Armstrong’s time with the series gave birth to a very popular meme known as Woman Yelling at Cat. In this meme, a very upset Armstrong can be seen pointing at someone while another woman is trying to console her. The image is juxtaposed with the photo of a white cat with a smug appearance. While the context of the photo of Armstrong is upsetting, as it involved her discussing her husband’s alleged abuse of her, she has taken the meme in stride, and the meme itself has remained popular online.

During her time on The Real Housewives, Armstrong faced rumors of domestic violence that received support later on. She would divorce her then-husband after he apparently gave her a fracture that required surgery. She would get divorced off-screen around the time of the filming of season 2.

In 2014, Armstrong appeared in Couples Therapy alongside her husband, Bluher.

In 2022, Armstrong appeared in The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip in season 2.

Due to her experiences, Armstrong is a speaker and advocate against domestic violence. In addition, she appears in events and does fundraising for this cause. She also wrote a book titled Hiding from Reality, which detailed her experience on The Real Housewives juxtaposed with the reality of the violence she experienced.

Trivia

The woman yelling at cat meme is usually used without context, as few people know who is in the picture or what the circumstances are.

The image also featured a picture of Smudge, a white cat with a particular facial expression. Smudge has a popular Instagram account and is also quite famous online.
