She probably has to cater to his every need like he's an infant. Unless he has a special nurse, that wife of his cooks all of his meals, helps him to the toilet--if he can even get there, but it's more likely he wears a diaper, and washes in between huge monuments of fat.
That isn't happy.

I just wrote a huge reply then my internet clapped out...nice.
She did marry him after he managed to get himself into his current state, she knew he was morbidly obese and that she would have to go through those things but still wanted to marry him. That is a lot of love and he obviously makes her happy enough that she will go through this with him.
He is currently losing the weight...he's lost like, over 200lbs. So he is trying to do something about it. I am not gunna undermine their relationship because I am not in it.
It's the same as a person whose husband or wife is severely disabled, the person with a disability can't cook them meals or spontaneously buy them flowers but they're still together and have been for years, surely you wouldn't undermine that?
Relationships in general have their moments where they are not ideal, my girlfriend has Aspergers and that can be really hard (I know it's different but it's the same point) but when it's good it's awesome just because there are bad points doesn't mean there is no good and you can't be happy together.
Maybe you think that's wishy washy and complete bullshit but...whatever.
