Wife of Shubert President Does Divorce YouTube Style

041608smiths.jpgActress/playwright/trophy wife Tricia Walsh-Smith is in the midst of a nasty divorce from Philip Smith, her husband of ten years and president of the Shubert Organization, the largest theater owner on Broadway.

And in what will hopefully be a new trend in marital strife, she’s documenting the emotional turbulence with a simultaneously funny and cringe-inducing YouTube masterpiece entitled One More Crazy Day in the Life of a Phoenix Rising from the Ashes. SPOILER:

“Oh, another thing: We never had sex. He said it was because he said he had high blood pressure and was old and I accepted that. Then last year when we went through this I found Viagra, porn movies, and condoms.” Walsh-Smith then calls Smith’s office and tells his shocked assistant, on the speaker phone: “I’m filming at the moment for YouTube. I don’t know if you know but Philip and I never had sex. But he’s got Viagra, condoms and porn movies. Just ask him what he wants me to do with them.” The train wreck continues with a tour of the apartment and an evisceration of her husband’s “evil” older daughter.

According to attorneys interviewed by 1010 WINS, Walsh-Smith’s YouTube divorce flick may be a first. High-profile divorce lawyer Bonnie Rabin says “This is absolutely a new step, and I think it's scary. People used to worry about getting on Page Six. But this? It brings the concept of humiliation to a whole new level.” And Walsh-Smith’s lawyer thinks that “this is a victim who is holding her head up. I think she comes off well.” If that doesn’t make you laugh, you haven’t watched yet watched One More Crazy Day in the Life of a Phoenix Rising from the Ashes.

she sounds like she just married him for the money anyway

Trophy wife? What friggin trophy would that be? "Best Meth User/Tarsier Impersonator" Yikes!

A blonde dye job does not a trophy wife make.

Are you telling me old, rich showbiz guys marry terrible moronic women?

Wow. This is sad and fucked up and sad and fucked up.

Let's give him the benefit of the doubt. The Viagara, pornos, and condoms could have been for a gay lover.

Are those Taro cards?!? And this is supposed to help her cause?

Who wants to bet that the cabana boy operated the camera on this one.

that woman has serious problems, and her lawyer must be a complete idiot. “this is a victim who is holding her head up. I think she comes off well.” lol.

I'm sure Paul McCartney is wishing Heather Mills had done this, he could have saved a bunch of money.

Obviously this woman was seriously abused--by eyeliner!

Step back from this situation a minute. Did she marry this guy for his stud ability, or was it his humor and sarcastic wit?

Actually he is the president, not the owner, of the Shubert organization.

Why might I ask that in the photo above she looks like she was tasered in her butt?

She's a shop worn, typical, very late middle aged, money grubbing, bottle blonde cunt.

Call me foolish, but something tells me that this divorce won't be amicable.

You gotta wonder what's his side of this story. No sex with wifey, but stashes of viagra, condoms & porn? Something kinky here.

No worse than any of the yentas on "The Real Housewives of NYC"

bitch must have gone crazy trying to build that god awful website. Her father is lucky the Germans got to him before the british tabloids did...

how long have they been married?

"...he wants to throw me out, and I don't know why"


here's a hint: watch the video on this page for starters

Sticks and stones might break her bones, and obviously some used an ugly stick.

With all that money shouldn't she go to Duane Reade and buy some foundation makeup so she doesn't glisten like a bowling ball? Also blondes look stupid wearing yellow.

She looks more like the Joker with that crazy wide-eyed grin. Something tells me this video will not help her in the divorce case. I suspect most judges don't look favorably on people airing their dirty laundry in public.

Man that bitch has crazy-ass eyes. Don't men know enough to stay away from women with crazy-ass eyes? And why does she call them con-domes and not call London Lon-done? Just wondering.

Is she grabbing the poor guy by the balls, therefore having that wild eyed shit eating grin on her face?

Playwright, eh?

Anyone familiar with anything she's written?

Did he win a trailer park poker tourney? Because she looks like the trophy.

Zing!

Unfortunately he had two pair and the winner had a straight so at the end of the night he ended up with the blonde.

...but WHO is operating the camera?

Hmm, gee, I can't imagine why any man could have a problem getting it up for such a warm and beautiful human being... she is human, isn't she?

After looking at the photos on the woman's website-

It seems to me that she's lived the perfect shallow and wasted life of a New York 'wannabe celeb' circa the 70's!!

However, she is correct in her self-assessment:
She is indeed a 'Schmuck'-

Jesse Califano

I've said it once and I'll say it again: 99.9% of British woman have trailer park-face.

Anyone who watched that video is a jerkoff.
