‘World’s Most Jealous’ Woman Made Husband Take Lie Detector Test Every Time He Came Home
A self-confessed ‘world’s jealous woman’ makes her husband take a lie detector test every day when he returns home from work.
Debbi Wood is a 52-year-old woman from Leicester, England is married to Steve Wood, 40. Debbie Wood, would stray she even combed his phone, email accounts and bank statements for signs of infidelity several times a day.
But she has put her fears to one side and married Mr Wood in a Halloween ceremony. The couple tied the knot in 2014 after dating for three years.
Mrs Wood wore a white gown with lace and diamante detail, topped with a tara, while her groom sported a smart grey suit.
Shortly before saying ‘I do’, Mr Wood expressed his excitement over the couple’s big day on his Facebook page.
He wrote: ‘So… The next time I post something on here i will be doing so as a married man…. Who’d have thought eh?? Thanks to EVERYONE who has been with me on this journey of life up to now (too many to mention) and thank you to the amazing woman who in just a couple of hours from now will be my wife… Love you babe and thank you.’
Mrs Wood, who changed her name to match her fiancé’s before the couple wed, also changed her online status to reflect their marriage, and wrote: ‘I love you toi husband xx (sic).’
“Mr. and Mrs. Wood first made headlines in 2013 after she was diagnosed with a rare condition, Othello Syndrome – a psychiatric disorder which causes sufferers to believe their partners have been unfaithful – even without evidence.”
She had even banned him from watching women on television or looking at pictures of them in magazines
Speaking to the outlet back then, Debbie said she knew what was wrong with her, but she just couldn’t help herself.
‘I think he’s gorgeous, but that’s not the issue – it’s about whether or not I can trust him not to look at other women while he is out on his own,’ she had said.
Debbie said after that she ordered the lie detector device from an online store to know for sure when and where her then-fiance’s eyes were wandering.
“In general, he’s quite truthful but I have caught him lying a few times about looking at other women,” she said.
The couple started dating in 2011 after they met through a friend.
Mrs Wood had spent ten years living in the U.S. but moved back to Britain four years ago after another long-term relationship broke down.
She was so heartbroken that she vowed to never get into another relationship – and experts believe the emotional trauma triggered her illness.
Mrs Wood was living in her native Scotland when a mutual friend introduced her to Mr Wood on Facebook a year later.
After exchanging messages for several weeks, she travelled to London where the pair enjoyed their first date.
Mrs Wood was diagnosed with Othello Syndrome last September, with the condition affecting her so badly that she could barely leave the house.
She was prescribed anti-anxiety medication and also underwent therapy to deal with her issues, hoping to marry Mr Wood after her treatment.
Mr Wood admitted life with his partner could be tough – but insisted she was worth it.
He said: ‘Sometimes, I get nervous and the lie detector test results come back inconclusive because my heart is hammering, which makes Debbi doubt me. I just have to tell her I haven’t cheated and pray she believes me.
‘I’m willing to put up with it, because I know we’re soulmates. She’s so special to me and a bit of jealousy here and there won’t change that.’
