“There’s no such thing as a private life anymore.”
In an angry and tearful YouTube video with over 200,000 views, former actress and playwright Tricia Walsh-Smith lashes out against her husband, Philip Smith, president of the Shubert Organization, the largest theater owner on Broadway.
Walsh-Smith pages through their wedding album on camera, labeling Smith’s family members as “bad,” “evil” or “nasty,” and talks about how her husband is allegedly trying to evict her from their luxury apartment. She claims Smith hasn’t had sex with her for two years due to high blood pressure, then calls his secretary to ask Smith why he has condoms, porn and Viagra if he can’t have sex.
This appears to be the first case where a spouse has used YouTube to spill embarrassing secrets of a marriage in an apparent effort to gain leverage and humiliate the other side. But strip away the technology and hype of such an event, and you’ll find a sad and heartbroken woman.
