“I wore make-up to hide bruises my wife gave me” Man opens up about the years of abuse he suffered in his marriage

A husband who suffered abuse at this hands of his wife for 20 years has opened up about the harrowing years.

Sheree Spencer, a mother of three little girls and a senior manager at the Ministry of Justice, was sentenced last week to four years in prison at Hull Court.

The judge said it was “the worst case of controlling and coercive behaviour”.


Speaking later about the sentencing, Richard Spencer said in an interview with Dailmail correspondent Rebecca Hardy: ” felt absolutely nothing the few times I glanced across at Sheree. I didn’t feel anger. I didn’t feel scared. I didn’t have any emotion.

“But I was hyper-conscious of how my family was reacting when the judge described the horrific things she’d done.

“To hear the judge use the same language Sheree used — the f-word and the c-word — the things she called me like ‘bitch’ and knowing my family were hearing those things was . . .” He stops as he struggles to find the words.

“When I think about those memories, I don’t feel associated to them. It’s like they happened to someone else. I know it was me but, in my mind, I can’t understand how I could have allowed that to happen.”

During the two decades of abuse, he was subjected to daily beatings and verbal attacks that left him cowering on the floor in the foetal position.

This is the first time Richard has relived his 20-year ordeal at the hands of his wife Sheree, a senior project manager for HM Prison and Probation Service who boasted to friends of meetings with former prime minister Boris Johnson.

Last week, she was sentenced to four years in prison at Hull Crown Court after pleading guilty to coercive and controlling behaviour and three counts of assault occasioning actual bodily harm.

Her campaign of violence and intimidation is almost too shocking to catalogue. She spat in his face. Hit him with whatever she had to hand — a bottle, a mobile phone, a TV remote control.

On one occasion, she defecated on the floor, then forced him to clear it up. On another, she beat him with a wine bottle so hard it permanently disfigured his ear.

Richard, 46, has a degree in computing at Leeds Metropolitan University and a position at BT in network design that soon saw him addressing global conferences as an expert in his field. Yet, that didn’t stop him from suffering extreme abuse.


He shared videos of abuse which were captured on a security camera in the children’s playroom.....

I respect women who knows how to express their anger without using violence and expecting the guy to act gently......

If any woman Kay's a finger on me while I was verbally talking to her, I will retaliate and we face the consequences together!

Speaking of the men, because this issue concerns a man.

Never allow your masculinity and sense be replaced with mouka foam.
