she has a message for her husband.
I would interpret this as her needing some type of psychological help. What could she need help from that he would think taking her away would help? Depression? She's not had an "easy" childhood.
IF (and I'm far from convinced this is the case) it is from sexual abuse from him and she's been acting out, and his wife doesn't know about the abuse, that could make him want to take her away, too. If it's acting out from sexual abuse from him, of course he'd want to get her away if his wife had been talking about getting her help. I do not believe its medical. That could easily be solved at home.
