Tread,

I think your son has a lot to process right now, I do not see any benefit in him finding out its with someone he knows.. That is a lot for a kid to handle.

Also, if he does approach you, I would not bash your WW, I would let him know that you and his mother were having marital issues, and his mother saw a way to escape the issues / hurt. That you and your W's marriage is not a reflection of him, and that for now you all just need to take time and process what is going on, and try and find the path that brings everyone the most happiness in the future.

This is his mother, I highly recommend not trying to get even with her by demonizing her to son.
