I dunno; I could argue the opposite. The near-strangulation was unconscious, but the deception at the airport was deliberate betrayal, and when he was already on probation in effect.

If that's the line to be taken, she would probably be happier still with a dead husband whose showplace in Cornwall could be sold. Much depends on whether or how much she had loved him. And to what extent would she prefer to be in America? I get the impression she's ready to go home, and the boys, too.
