A woman who confessed that she’s “the most jealous woman in the world” makes her husband take a lie detector test every day when he gets home from work.
Debbi Wood is married to Steve Wood, who is 40 years old. She is 52 years old and lives in Leicester, England. After going out for three years, they got married in 2014.
A source says that Debbie, who met Steve through a friend in 2011, doesn’t let him watch TV or even look at pictures of women in magazines.
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.
Debbie said at the time that she knew what was wrong with her, but she couldn’t stop herself.
I’m relieved to finally know what’s wrong with me but I still have a long way to go. Even if Steve pops out for 15 minutes to buy a pint of milk, I make him take a lie detector test as soon as he gets home.
I get so worried that he’s been eyeing up the shop assistant that I just have to know the truth.
Debbie also said that even though her husband is a faithful man, she couldn’t trust him when he used to go out and look at other women.
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 said.
I don’t want him thinking they’re hot. If you’re in a relationship and you’re happy with your partner, you should only have eyes for that person.
Before Debbie met Steve in 2011, she was in a long-term relationship that broke her heart. This made her feel terrible.
She was so heartbroken that she vowed to never get into another relationship – and experts believe the emotional trauma triggered her illness,
per source.
In 2011, one of Debbie’s Facebook friends set her up with Steve Wood. Debbie and Steve talked through Messenger for a few weeks before she went to London for their first date.
I knew we were meant to be a couple when we shared our first kiss under London Bridge. I didn’t mean to fall in love again after my last relationship, but Steve stole my heart,
she said.
The only problem was that we lived so far apart. We started to get serious and made plans to move in together, but I then discovered that Steve had been seeing another girl around the time we’d first met.
He claimed he didn’t think we were exclusive because of the distance, and I forgave him, but I started to doubt whether or not he could be faithful.
After they got engaged in 2013 and moved in together, her jealousy got worse.
She installed child-proof filters on his laptop and mobile phone to stop him looking at explicit pictures of women and banned him from watching any television programs featuring women.
One night, an advert for a women’s razor came on television, and I felt panicky thinking that Steve was eyeing the model up,
she said.
The only thing that could put my mind at rest was banning him from watching any programs that have women in them. Now, I won’t even let him watch The Weakest Link in case he fancies Anne Robinson but I’m scared he’ll have a sneaky look when I’m in another room.
Debbie said that after that, she went online and bought the lie detector so she would 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.
In 2015, the couple did another interview with Philip Scholfield, the host of This Morning, and answered several questions about their relationship.
But aren’t you going to frighten him off?
Philip asked Debbie.
I don’t think I could frighten him off if I tried,
she replied.
When Schofield asked Steve if his relationship with Debbie made him feel scared, he said,
There is no danger of me running away ‘any time soon’ as if I was going to run away from my wife, I’d have done it already.
