This clip did the impossible: it actually made me feel sorry for Alec Baldwin.
What a beaten-down defeated man he is, married to that shrew.

I’ve done lots of people with spouses like that, but most of them were
significantly younger than these two.

Did any of their marriages survive?

 I don’t know, they pretty much all disappeared, shrew wives like that don’t
let their husbands keep their old friends.
 True story about a guy we’ll call Scott to protect the innocent. A typical
interaction with his wife would be. I pulled up for their Halloween party
and you can hear her screaming SCOTT! SCOTT!  FRED’S HERE AND HE’S NOT
WEARING A COSTUME! MAKE HIM GO HOME AND PUT ON A COSTUME!!
Of course I had on a lovely costume. I just didn’t have on the mask because
I was, you know, freaking driving. You could always hear her shrilly in the
background.
 At their wedding, all her bridesmaids were our girlfriends because she
didn’t have any friends of her own.  She made them wear these hideous lime
green dresses that look like they were burlap. And the groomsmen had to
wear matching cumber buns. And she had the waiters at the reception dress
just like the groomsmen so we all spent the evening with people trying to
get us to bring them drinks
 Shortly after, a few of the guys were at their house having brewskis while
she was in the other room opening the wedding presents all by herself (who
does that?). She had insisted that all wedding presents had to be blue
and/or have ducks on them.
 Suddenly, we hear from the other room SCOTT SCOTT THIS ISN’T BLUE AND IT
DOESN’T HAVE DUCKS ON IT IT HAS TO GO BACK!!
 Scott:  that from you?
Me: probably.
Scott: what is it?
Me: it’s a set of those drinking glasses I have that you like.
 He just reached over and shook my hand because he knew he got at least one
wedding present he liked.
 I tried to hire him from some jobs, but she would insist on coming along
and standing there haranguing him just like the yoga woman is doing to the
killer in the video and he’d just have to give up and go home with the work
unfinished.
 Once she got pregnant (which was really soon), none of us ever saw them
anymore.
 I still miss him.
 

What a horrible woman! I hope he wised up, got a divorce and sole custody of the kid(s), and then found someone a lot less toxic.
But I suppose if he had, he'd have reconnected with you....
That marriage sounds like yet another "marry in haste, repent in leisure" deals....
