David's wife is a bigotted, self-centred, moronic shrew
Seriously, what was her problem? David allows Mr Bean to live in their home for 2 months and she leaves. Why? At this point she and her husband knew no better that he was just a doctor of art from Britain. But right away she assumes he's some creepy weirdo despite knowing him for like 2 minutes. So what is she a racist? Is the idea of someone who isn't American living in their home too much for her? Sure, Mr Bean immediately makes a fool of himself by breaking the portrait but that's their fault for putting a crystal decoration on a CD player. It was an accident waiting to happen.
So Bean makes a bad first impression and immediately she leaves with both kids, who also act like they couldn't care less leaving their father for no reason. Was being a rich Californian child not enough for these little brats? So the next time we see them they return home, hoping Mr Bean has left. But the moment they see Mr Bean with a newspaper on his head, they get out of there, without any questions about what happened or explanation for their leaving. His wife doesn't even say goodbye. At this point, David should have just said: "Hey, would you mind picking up some divorce papers on your way out?"
Then they come back for real whilst David and Mr Bean are out drinking. They return home drunk and his wife makes it out like David is the worst husband in the world. Can the guy not have a drink? Or socialise with his guests? Is he not allowed to make friends with the British? And then she says: "I think I'm going to have to leave you." WHY? What has the guy done that makes her think she'd be better without him? David obviously loves his family (though I can't imagine why) and he's a damn good provider since they live in a huge house in California. But for whatever reason, his family hates him, especially his wife. She even makes him sleep on the couch like he's some kind of stranger.
"But wait", you say. Don't they make amends by the end? Not really, his wife goes back to him but only because their daughter may be in a coma and she needs his huge paychecks to pay the medical bills. Then suddenly she's a helpless woman who needs a man to fill her life with. David being the dim-witted but caring person that he is tries to make it seem like their troubles were his fault and even says that Mr Bean has no reason to live in their home. Sure he doesn't, David was just being nice. The wife is just too much of an uptight b!tch to understand that the only reason David brought Mr Bean to their home was for his job. The same job that got them that giant house and everything they could ever want.
The real happy ending would have been if David left his gold digger wife for good and lived the rest of his life as a playboy in California. Sure, he could get custody of his kids if he really wanted to but as mentioned before they obviously don't think very highly of him. So why not let them live their adolescence with their mother and grandma. I'm sure they'll miss their luxury life eventually. I'm sure the son will enjoy going through puberty with no man around the house and as for the daughter. Notice how David wife shows no qualms about the biker moron she was dating, so she'll probably keep dating idiots like that until her first teen pregnancy. Yeah, I'm sure those two will look back and wish they treated their dad with a little more respect.
.....Wow, I wrote a lot more than I thought I would but I just never understood why David's family were so cruel to him. Horrible characters who shouldn't be in a Mr Bean movie.
