Alison Moore, who smeared faeces in her husband's mouth for "talking s***", wants to reconcile and is selling their £1.2 million home to make a fresh start. Moore was handed an 18-month suspended jail sentence at Southampton Crown Court on Thursday for subjecting her husband Rob to several violent episodes.
Couple Separated After Attack
The couple separated after the faeces attack, which unfolded following a row while returning from a local pub. Moore is now living in an Airbnb, while their three-bedroom farmhouse has been put on the market. The Daily Mail reports the sale is to give the Moores a "fresh start" as they discuss trying to save their marriage.
The property, which dates back to the 1700s, sits on a half-acre orchard in Damerham, Hampshire, and comes with a six-car garage, stables, and a paddock.
Village Reactions and 'Poogate'
Damerham is a tiny village of just 500, with a village hall and a pub, which Moore is barred from after downing a bottle of wine and snorting a line of cocaine. The Compass Inn barred her in 2022 for six months after the incident, which resulted in her showing up at her builder's house and attacking his girlfriend.
A worker at the pub told the Mail: "We took this action last year because she gets quite out of control after a drink. This is a very quiet, friendly pub but she could get very rowdy after a few. She is the only person we have ever barred."
A regular, who is friends with Rob, added: "He's a lovely, quiet man. There's nobody around here who's got a bad word to say about him. But I can't say the same for Alison - let's just say she can get quite troublesome after a drink."
Future Uncertain
Her latest scandal has reportedly become known as "poogate" in the village. While she stays in a holiday let in Dorset following a brief three-week stint in HMP Bronzefield, Rob is still living in their home with their two dogs while the property is up for sale.
A friend of the couple who lives nearby said: "They've put their house up for sale, but even though they have been living apart, they are in contact and are talking about the future - and how it could yet be with each other. It's quite unbelievable really that they think they might still have a future together after what happened, given the way Alison has treated him over the years. But they are talking about the chance of making a fresh start away from Damerham. I think they just want to be in a place where nobody knows them."
Another villager said: "I know I wouldn't want to be with a woman who had shoved s*** into my mouth. I don't know how you come back from that as a couple. But each to his own, and if they can work it out, well, I say hats off to them. Most men wouldn't be able to do it."
