A British man has emerged from the woods near Kingston, south west London, after 10 years of hiding from his nagging wife.
It’s reported that 62-year-old Malcolm Applegate married his wife in Birmingham 13 years ago, but that she grew tired of his gardening after 3 years and asked for them to spend more time together.
Malcolm said “how can I?”, then took off to London to escape his wife’s controlling behaviour.
Malcolm says he lived at a makeshift camp, with several men, but that he showered and worked at a nearby elderly center.
According to Malcolm, the area was not well known, and nobody knew they were there.
Malcolm left when he heard about a job at Emmaus Greenwich, a homeless shelter that helps people ‘rebuild their lives’.
After settling in Greenwich, Malcolm reached out to his wife, who assumed he was dead, but was in ‘floods of tears’ when she called him to confirm the news.
Malcolm says they now have a great relationship again, and that he works odd jobs and raises money for homeless charities.
