missus's

Belonging to wife

Missus's is the possessive form of missus, the informal term for a wife or female head of household.

The missus's car is in the shop.

The word missus itself derives from a casual pronunciation of mistress, now used affectionately or humorously to refer to one's spouse: I'd better check with the missus first.
