The fur flew on Monday night’s second part of The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills reunion, as elegant enemies Taylor Armstrong and Brandi Glanville fought tooth and nail over their differences, each bringing up sore subjects in the melee. The tension mounted during a segment in which host Andy Cohen asked the ladies questions from viewers. When one wanted to know what Brandi's issue has been with Taylor this season, things got tense in a hurry: Brandi told Taylor she'd run into Russell, who told her it was actually Taylor who made him send an email threatening Camille Grammer with legal action against for discussing their marital issues. PHOTOS: Reality TV's Hottest Stars Taylor shot back at Brandi, questioning her credibility by pointing out she slit ex-husband Eddie Cibrian’s tires. "I own them too!" Brandi said. "I just took the tires and I put the knife into his motorcycles, and then I told him, 'Don't ride them, you're probably going to get hurt.'" Brandi then threw a stiff jab, insinuating Taylor's been trying to capitalize off Russell's death. PHOTOS: Bikini Wars: Reality Stars Compete! "When does the book come out anyway? How long has it been?" Brandi said in a snarky tone, before noting it took a "hot minute" for Taylor to begin marketing her memoir. Kyle Richards repeatedly jumped to Taylor’s defense throughout the exchange, reminding Brandi, "Somebody died here!" Brandi replied, "Yeah, exactly: then let him rest in peace!"

"She's been through enough this year -- be a little sympathetic," Kyle said. Elsewhere in the episode, Taylor said she found a briefcase found next to Russell’s body that contained data on about 10 different bank accounts, a Rio de Janeiro office and flash drives she’s reticent to open based on legal worries. PHOTOS: Reality TV's Top Tragedies “Um, he had a lot of things going on that I didn't know about," Taylor said. When Cohen brought up that Russell's business partner killed himself shortly after Russell did, Taylor said she’d have felt better knowing Russell was killed by someone else than so distraught as to take his own life -- implying she felt that scenario was feasible. Watch the video on RadarOnline.com As we previously reported, this season of the show documented Taylor's shaky relationship with her late husband Russell, who she claims abused her throughout their marriage. The 47-year-old businessman was found hanged at a Los Angeles home August 15, after it was taped. He is survived by Taylor and three kids: son Aiden (with ex-wife Barbara Fredrickson); son Griffin (with former fiancée Milette Fields); and daughter Kennedy (with Taylor). Taylor’s memoir Hiding from Reality: My Story of Love, Loss, and Finding the Courage Within is in stores now. Part three of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills reunion airs on Bravo Monday at 9/8c.

By Neil Woulfe - Radar Senior News Director Josh Powell left behind a haunting voicemail for his family just 20 minutes before attacking his two young sons with a hatchet and torching his home in Graham, Washington on Sunday afternoon. In the short voicemail -- exclusively obtained overnight by ABC News -- Powell pointed to his boys, Braden 5, and Charles,7, for the reason behind his heartbreaking act that left all three dead. "Hello this is Josh. I’m calling to say goodbye. I am not able to live without my sons, and I'm not able to go on anymore. I'm sorry to everyone I've hurt. Goodbye," Powell said in the voicemail. PHOTOS: Josh Powell Kills Himself And His Two Sons In House Explosion As RadarOnline.com has previously reported, Powell had long been considered a “person of interest” in the disappearance of his wife Susan, who vanished in December, 2009 while Powell claimed he was away on a spur-of-the-moment overnight camping trip with his sons. As a caseworker pounded on Powell’s front door Sunday, authorities say he rounded up the boys in a room behind the family’s garage, where he ignited two 5-lb cans of gasoline and then attacked the boys with a hatchet in an apparent attempt to kill them. In the end, Powell and both boys died of smoke inhalation, Pierce County Medical Examiner's Office investigator Melissa Baker said Monday night. However, Baker added that the boys suffered "chop injuries" that contributed to their deaths -- Charles was struck on his neck and Braden had injuries to both his head and neck. PHOTOS: Celebs Involved In Murder Authorities say they believe Powell felt threatened by the boys starting to remember details of their mother’s disappearance, including a drawing made by one of the boys showing his mother in the trunk of the family’s car. On Good Morning America Tuesday, Susan Powell’s parents remembered their two young grandsons, who stayed with them. “They were very happy…kept safe.,,and they were enjoying their time with us and were becoming more and more loving,” Chuck Cox said. PHOTOS: Celebrities We Lost In 2011 Susan’s parents also said the boys once told them that the last time they saw Susan “mommy was on a camping trip.” Susan’s parents said when they would question the boys about it, they would go into a “rehearsed” response that they didn’t remember. Detectives have said the tragedy was a planned attack and that in the days before the tragedy, Powell donated his son’s books and clothes to charity. He also transferred the money from his bank account to someone else’s account, according to ABC News.
