Dr. Phil - Season 11 Episode 175 The Ultimate Home Invasion
Mary claims her husband, Jesse, is abusive, unfaithful and controlling, and she feels like she’s living in a prison. She says he refuses to let her have a car, cell phone or friends and has not allowed her to leave the house in five months. She says they fight every day, and claims that during one brutal altercation, he punched her and fractured an eye socket, leaving her with a black eye for a month -- a claim he vehemently denies. Jesse says he’s not controlling, he’s just “containing the beast,” and that his wife needs to abide by his rules if she wants to stay married. He says he believes Mary got pregnant to trap him and the only reason he’s still with her is because of their three kids. Jesse says he discovered that Mary had an affair two years ago -- and now wonders if he’s even the father of their children. Mary says the affair was emotional, not sexual, and claims her husband’s treatment of her pushed her to do it.
