С самых первых дней их супружества Наташа заявила свои требования. (Л. Толстой, Война и мир) — The general opinion was that Pierre was under his wife's thumb which was really true. From the very first days of their married life Natasha had announced her demands.
Он, незаметно для самого себя, находился под башмаком у своей жены - женщины маленького роста, болезненной и жеманной. (А. Куприн, Молох) — He was unwittingly henpecked by his wife, a little, sickly woman with mincing manners.
