Well done Mollie. Especially as it sounds like he was a coercive control type ('Richard continually reminded me that no-one would want me now, and that I was stuck with him.' Ugh)
But don't you wish they'd used the neutral word 'reports' rather than 'shops' - definition:
'inform on (someone).
"she shopped her husband to bosses for taking tools home"
synonyms:
inform on/against, betray, sell out, tell tales on, be disloyal to, be unfaithful to, break one's promise to, break faith with, stab in the back;'
The overall tone of the piece is positive but the headline and start give an unjustified sour note.
