In a 999 call made shortly after 7pm, Hanson told an emergency operator that she had stabbed Mr Hanson 'just out of anger'.
She said: 'We had an argument. I was cutting, cooking tea and he told me to 'f*** off' and 'I'm a bitch' so I just like, I don't know what I did'.'
When emergency crews arrived at the couple's £250,000 village home, Hanson offered them cash to save his life.
She told two paramedics: 'You lot are the experts. If you can save him I'll give you £1,000 each if you can.'
On her arrest, Hanson, who had denied murder, claimed her husband had accidentally walked on to the outstretched knife.
And, in a later account, she said that she pushed him away because he was shouting in her face - unaware that the blade had penetrated his cotton t-shirt and chest.
She claimed she continued chopping onions with the same blade and only realised her husband had been fatally stabbed when she heard their dog bark.
Judge Thackray, the Recorder of Hull, said his sentence took into account calls for clemency from the couple's adult children.
He said: 'This provocation to you did not justify your actions.
'There is only one sentence that can be imposed upon you and that is a sentence of life imprisonment.
Okay, what I'm seeing is something slightly different from this.
From what I read - the husband had required nursing due to injuries in 1997, and 2012. The latter date was a head injury, and it had left him with ongoing issues, including headaches. He was also a heavy drinker (of alcohol, obviously). They had an ongoing set of arguments about his drinking, as she wanted him to stop. This built up a lot of tension and friction that resulted in this incident.
Also, she didn't get life, she got "a minimum of nine years in jail". That's not life, is it?
Not saying anything about this was right, or that she's a great person or anything. Frankly, for reasons I won't go into here, this story is a bit too close to home for me right now. But reading between the lines, I'd say the husband was changed after his head injury, he was a bit of a drunk, and his wife - after many arguments and insults - cracked and did the deed.
Couple of quotes from the judge:
""Undoubtedly, you immediately regretted what you had done and did your best to save him by calling for an ambulance and attempting life-saving treatment...Your state of distress as you tried to save him could be heard on the 999 call and was palpable. As was the heart-wrenching scream by you...""
"Judge Thackray told Hanson he was "satisfied that you were subject to significant provocation from Paul Hanson, who not for the first time was verbally abusing you because you were attempting, in his interests, to curtail his drinking."
"He sought to continue the argument as you were cutting onions as he came into the kitchen shouting at you."
The judge told Hanson she had played down the provocation while giving her evidence in the trial "in order to protect the memory of your husband"."
