"For three years, while virtually everyone close to us believed John was missing presumed dead, he was actually at home with me," Anne Darwin, who recently left Britain for central America, told the Daily Mirror.
最近离开英国去过中美洲的安妮-达尔文告诉每日镜报：“三年来，当每个亲近我们的人实际上都相信约翰失踪，进而推测已经死亡的时候，其实他却一直和我呆在家里。 ”
"We were living as man and wife, although it was far from a conventional life," she added.

Anne Darwin spoke to the Daily Mail in Miami where she had traveled from Panama , apparently heading to Britain after telling reporters she had been "living a lie" and fears her children would never forgive her.
安妮-达尔文曾经告诉记者，她一直在一种谎言中生活，现在她怕她的孩子们永远也不会原谅她。此后，她又在迈阿密接受每日邮报的采访，而她是从巴拿马抵达那里的，显然她是要前往英国。
She told the Daily Mirror her husband partly lived with her in the family home but, if visitors called, had to flee through the passage hidden by a wardrobe with a false back. It led to one of several apartments the other house was divided into.
她告诉每日镜报，她丈夫只有一部分时间和她一起住在家里，但是，如果有客人拜访，他就通过那条通道逃走，那条通道就隐蔽在一只背面造假的壁橱旁边，通向另一套房子被分成的若干单元之一。
Former prison officer Darwin vanished in March 2002 from his home in Hartlepool , but according to his wife, he turned up at their house a year later.
前狱官达尔文于2002年3月从他在哈特勒普尔的家中蒸发，但是根据他妻子的说法，一年之后又在他们家里突然出现了。
"I didn't even recognize him at first," she told the Mirror. "He was an absolute mess, all disheveled. I was relieved he was alive, of course, but I was also very angry with him."
“起初我甚至都认不出他，”她告诉镜报。“他简直糟糕到家了，根本就没刮脸。当然令我欣慰的是，他还活着，但我对他也很恼火。”
She added: "We had a lot of debt, in the tens of thousands. He said there was only one way out of the situation and that was to fake his death. I said it was the wrong thing to do and could not go along with it but he badgered away."
她补充说： “我们欠了一屁股债，欠款额数以万计。他说只有一个办法能摆脱困境，那就是制造一个他已死亡的骗局，我说这是在做错事，我不赞成，但他却纠缠不休 。 ”
She said the couple decided to move to Panama but Darwin, who was missing their sons Anthony and Mark, invented a plan to "return from the dead."
她说，他们夫妇决定搬迁到巴拿马，但达尔文想念儿子安东尼和马克，于是就炮制出一个“死而复生”的计划 。
"I didn't think he would get away with it, but he had enough of being dead. John desperately wanted contact with the boys."
"我认为他不会侥幸蒙混过关，可他已经吃够了死亡的苦头。约翰非常想要和孩子们取得联系。 “
