NEW YORK (CNN) — A New York judge granted a divorce Monday to the husband of a woman who posted angry, intimate and embarrassing details of their marriage on YouTube, generating more than 3 million hits on the video-sharing Web site. The judge cited cruel and inhuman treatment of Philip Smith, a Broadway mogul who was the subject of Tricia Walsh-Smith’s Internet rants, in granting the divorce and ordered Smith to pay his ex-wife $750,000 under the terms of prenuptual agreement. Walsh-Smith also has 30 days to vacate the couple’s Park Avenue apartment. Walsh-Smith’s attorney, Joseph McCafferty, said his client would appeal the judge’s ruling. |
