These husbands and wives have nominated their partners as the worst! Are they really all that bad? Or are there unrealistic expectancies in these marriages?


Worst Spouse in the Americas?
Julia divorced Luis in 1993 and says she remarried him because he promised things would get better. Instead, they got so much worse that she is nominating him "The Worst Spouse in the Americas." She says he spends their money on drinking, calls her names, doesn't spend time with the family, and often doesn't come home at night. He says she is a nag and that he only came on the show to prove she is "crazy and ridiculous."

Dr. Phil tells Julia and Luis that they "have no right" to fight in front of their children.

Update

Find out if Julia and Luis are still fighting.

 
Worst Slob in America
Dave has nominated his wife, Julie, the "Worst Slob in America" because their house has been "an absolute mess" for nine years. Julie admits that even when guests come over, she doesn't clean. She just "shoves the mess into the bedroom." Sincerely wanting to change, Julie asks Dr. Phil for help. To Julie's delight, Dr. Phil contacts Barb Friedman of the National Association of Professional Organizers, who promises to get Julie and her house organized, no matter how long it takes!

Worst Decorator in America
Married for less than two years, Monica has nominated her husband, Jeff, the "Worst Decorator in America" because he wants to keep their family room just the way it is — his vinyl recliner included. "I am emotionally attached to the chair," protests Jeff. "If something happens to it, you can just start me on anti-depressants right away." Determined to get rid of the "bachelor chair," Monica asks, "Dr. Phil, can you help me?"

Dr. Phil enlists the help of his wife Robin and Elizabeth Mayhew, Style Director of Real Simple Magazine to come up with a design that will please both Julia and Jeff.
