Steve Smith's New Heartache
Woman's Day Australia|9 July 2018

He’s drinking alone in New York while his fiancee is on the other side of the world – without her engagement ring!

Steve Smith's New Heartache

 

While all around him people laughed and drank pints of beer in New York’s well known raucous Irish dive bar Nancy Whiskey Pub, disgraced cricket captain Steve Smith looked like he had the weight of the world on his shoulders as he sat texting alone at the bar.

Now, insiders are telling Woman’s Day the reason for the 29-year-old’s sad demeanour might not be solely his flagging career, which hit rock bottom when he was unceremoniously sacked from the Australian cricket team following the ball-tampering scandal in March.

ABSENT WAG

In fact, the source of Steve’s heartache is much closer to home. His fiancee Dani Willis is no longer wearing her engagement ring! She has upped sticks and flown to the other side of the world, leaving her partner alone in New York last week before he flew to Toronto to appear in the Global T20 in Canada.
