married to a trophy wife

The term "trophy wife" isn't a compliment. It means a very beautiful second (or third) wife that an upwardly mobile man marries after dumping the woman who helped him start up the ladder.

A trophy wife is a status symbol, like a fancy car or a very expensive wristwatch.

You might get away with calling Rudy Giuliani's second and third wives "trophy wives" (not that I agree with that) but Elizabeth Edwards you should just call his wife.

They've been together since the beginning.
