Well, if your wife leaves the UK permanently and move to another country, you lose your right to live in the UK as your rights are derived from her. You can't stay in the UK if you wife is not living here any more. Your RC becomes invalid. How would the HO know? Well, if you don't travel outside the UK, they will probably won't find out but still it doesn't mean that your stay in legal (even if your RC dates have not expired).

thanks

The HO just confirms your rights so if you (i.e. your EEA partner) meet the requirements there should not be any problem applying again for RC in a few years.
