Woman's fury as she discovers husband is cheating thanks to clue in bakery order

Finding out your partner or spouse has been cheating is never an easy thing to go through, but it can be even more devastating if you find out by accident rather than being told upfront.

That's exactly what happened to one woman, from the US, who contacted an independent bakery after discovering her husband had sent them money just before Valentine's Day last month - as the unusual transaction led her to find out the truth about her husband's infidelity.

The story was shared online by another baker on their TikTok account after they had been sent it anonymously by the owner of the bakery who took the husband's order.

And in the video, it was explained that the woman had seen a PayPal transaction she didn't recognise so had contacted the baker to find out what it was for - but they had wrongly assumed it was a Valentine's Day gift for her.

A message on the video - which was posted by @wanderlustsweets - from the woman read: "I found your name on PayPal and was curious why my husband's sending you money."

To which the baker replied: "I hope I'm not ruining any surprise, but I have a treat business and I'm selling gift boxes for Valentine's Day."

The woman then said she felt "silly" for doubting her husband and admitted she "assumed the worst" when she saw the odd transaction on his account.

But when Valentine's Day came around and she didn't get a gift box, the woman began to get suspicious again - so went back to the bakery to confirm who the order was for.

She said: "I only got some flowers for Valentine's Day and was curious what my husband purchased?"

"He purchased a set of naughty message berries with the name Ashlee", the owner of the store responded.

And the penny then dropped for the woman, as she exclaimed: "That's my best friend!"

The woman then confronted her husband, who later approached the bakery himself to demand that they tell his wife "it was a mistake" - as he claimed it was a "breach of contract" for them to tell his wife what he'd ordered.

Commenters on the TikTok video - which has over 1.4 million views - were firmly on the woman's side, with many of them stating that if she viewed the transaction from a joint account, then she has every right to know how her money was spent.

One person said: "There is no baker-customer confidentiality, this isn't a hospital."

While another added: "They are married and the order must have been paid for with a joint account, so she has a right to know how her money was spent."

"He breached their marriage contract though", a third quipped.
