i take it if she leaves France, and her passport is not checked or marked as she leaves the airport to board the plane to go back to the phils, then no one knows she has overstayed.

so applying for a visa shouldn't be a problem, if she is stopped and her passport is marked, then it still might not matter, and also she has not overstayed in the uk, and there is no mandatory ban for overstaying spouses.
Dont the phils stamp the passport with the flight number on it?

That could possibly cause a problem with some ECos if they pick up on it.

Unless you flew back cathay or singapore for example and tranist through an asian country so the flight in phill appears as its one from the asean area?
