“Basically throwing me out on the street.” Yup. Getting $750,000, as agreed in their prenup, is being “thrown out into the street.”

“On the video, Walsh-Smith also goes through their wedding album, describing family members as ‘bad,’ ‘evil’ or ‘nasty,’ and expresses concern about eviction from the couple’s luxury apartment.”

Her routine was so over-the-top that the judge actually sided with the husband, criticizing Walsh-Smith for “a calculated and callous campaign to embarrass and humiliate her husband” in order to extort more money out of him than was in the prenup.

They were married in 1999 and, luckily for Smith, they had no children. If they had, I’m sure by now Smith would be a “child molester,” a “wife-beater,” and a bunch of other things.
