Jessica May: How I Caught My Partner Cheating After Everyone Told Me I Was Crazy

What would you do if you suspected your partner was having an affair — and you caught him texting her while you were giving birth to your second child? Jessica May (@jessicamay_home) had the picture-perfect life. Two kids, a beautiful home, a partner of nearly ten years. Then she discovered he'd been having an affair — and the gaslighting that followed almost broke her. In this episode, Jessica shares how she found out, why she begged him to stay, how his own family blamed her, and what finally gave her the strength to leave.
