Sport Minister Darryl Smith yesterday accused a relative of “leaking on social media” a video showing an intimate moment between himself and a woman in the privacy of his home.
The video, Smith said, was recorded on the same day that the “financial aspect of my divorce was finalised.”
In a Facebook post, Smith claimed it was not the first time the relative had “revealed personal information to try to destabilise the family unit in this matter.”
Smith broke his silence on the issue a day after the video began circulating on social media.
The 42-second video, which was posted on Expose TT’s Facebook page on Wednesday, showed Smith lying on a recliner while being caressed, hugged and kissed by a woman.
Smith said the video was recorded on December 22, from his home security system and leaked via social media. The minister said his marriage was dissolved by order of the Family Court more than seven months ago.
Smith’s ex-wife Danielle Campbell in a telephone interview with CNC3 yesterday said, “I have absolutely no comment to make on Mr Smith’s statement. He is free to say what he wants to say.”
