While performing at Gigi's, a Houston strip club, in October 1991, Smith met elderly oil billionaire J. Howard Marshall and they began a relationship. During their two-year relationship, he reportedly lavished gifts on her and asked her to marry him several times.[17] She divorced her husband Billy on February 3, 1993, in Houston.[18] On June 27, 1994, Smith, 26, and Marshall, 89, married in Houston.[19] This resulted in a great deal of gossip about her marrying him for his money.[20] Though she reportedly never lived with him,[21] Smith maintained that she loved her husband, and age did not matter to her. Thirteen months after his marriage to Smith, Marshall died on August 4, 1995, in Houston.

Smith was known as much for her sometimes-turbulent life off-camera as she was for her tabloid celebrity. The former topless dancer in Houston made her first appearance in Playboy in 1992, was named Playmate of the Year in 1993, and appeared in Guess jeans ads and movies.
