A tophy wife is a woman in a May to December marriage that sees Christmas presents in December. A trophy wife believes that when she gets a swatch of mink and a plane ticket to New York City to get the matching coat, that he is really that romantic, and his secretary doens't know him better than she does. A trophy wife needs a nanny and she still can't cook, and a nanny means the sex isn't as good anymore, so if she's really smart, she'll adopt. A trophy wife is dependent and so is he; he has lost his fire and life has become too routine. A trophy wife means his ex is dating younger men.
Nancy who very publically married celebrity TV veteran Greg Meidel is a tropy wife. Like this trophy wife, we all know it will last because he took an oath!
