Deportee Wives Club

May 18, 2019

Three American women are not letting the border break up their marriage. They all moved to Merida, Mexico to join their undocumented husbands who were deported. This small town is home to a growing community of women who call themselves the “Deportee Wives Club.” While trying to make a new life in Mexico, many yearn to return home, some with or without their spouse. Correspondent Leoni Lakhani reports from Merida, Mexico.
