Dr. Phil

Broken Nose, Broken Marriage (12x84)

Uitzenddatum: Jan 20, 2014

Mother of four Danielle says that after her now-estranged husband, Luis, left the military in 2005, he became jealous, paranoid and abusive — and two months ago, he was arrested for assaulting her. Danielle claims that Luis grabbed her by the neck and head-butted her in the face, leaving her with a broken nose and two black eyes. Luis spent two days in jail for the incident but insists he accidentally bumped Danielle’s face during a struggle — which he says she initiated. Despite filing two restraining orders against Luis, Danielle admits she continues to communicate with him -- and wants to see if they can save their marriage. Dr. Phil weighs in -- should they stay together, or are they better off apart? And, what is at the root of Luis’ rage?
