Reading the article, I don't see her being dismissed as much as in the title - actually, they are admiring her style and posting the part about her being an artist (at least self-proclaimed), and not her "properly working and popular" husband.
"Wife of ___" is pretty dismissive.
"Pretty good... for a WOMAN!"
Yes, they pointed out as much already.
