Reference for Ketubot 189:5

וכי קנו מידה מאי הוי תימא נחת רוח עשיתי לבעלי מי לא תנן לקח מן האיש וחזר ולקח מן האשה מקחו בטל אלמא יכולה היא שתאמר נחת רוח עשיתי לבעלי

But even if they made kinyan, what does it matter? Could she not say, “I merely wished to please my husband”? Have we not taught: If a man bought [a married woman’s property] from her husband and then bought it also from the wife, his purchase is legally invalid. Therefore, she can say, “I merely wished to please my husband.”
