Actress/Playwright Tricia Walsh Smith is not happy about being evicted from her Park Avenue apartment during her bitter divorce so she filmed a youtube rant against her ex-husband. The homegrown reality tv hit has gone viral with more than 500,000 youtube views. After viewing the soap opera one must ask the question if their relationship can be called a marriage if Tricia admits she never had sex with her husband? A marriage annulment is a legal procedure that dissolves a couple's marital status by establishing that a valid marriage never existed. In effect, it nullifies the marriage, returning the parties to their prior single status. It's a common misconception that short marriages can be annulled, but the length of the marriage is not a qualifying factor. Generally, for a marriage to be declared invalid, one of the following grounds for annulment must be met: One party was impotent and unable to consummate the marriage. The marriage was entered into fraudulently. This may be due to the concealment of impotence, criminal history, sexually transmitted diseases, etc. source
Many people may wonder if this couple should be getting an annulment instead of a divorce. Tricia includes the information in her youtube clip where she admits to never consummating her
relationship with her husband even after she found his stash of Viagra
and condoms. Check out one youtube answer to this plot twist. Here is one youtube viewer who refers to Tricia as a gold digger. It may take several video viewings and more plot line information for millions of viewers to determine if this actress is either a victim or a gold digger. Stay Tuned. Cue the violins and canned soap opera music. UPDATE: CLICK HERE TO SEE A PHOTO OF TRICIA AND HER HUSBAND PHILIP SMITH IN HAPPIER TIMES.

In her six-minute video (which as of Wednesday morning had received more than 287,000 hits), British actress and playwright Tricia Walsh-Smith lashes out at husband Phil Smith, president of the Shubert Organization, the largest theater owner on Broadway – and the man who now wants her out of his life.
On camera in the Park Avenue apartment from which she says she is being forcibly evicted by him, Walsh-Smith (who is 25 years her spouse's junior) reveals candid facts about the marriage and at one point gets on speaker phone and calls Smith's assistant to ask what she should do with her estranged husband's Viagra and porn collection.
"This is absolutely a new step, and I think it's scary," Bonnie Rabin, a divorce lawyer who has handled high-profile cases, tells the Associated Press. "It brings the concept of humiliation to a whole new level." Famed divorce lawyer Raoul Felder, who is now representing Walsh-Smith, considers the video (which was filmed before he took her on as a client) "funny, but there's also sadness. This is a victim who is holding her head up. I think she comes off well."
Not everyone is laughing. Smith's office said he had no comment. His lawyers said the same, "other than that we're kind of appalled." source
