"I was actually friends with Taylor's husband. May he rest in peace," Joyce revealed. "I remember we were at a mutual friend's dinner party at their home in Beverly Hills and he was there and he was asking my husband for some advice. He was like, what do you think about [reality television]?"

After appearing on the show years ago, Russell tragically committed suicide as he and Taylor, who he was accused of assaulting, put an end to their marriage.
