Slade Smiley - Worst Dad Candidate
I hesitate to even use the word dad when describing Slade Smiley. For those of you who have read the site for a long time, you probably are aware the one thing I probably hate the most in this world is parents who don't see or take care of their kids. I especially think it is vile when a parent abandons their child just so they can spend time sucking face with another D list cast off in order to try and keep their fame alive.
Slade Smiley though has taken it one step beyond not just seeing his nine year old son, he also hasn't paid child support for his son and owes almost $80K. If you think this couldn't get any worse, then think again. Slade's son has an inoperable brain tumor. Yep, so let us add all of this up shall we.
You have a nine year old son dying of cancer that you have seen twice in 18 months. You didn't send him a birthday card. You haven't paid to support him and oh, get this. Oh this is the f**King topper to all of this. Slade has asked a judge to reduce his child support payments because Slade is unemployed and doesn't make any money. Uh huh.
Slade, if I had a son dying of cancer and he needed money I would work anywhere to make sure that child had money and to make his life as comfortable as possible. I don't think there is a word strong enough in the English language to describe what a horrible individual you are. I guess it figures that the one person you have found who likes you is the one who lied to and cheated on her dying boyfriend. I'm sure there is a nice room awaiting the two of you in hell someday.
Slade's an idiot, not to mention a cry baby about everything. I used to laugh and laugh watching him cry over Jo and then having temper tantrums when she didn't want to act like a 35 year old married woman. That being said, I feel really bad for his kid though. You never want to see a little egg sick like that.
ReplyDeleteI don't know who he is and I guess I don't want to know anything about him. Poor little boy.
ReplyDeleteWhat a horrible bastard Slade is. I wish all these stupid reality shows would just go away, so people like him could just disappear.
ReplyDeleteUgh, ugh, ugh!
ReplyDeleteConsidering my Bozo of an ex husband sees his son once a month, if that, I have nothing but the utmost sympathy for the mother of that child.
That poor kid
ReplyDeleteOnce a month? I'd be happy if my ex-husband would see his kids once a year but at least he pays his child support.
ReplyDeleteWho is this douchebag anyway?
Piece of crap. Here they put you in jail for not paying child support.
ReplyDeleteThat poor child!! I saw these 2 D List famewhores at my tanning salon a month or so ago. Maybe if he didn't spend his unemployed dollars on tanning and a BAD set of highlights, he wouldn't be asking the judge to reduce his child care payments. Payments that are supposed to be helping HIS DYING SON. If i were him every dime I had would be going to making my kid's life comfortable/enjoyable for whatever time I am allowed with him. GOD this guy makes me sick. I hope he never gets another TV show again.
ReplyDeleteWho is this person?
ReplyDeleteSlade is this dude whose girlfriend/fiancee was on the first couple seasons of the Real Housewives of O.C. He's also a gigantic cry baby and delusional.
ReplyDeleteAnd apparently, he's a souless sh*tbag. What a vile being.
ReplyDeleteOh, and when they finally broke up and she left the show, they did a show together wherein he lives in a house with potential suitors and helps her decide who she should pick. He's quite creepy.
ReplyDeleteSometimes out of boredom I'll watch Real Housewives episodes online. I'll never, never watch an RHOC episode again - what an asshole!
ReplyDeleteThere is nothing he can say to defend himself. Enty is right, go work at f-ing McDonald's, landscaping, whatever...get that child the care he needs and be a father to him.
*&^$#@
Sarah:
ReplyDeleteWhere online do you watch them? I keep trying to find RHONJ, but can't find it anywhere.
I was a single mom. My ex, the alien, never sent a dime and never saw my son until he was grown. It was hard, but at least my son wasn't sick. This mother and child has all my sympathy.
ReplyDeleteI have no idea who this schmuck is, but looks like he shaves his body hair so right there he's toast in my book.
ReplyDeleteAnd he WILL rot in Hell, you just watch.
how could he have no money?? he has to have been paid something for these POS shows he's done.
ReplyDeleteWhat a f*cking tool.
ReplyDeleteDeplorable.
ReplyDeleteI had a family member die of brain cancer. It slowly and painfully eats away at you. My heart breaks for this little boy and his mother. I just can't imagine knowing my child is dying while being concerned for financial support. All the while his father is running around with a mediawh*$e. Just sad.
ReplyDeleteDisgusting. He will burn in hell.
ReplyDeleteMy husband has been paying child support faithfully for the last eight years, despite his ex refusing to let him see his son. We haven't seen the boy in almost six years. This morning the judge ordered yet again that the ex stop being a roadblock and allow father and son to meet. Nearly six years of brainwashing and you can imagine what that relationship is going to be like.
Grrr, some people should just have their parental rights ripped away.
what a jerk!!! i hope he gets what he deserves!
