Trophy Wife & Boy Toy

Trophy Wife



A trophy wife doesn’t have to cook and clean and get her manicured nails all dirty. A trophy wife refers to a marriage pattern in which men marry attractive young women as a form of display intended to exhibit their wealth and success to others.

Often rich and successful men who follow this pattern divorce their first wives, often with a generous divorce settlement, and then marry a second much younger woman.

And what happens when the trophy wife gets older, like Bianca Jagger and Ivana Trump? Why, the men dump them, usually with a fair settlement, and take another one! It’s like swapping your Jimmy Choos for a newer, better-looking model.

This is what Sharon Stone had to say:

"They should watch out because if they're not careful, their wives will now be the ones leaving them for younger men."

"Only a few days ago I was chatted up in a bar by a 25 year old. I said, 'I could be your mother."

"A 25-year-old would be happy to spend the whole afternoon washing your hair for you. But a 40-year-old man who works too hard will get his secretary to send you flowers."
