His missus being unfaithful makes him horny (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cuckold

This might be a double definition.

'his missus' is the first definition.
The answer is a person as well as being a singular noun. This is suggested by the definition.

'unfaithful makes him horny' is the second definition.
The answer is a person as well as being a singular noun. This is suggested by the definition.

'being' is the link.

(Other definitions for cuckold that I've seen before include "Husband with an unfaithful wife" , "Man whose wife has been adulterous" , "fool of a husband" , "Betrayed husband" , "One cheated" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
