She can’t leave, she can’t support herself and can’t even handle daily tasks, even if you pay her alimony it’s typically not enough to survive on her own unless she wants to live in extreme poverty, and she has no extended family to help her.
So she ain’t going no where, at least not on her own accord. She just manipulates you
I’d call her bluff. “Sure I understand you want to leave. That’s ok. Let’s do that.”

She can say all she wants but she's really been living in a care-free bubble with little-to-no responsibilities. She's not going to want to let this go. She really does NEED you.
Next time she threatens, say, "If you think that's for the best.." and let her think about it.