ReplyDeletemy own father is in a similar category. made millions, owned 7 cars (one of them a rare vintage BMW that was one of only 3 in the world), owned a collection of expensive watches, dined and golfed with sheiks in Brunei, owned a penthouse, a townhouse, a ski chalet and an island apartment, i could go on... he paid $100/month to my mom in child support for a while and then decided not to anymore, because i didn't write or call enough (sometimes i didn't call for 10 days or so...but i was a teenager and scared of his temper tantrums and angry outbursts), so he stopped paying....after trying nicely for many months to get him to pay again, because she depended on it, my mom was forced to take him to family court. since the case was still not resolved by the time i was 18 and i needed the support to be able to go to college (can't get financial aid if dad is that rich), i had to continue the lawsuit as an "adult" and my mom wasn't allowed to anymore (it was the law in my country). the whole thing went on and on for 10 years, during which he berated me as a many many things in open court and many letters ("fat pig" was one of the milder expressions) - without any reprimand by the court - he also listed every single birthday and christmas gift he ever gave me, calculated the financial value and presented it as financial support rendered.....it was crazy.
.....that's NOT even touching on any of the other abuse....you get the picture.
....not that he wanted to see me much growing up either.....he'd show up once or twice a year, with gifts or picked me up, took me shopping then dropped me off at grandma's and disappeared completely until it was time to take me back to mom's...that was my "time with daddy".
ReplyDeleteWhat Judi said. Souless sh*tbag.
ReplyDeleteFurther on JJ's comment:
ReplyDeleteMy brother's ex has refused to let him see the kids, she has no legal right not to let him see them, but the courts in Australia do nothing to enforce laws and unless you have the money it is very expensive to fight, and you can't get legal aid unless you earn absolutely no money. My brother went to his children's school and spoke to the principal and asked for copies of his kids reports, and the principal is going to send him copies from now on. I have offered to help pay for solicitors for him to fight for access, but he wants to get a good job and do it himself. It is heartbreaking because the children suffer, and here is this dirtbag that had no right being a parent leaving his child in the lurch. WTF!
he should be ashamed of himself. seriously. that, of course, would presume he has a conscious.
ReplyDeleteit's one thing not to want children. that changes when you actually decide to have unprotected sex and have one and DO THE RIGHT THING. whether or not you wanted him, he's here. act like a grown-up.
irresponsible f@ck.
Narcissists have no empathy, no compassion, no sense that the other person even has feelings - I'm sure that Slade thinks his son thinks he's the best daddy in the whole wide world. The good news is that these two toxic mental cases aren't destroying other partners lives while they are together. Slade & Gretchen bask in each other's light feeding on each other's illness. While most people see this as his son's loss, just ask anyone who has done time with a narcissist if they look back on that experience with joy or happiness - the answer will be no. His son no matter what is better off he's not seeing his dad because it will always be about Slade, 24/7/365.
ReplyDeleteHe's a real C U Next Tuesday.
ReplyDeletesvd - I hope you had a chance to air the abuse done to you in court. He shouldn't be allowed to get away with it.
feraltart and JJ - I hope they get to see their kids soon. JJ, you're right about the brainwash. My mother did that to me for years. It didn't help our relationship. She'll pay.
I think I'm going to call my dad and tell him I love him (which I do everyday).
ReplyDeleteWhat an assclown Slade is.
svd, can't believe being that your father is loaded and he was only paying 100.00 for child support.
ReplyDeleteTheir are no words to express on parents that are not there for there own flesh and blood.
@sylvia
ReplyDeleteyup. the amount was set when my parents divorced and he was on a far lower income and i guess the amount was never adjusted.
the shocking thing is, that he never offered to raise it. he just spent all of his money on himself....unless he was in the right kind of mood and i happened to be around, then he'd take me to a store and buy me a couple of new clothes so i wouldn't "walk around like a slob" anymore.
@shakey
i WISH i'd had the opportunity. as it was, i was too terrified to say much at all. i was having serious panic attacks and it took me everything i had to show up and face him in the same room at all. that was a victory in itself for me. (i always had to go alone, because my mom said: you're an adult now, it's YOUR case....even though SHE wanted the money. it's really pretty unbelievable, but totally true).
I like Slade's brother, Guy, much better...gameshow host, newscaster, muppet....
ReplyDelete@ Majik I was just thinking how dare this douche ruin the name of Smiley. Poor Guy would be ashamed.
ReplyDeletesvd, you should write a journal of what you went thru and your thoughts. That might help you some and get over your panic attacks.
ReplyDeleteI don't have kids but when I see parents letting their kids running around and not paying attention that they might get into an accident it pisses me off.
What a piece of shit. That is all.
ReplyDeleteslade is asshat
ReplyDelete@svd as someone told me a while back 'we are all family here' so here is a {big hug}from this Mom!
I hated this story...but nobody could really express what needs to be said better than Enty just did.
ReplyDeleteWow!
ReplyDeleteMy kids and I are in the same boat, my ex moved to another state, sees the kids maybe twice a year when he comes to visit. (Phones once a week and my daughter complains that he doesn't let her talk about herself) Now he has a new girlfriend, says I will have to put my tiny children on a plane unaccompanied to visit him because his new girl friend feels uncomfortable about him visiting us in my home???
Oh and he cheats on his tax returns and so only pays $100 a MONTH child support. What did I ever see in a man who would behave like this?
