Earlier this year Smith’s ex-husband, Keith Douglas accused her of sleeping with other women and he filed a restraining order against her which required Smith to stay at least two yards away from him despite the two living under the same roof at the time. Just one week later Smith filed a similar restraining order against Douglas, accusing him of having extra marital affairs.
