In 2016, Christie Smythe seemed to have it all — a husband who worked in finance, a dog, a career in journalism at Bloomberg, and a perfect little life in Brooklyn. But years later, after covering “Pharma Bro” Martin Shkreli and his crimes, Smythe divorced her husband, quit her jobs, and now lives in a basement apartment hoping Shkreli will answer her emails.
In between, an article in Elle explains, Smythe fell in love with Shkreli and became his “life partner,” though the status of that arrangement seems shaky now.
