Become angry when husband leaves? Get stuffed (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

overeat

'get stuffed' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.

(Other definitions for overeat that I've seen before include "pig out?" , "Stuff oneself silly" , "Gobble to excess" , "Consume excessively" , "Consume too much food, stuff your stomach" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
