This will be very hard on Beta, but you have to do it. This doesn't mean you can't support her through the first couple of months of it, say. By which I mean - how long have you been living in the country and what has stopped her from going around meeting people, maybe learning a new language if that's necessary, learning to cope on her own?
At the end of the day, she chose to move to another country and must take some responsibility for that decision and for the life she has developed there.
(If anyone ever asks me whether they should or shouldn't come here to Egypt and their only apparent reason appears to be the relationship they are in, then I always ask them to consider whether if it all goes wrong, they would still want to be here and what kind of life they will build for themselves here.)
Ssandra is right, may be Anne will turn out to be everything you dream, maybe not, but Beta should be set free now and learn to fly on her own wings.
