A heartbroken mum-to-be has been left in an impossible situation after discovering her husband cheated on her with her sister – and now they are both expecting his children.
The pregnant wife claims she discovered her partner’s unfaithfulness two months ago and that he’s tried to earn her forgiveness ever since.
“He told me they [her sister and husband] were pregnant with twins and begged for my forgiveness. He spoiled me with gifts, he offered to buy me an apartment, a new car, whatever I wanted. He said if she goes through with the pregnancy that he will have no part in it, that he would only be a father to the child I mother,” she explained.
She felt ‘ready to divorce him’ and ‘start a new life without him and my sister’, until she found out she’s expecting as well.
Now, the wife tragically feels that she has no choice but to stay with her partner for financial security.
Explaining her concerns in a post to Reddit, the woman wrote: “I can’t afford a child on my own, he’s been there for me financially since I was 20, I’ve never had to struggle on my own, I never went to college because i would never need to work with him in my life.
“I didn’t even consider the possibility of him not in my life because I was so stupidly in love and arrogant. I got everything I wanted, I had a perfect family and a perfect husband, a perfect house a perfect life.”
The heartbroken woman added: “We had fertility issues and trying to conceive was a struggle, my pregnancy was supposed to be a blessing but instead I’m wondering why now, why after all this? I’ve yearned for this for years and now it’s happening and I don’t even know how I’m going to be able to put a roof over my baby’s head if I leave him.”
As such, she was keen to hear any advice commenters could offer.
One person suggested: “Go consult a divorce lawyer, find out what your options are.”
Someone else revealed: “Yeah my husband cheated on me with my sister. I’m getting a divorce. Hell no I deserve better than that. I’m also not close to my sister anymore. Being single has to be better than being cheated on.”
Meanwhile, another replied: “I’m so sorry you’re going through this, and that you have been so betrayed by such dear people. I don’t know what to tell you. People can be truly vile to each other.”
