Woman in engagement ring shock after Googling fiance's hidden past

A woman has revealed she discovered a hidden secret from her fiance’s past which has unearthed a dark truth about her engagement ring.

The woman called Hailey, shared her traumatic news on social media after using Google to search her long-term partner.

However, rather than finding his old Bebo account or an embarrassing school photograph, she found a Google review from the store he purchased her engagement ring from.

The devastating truth for TikTok user @hreb, was that she realised the review was dated before the couple had met, meaning the ring was originally bought for someone else.

In a tearful video upload, the gutted bride-to-be explained: “When I randomly decided to Google my fiance’s name on the couch and saw a review written on a jeweller’s website for my engagement ring before we even met”.

In the caption of the vid, which has clocked up over 34.6k likes at the time of writing, she clarified “sadly this is very true”.

Putting on a brave face in the comments section, the disappointed woman joked about her “trauma”, revealing that the ring is now “gone”.

Many of those commenting completely understood why the TikToker was so dismayed by her discovery, with one person remarking: “It’s the fact that it was originally purchased for a different girl that would tip me over the edge”.

Others wrote that they were now rushing to Google their other halves, to which @hreb sighed that she hoped they “don’t find anything like I did”.

When one person attempted to defend the man - remarking that “a ring is a ring” and that “maybe he couldn’t return it” - others were quick to explain that they were completely missing the point, report Mirror Online.

As one person put it: “Regardless, he could have sold it and bought a new ring with the money. I’d rather a $100 ring than one intended for or that belonged to another”.
