John Carroll, 52, kicked the bucket in emergency clinic on 2 April in the wake of being harmed at the property he imparted to his better half at Alwold Court in Selly Oak, Birmingham.
Deborah Carroll, 54, wounded her better half before his companion in “a liquor fuelled local question”.
She was given a ten-year least term at Birmingham Crown Court.
The companion, who Mr Carroll had gone out drinking with the earlier day, told the court Mrs Carroll assaulted “abruptly, with a kitchen blade” as her better half sat in the kitchen, police said.
