Video footage shows the wife, Dr. Dayana Segtowich, standing on the steps of her husband Fabricio's pickup truck on the streets of Belem, Brazil, last weekend.
Dayana angrily hit the rearview mirror and tried to pull it off while shouting at her husband - who was trying to drive fast.
Another video shows Fabricio standing outside the car after it stops and violently pushing Dayana away from the vehicle, according to Mail Online.
Recently, Dayana spoke out for the first time about the incident by posting a photo of herself in gym clothes on Instagram.
She wrote: "Thank you so much for the sisterhood of everyone who sent messages. Women don't cry, they make money and do squats!".
Dayana, a renowned doctor in Brazil who specializes in diagnosing cosmetic complications, hinted at her dissatisfaction with her husband in an Instagram post last week.
Her followers have been enthusiastically supportive in the 24 hours since the video went viral across social media.
One person commented: "Why would you lower yourself to your husband like that? From the pictures, it's clear that he doesn't love you... Life is tough, but it will be okay."
Another wrote: "Don't go back to him. Men like that don't change! You are incredibly beautiful and deserve the best."
It is not yet clear whether Dayana was injured in the incident. She did not reveal the state of her health or her relationship with her husband. However, fans speculate that she made the right choice for herself and her children after a difficult time.
Last year, social media in China was abuzz with a woman clinging to a car but her husband refused to stop and dragged her for about 20 meters on the road. Only when passersby shouted and ran to help did he stop.
This woman discovered her husband driving his mistress and argued with him. The husband was criticized by the people for his reckless driving, blatant adultery, and violent treatment of his wife.
Police arrived at the scene to take the wife’s statement about being dragged by her husband in a moving car, causing injuries. The husband promised to hand over the house, car and custody of the two children to his wife and filed for divorce to follow his new love.
