Taylor Armstrong Is Leaving The Real Housewives of Orange County

Taylor Armstrong is saying goodbye to The Real Housewives of Orange County after just one season.

She made the announcement via her Instagram on November 29. The news comes a little over a month after the conclusion of Season 17, which featured cast members Tamra Judge, Shannon Storms Beador, Heather Dubrow, Emily Simpson, Gina Kirschenheiter, and Jennifer Pedranti.

Taylor Armstrong's Explanation for Leaving RHOC

Sharing her official cast photo, Taylor captioned the Instagram post, "Loved spending time with the ladies of RHOC and thankful I got to give the viewers an update on my life. I’ve made some real friendships that I cherish. Wishing the ladies all the best for season 18."

That's not all Taylor said, though. Giving a nod to her now infamous feud with Heather about her acting career, Taylor cheekily added, "P.S. Adding season 17 to my IMDb."
