The split between Tasha Smith and her husband Keith Douglas just got nastier. In previous posts, we revealed that they've EACH taken out restraining orders against one another. Now, Keith is publicly insulting Tasha's business practicies. In an open letter to Woman Veteran Interactive, Keith tells the organization that Tasha backed out of a plan appearance for "personal" reasons and never planned to return their $12K deposit! Here's his letter:
THE OPEN LETTER:
Dear Ginger,
Hope this letter finds you in good spirit and health. I would like to express these sincere words to you. I know you do not know me but character is more important than anything. I have been in the entertainment business for over 15 years. I have five grown children, three boys and two girls. I am not a Hollywood celebrity nor do I claim to be. I'm a proud and sincere father and mentor to many. In life your record speaks for you. I have never had any financial or money problems with anyone in this industry. I respect what people do especially you by dedicating your life, your time and your service towards people who are in need and we both know that although we live in one of the greatest countries in the world, there is extreme poverty out there in these streets for various reasons. I take those who serve our country in military, very seriously because they have put their lives on the line so people such as myself can enjoy the liberties and safe will because of them.
I would never take advantage of you or anyone else for personal gain and I hope that you would think so. It saddens me just to know that you got caught up in this drama between my wife and I. So, as a man I must personally apologize to you for such a great inconvenience. I just want to make a few points and my reason for making these points is because it was never about the money with my wife as well as I. When my wife reached out to you two days before your event, her reasons were because of "personal reasons" and that was exactly true. Those personal reasons were because of our domestic split and she probably wasn't in the best mood at that time which is clearly understandable. Although when you have an obligation, you must put behind personal reasons to fulfill your obligations. I have seen my wife on several occasions fulfill her movie obligations even when she was sick and tired but yet she showed character and fulfilled the role. But in this instance, I must speak the truth, she did not show character towards you and your organization. Keep in mind once again her reasons were for "personal reasons".
It was never mentioned to you that she wasnt coming "because she didn't get paid". Prior to her coming to your event, there was a domestic restraining order filed against her that was served. She was upset with me because of my actions and decided for some reason to tell your organization to come after me for repayment when she clearly knew that we had received your companies payments through paypal way before your event. She even acknowledged through text to me which was sent to Kimberly. So, although we are currently dealing with this matter in court, I will be sending you half of your repayment now and if my wife doesn't step up to the plate and send you the other half, I will be bringing this matter before the judge for full payment. Once I am reimbursed I will send you the remaining balance.
This letter that I am writing to you is an open letter because there is nothing to hide. Once again, I would hope that you would accept my sincere apologies for any hurt or inconvenience this has done to you and your organization personally.
Sincerely,
Keith Douglas
