NC, I just wanted to share a little info with you that happened in my situation. The H of the OW hired a PI to trail my H and his wife.
He started the investigation in November and shared his finding with me in January. I had never talked to him before. I suspected that my H and his W were having an affair (boss/secretary), but this was confirmed by him then.
He spent endless hours with the PI gathering info in hopes of using it for custody. He had video of my H spending the night with her while the son was there. He had video for several months to show it was ongoing. Days before the hearing the OW's H's attorney told her attorney that they had this evidence. So during the hearing she had no alternative than other to admit to the affair and yes, they had sex in the room right across the hall from her son. Unfortunately, this had little or no bearing on the outcome of the hearing. She still got primary custody of the son with her XH getting him on the weekends.
She now likes to throw it up in her XH's face that he spent all of that money on the PI and it didn't do him any good. Yes, she is such a sweetheart. Well, I have a few choice words I would used to describe her but I'm going to be a lady and refrain.
