Well she was a bitter old alcoholic and he fell in love with another woman. She found out and told him she had six monts to live to guilt him into staying. He learned the truth and filed for divorce. She later died of alcohol poisoning in 2002, and he was murdered by his second wife, Chrissie, in 2005.

he says it in that clip, but the back story was, den was gonna run away with his misstress, so angie lied and said she had 6 months to live to keep him from leaving her, then he found out resulting to the divorce.
