife but claimed it “happened in the heat of the moment.” Since then, court records have revealed two of Russell’s exes (an ex-wife and an ex-girlfriend) also accused him of physical abuse years ago.

Damn... I don't know who to believe or feel bad for anymore... Her, or her husband...

Oh my god. That's beyond ****ed up. I feel so sorry for her. Although I dislike her as person, this is still disgusting.

Her husband was such a ***** for doing this.

Ok, i do not watch any of these housewives shows, but i watched some vids of this woman after i found out her husband suicided; and she sounds capable of doing anything for attention.

So i don't know if I should feel bad for this, or not.

...or hers. She tries so hard to live the Beverly Hills lifestyle. I don't think Russell likes that, and you can see that in season one. He's so awkward and uncomfortable around the cameras, and I don't blame him. I think he felt pressured to earn millions of bucks and drench his wife with lavish gifts, but he just couldn't do it and he felt disappointing that he could not do that to his wife, while the other cast mate's husbands can.

Her Ex-Husband Who Committed Suicide! I Feel So Bad For Her!!

This sounds awful, but I doubt anyone this conniving bitch says or does.

She already made plans to write a tell-all book a week after his suicide.

Did she really? Talk about a ****ing mess.

No, I am saying that she probably leaked the pics or even the remote possibility that she could have done that to herself.

She's shopping it around as we speak and the husband's sister is threatening a lawsuit.

Rihanna did a first exclusive interview about her abuse too.. prior to the release of Rated R

She also never reported her abuse in a multi-page, tell-all magazine spread. The media reported it against her will.

She also never released photographs of her bruises, the police did.

There were also actual police and hospital records in her case, whereas in Taylor's, any have yet to surface.

Chris Brown never committed suicide, they never had a child together, and Rihanna never tried shopping around a tell-all abuse book. Rihanna was also 21, not pushing 40.

Dont' try me.

omg poor gurl

Who is taylor armstrong?

But she still did the first tell all interview weeks only before rated R like the incident happened last February

November 9, 2009... Rated R release November 20, 2011
I'm just sayin' she did it also with an interview...
