It’s been very difficult for us,” Tomlinson said. “You really think you’re in control of your life and then something comes along and slaps you in the face. It makes you realize you’re not in control.”

Patricia Southall is Emmitt Smith’s wife. Patricia married Emmitt on April 22, 2000, six years before Smith made dancing seem cool (for about 6 seconds) by winning Dancing with the Stars. Patricia earned a degree in journalism from James Madison University, and won the Miss Virginia USA pageant in 1993. She represented Virginia in the 1994 Miss USA pageant, where she placed first runner-up. She married Martin Lawrence in January of 1995, but seeing as Martin was pretty much out of his mind at this time (he was arrested three times in a two year span and suffered a drug addiction) it was no surprise that they divorced in September 1997.
