The Most Asked-About Couple to Face Dr. Phil

Aired on 09/10/2002 | CC tv-pg
Oprah called them the most asked-about couple to ever face Dr. Phil: controlling Rochelle and her husband, John. A year into their marriage, Rochelle said she wanted to change everything about John's behavior until it was "just right." She kept a notebook of rules for him to follow, which outlined things like how much soda he could have in a day, how to sleep and how to fold her jeans.

When the couple first sat down with Dr. Phil, he had a few words of warning for this demanding wife. Watch as he tells Rochelle that she's the one who needs to change—or risk getting dumped.
