Famous pitchman Vince Shlomi is usually the one making the offers, but now he's on the receiving end after his wife filed for divorce.
According to court records, Melody Barney filed documents in Los Angeles Superior Court to end her marriage with Offer Vince Shlomi.
Melody listed that she and Vince just split up Wednesday, and listed irreconcilable differences as the reason. She also wants physical and legal custody of their 4-year-old daughter, but is offering Vince visitation. Melody is seeking spousal support.
Shlomi is known for hawking TV products like the "ShamWow" and the "Slap Chop." Back in 2009 he made headlines after getting arrested for punching out a prostitute in Miami Beach because she was biting his tongue. Prosecutors later declined to file charges.
It's unclear what went wrong between Shlomi and his wife, but the two were married on April 18, 2014.
