While Pregnant, I Attended a Pottery Party That Turned into a Surreal Nightmare

Olivia thought taking a pottery class with her friend Ava would be a lighthearted way to pass time during her second pregnancy. Instead, it unearthed a devastating secret about her husband.

One woman in the class casually mentioned a story about her boyfriend, Malcolm, leaving their date to attend his niece Tess’s birth on July 4th. Olivia froze—Tess was her daughter, born on that exact date. As the woman continued, Olivia’s suspicion grew, culminating in a shocking revelation: Malcolm, her husband, was the father of the woman’s son.

Confronting Malcolm confirmed her worst fears. He had been living a double life, fathering a child with another woman. Heartbroken and betrayed, Olivia knew she couldn’t stay in the marriage.

Now, five weeks before her due date, she’s focused on building a new life for herself and her children—one rooted in love, trust, and healing.

What would you do in her shoes?
