The Second Wife™ is allowed to go shopping, to paint her lips red, and want things that don’t necessarily benefit anybody but her.
Each passing season brings with it an opportunity for reinvention, and this year, I’m choosing to mint an entirely new persona: that of the Second Wife™. I know the name might be confusing at first, but to be clear, the Second Wife is not a back-up plan, nor is she anyone’s second choice. Instead, she’s something else altogether; something simultaneously harder and breezier and hotter.
Her vapidity and penchant for spending are played for laughs, but Shelly gets more than a few wisecracks of her own in, and she does so while being a) hot and b) dressed in designer finery that her new man bought her. Winner, winner, chicken dinner! A more recent example of the Second Wife trope is Lake Bell as the beautiful, extremely overwhelmed Agness in, Alec Baldwin’s much-younger wife with whom he dared to cheat on Meryl Streep. We’re not instructed to feel much sympathy for Agness—she’s portrayed as a needling harridan constantly forcing poor dear Baldwin to, I don’t know, parent?—but I do anyway. Imagine trying to raise a five-year-old with a man whose ex was.
