Alleged wife-killer Brian Walshe wants witnesses at his upcoming Massachusetts murder trial to be barred from telling jurors that his missing wife, Ana , was a loving mother and dedicated employee.

Lawyers for the real estate exec, 50, made the request during a final hearing in Norfolk County Superior Court on Monday before jury selection was expected to get underway — possibly later in the day.

Walshe, of Cohasset — about 20 miles south of Boston on the Massachusetts Bay — is slated to go on trial on Dec. 1 on charges of first-degree murder and misleading and hiding the body of his 39-year-old spouse, who was the mother of his three children.
