If your fiancee had a same-age peer (best friend) who made her feel the way her mother is making her feel, wouldn't you be working desperately to keep her away from that friend?

I think if you love your fiancee you will do everything in your power to get her away from her mother. It'll be tough, but I see clinical depression (if not already), eating disorders and suicide in the future for someone who can't separate themselves from such a toxic influence. All three act as a lever to gain control over one's life in the presence of (perceived) force. I don't think she can do it herself, so it's a good thing you're there.

GET HER AWAY FROM HER MOM.

BTW:

"A man who is engaged to be married is called his partner's fiancé; a woman similarly engaged is called her partner's fiancée. These words are pronounced identically in English; the separate feminine form exists because of the inflectional morphology of grammatical gender in French, where the term originated."
