Taylor Armstrong has been hitting the bottle because her husband offed himself and she’s drowning in debt. In Touch Weekly says that Taylor is also drinking because she’s dating Most Eligible Dallas star Matt Nordegren. He’s 28 years old!

Taylor is reportedly drinking up to 20 drinks a day and she begins indulging “early in the morning.”

“She’s gone from wine to hard liquor. She’ll pretty much drink anything. She’s drinking away her pain and her grief, but she has a major problem and needs to come to terms with it,” a friend says.

Taylor’s “friend” adds that Matt is a partier and “Taylor’s acting like she’s in her twenties again.”

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star also drinks in front of her 5 year-old daughter, Kennedy.
