Discovering a hidden email on my husband’s iPad was a shock. What I uncovered next left me questioning everything about our life together.

While Adam was away with our son and his brother, an email popped up on his iPad from an apartment complex about hot water repairs, addressed to him by name. We own our house and haven’t rented in over ten years. This was fishy.

He was in upstate New York with no service. When I finally reached him, he said, “Must be a mistake.” But if it’s a mistake, how do they have his full name?

There were no other emails from this sender, but the complex was only fifteen minutes away. I called my friend Stacy, and we went to the apartment. A 25-year-old woman opened the door. She looked terrified and closed the door. Inside, I heard multiple women and children.

I confronted Adam when he returned. He admitted to having a secret life with other women and children. “I wanted a life with multiple wives,” he confessed. I was shattered. I filed for divorce and full custody of our children.
