Kathy Griffin's filing this week for divorce has industry wags wondering if her 4 - year marriage to Matt Moline wasn't an unfortunate price to pay for putting her life on Front Street with her recent Bravo reality show 'My Life on the D-List.'

Griffin told this column a few months ago that her first inclination was 'to put restrictions on them (the producers). I talked to (Jessica Simpson's hubby) Nick Lachey and he said 'Well here's what we did for 'Newlyweds.' We would not let them in our bedroom or our bathroom no matter what. You've gotta have a place you can go and have some privacy.'' However, Griffin decided to opt for total disclosure of her personal life. 'About the third day I was like 'Come on in' because I'm such a giant reality fan that I just didn't want to do a show that wasn't really real.' By the end of shooting she'd wished she hadn't. 'Oh my God, everything about it is so humiliating. You really don't have a life, you walk out of the bathroom and there's a camera, you dribble your food and there's a camera, you want to pass gas and there's a camera. You say something embarrassing and it's on tape forever. I mean, I didn't just say one thing I was embarrassed about, I said 5000 things I was ashamed of...you don't know the crap that flies out of my mouth all day'

If Griffin found it humiliating, imagine what it must have been like for her husband Matt, who took care of things for Kathy like changing the music in her shows, and selling her comedy CDs at the venues she worked. Moline had to not only endure being Mr. Kathy Griffin, there were even times Griffin had to announce that the man selling her CDs in the lobby was indeed her husband -- because no one believed him. After 'My Life on the D-List' wrapped, Griffin said Moline 'was really a great sport beyond, but by the end of it he just wanted to kill everybody. It was tough for him. He fixes computers for small businesses and it hurt his business because the producers thought it would be better if Matt went with me (while the show taped).'

She adds, 'There were time Matt and I would just want to sit and hold hands or just read, but you can't relax. It's like 'Why don't you guys talk to each other.' That was the hardest part, you can't exhale.' Griffin told us she'd passed on doing a second installment of the reality show when the Bravo people asked because 'It was so tough.' But apparently the damage was already done. Whatever happens -- and we hope for the best for both of them -- it's very clear that when you're already living life in a fishbowl, turning it into one huge magnifying glass leaves little room for grace or salvation.
