Kristen Taekman is trying to keep busy as shocking details of her husband Josh’s Ashley Madison account continue to emerge.

On Monday, the 38-year-old sought solace in friend Brandi Glanville, as the pair enjoyed a boozy lunch in Los Angeles.

After tucking into a couple of large glasses of white wine over their meal, the Real Housewives Of New York City star and former Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills star shared a hug goodbye.

Kristen understandably looked a little downcast, but was clearly pleased to be spending time with her friend.

The former model kept her wardrobe cheerful at least, in a bright yellow jumper with white skinny jeans and brown mesh peep-toe heels.

Kristen finished off her look with large gold hoop earrings, smoky eye make-up and some nude lipstick.

Meanwhile Brandi picked a skimpy white summer dress and taupe heels.

The day after their meal, the 42-year-old tweeted Kristen to say: ‘I LOVE YOU.’ Kristen replied: ‘LOVE you B!!!’

Perhaps Brandi was passing on some words of advice to her pal. The star found out her husband Eddie Cibrian was cheating on her with LeAnn Rimes, and left him in 2009.

After initially saying he was the victim of fraud, Kristen’s husband Josh confessed to being a member of Ashley Madison, but didn’t admit to the full extent of his use of the affairs site.

He stated: 'I did sign up for the site foolishly and ignorantly with a group of friends and I deeply apologize for any embarrassment or pain I have brought to my wife and family. We both look forward to moving past this and getting on with our lives.'

In fact he had not just signed up – he paid to access the site 62 separate times, spending a total of more than $1500 in a membership that spanned three years.

DailyMail.com revealed last week that on his profile – under the tagline ‘Let’s have fun’ – the energy supplement mogul referred to himself as ‘Mr Big NYC’. He wrote that he was ‘looking to enjoy the finer things life has to offer.'

He went on: ‘Total respect for my situation and yours but looking for a beautiful sexy woman, who wants to be treated like a woman, engaged socially and intellectually and see where it goes from there.

‘But no stress and no pressure... Looking for opportunity to wine and dine and have discreet experiences.’

Kristen has been married to the 46-year-old businessman for more than 10 years. He first logged onto the cheaters' website on June 29 2011 - when she was newly pregnant with their second child.

There is then a gap in his activity until May 2012, when their second child, daughter Kingsley, now three, was around five months old. The couple also have a six-year-old son, Cassius, known as Cash.

Josh then used the site on multiple occasions every single month between May 2012 and June 2014. He even logged on twice the day after Christmas in 2013.

Each transaction represents a payment made, ranging from $19.99 to $79, allowing Taekman to send emails to other Ashley Madison members.

Ashley Madison which operates under the tagline 'Life is short. Have an affair,' is accessible for free but users must buy credits to send messaged: $49 gets 100 credits while $250 earns 1000 credits and a money-back guarantee if you don't have an affair within three months.
