Man Finds Out His Wife of 16 Years Is Cheating, Gets a DNA Test for Each of Their 3 Kids

Discovering something shocking about one's spouse can be heartbreaking. One man never thought his wife would be unfaithful, but circumstances led him to the truth—it was more shocking than he ever imagined.

A man identified only as Chen loved his beautiful family and worked hard to provide for them. He treasured his wife and three children, always looking forward to spending time with them.

Work obligations meant Chen was away from home for lengthy periods, but he kept in contact with his wife and prioritized their relationship. Sadly, she didn't do the same. After searching, he learned shocking things that impacted his marriage and children.

His Wife's Infidelity Exposed

The husband became suspicious of his partner in 2022 when her behavior changed. She started avoiding his phone calls, and the pattern worried him, so he did an investigation of his own to find answers.

Chen tracked his wife of 16 years to get to the bottom of her sudden desire to work away from home. He used her phone's GPS, leading him to an unknown hotel.

There he witnessed a scene that proved all his doubts were warranted. His wife Yi allegedly visited the hotel with a man. Chen believed the man was her lover after he saw them checking out of the hotel the next day.

Chen was emotional about the ordeal and cried with interviewers in a video that has since gone viral.

The Husband Had To Make A Tough Choice

Angered and heartbroken, the husband needed to make a tough decision, which would have far-reaching implications. Would he remain in the marriage for the sake of his children or not?

A legal representative surnamed Zhou revealed that men in Chen's position could file for divorce after a "cooling off" 30 days and claim money from their partners if they used it as support payments. They explained:

"When he applies for a divorce, not only would the law encourage him to ask his wife to reimburse support payments and other expenses he paid for the three children, but he could also seek damages for psychological suffering."

There Were More Lies To Uncover

Chen revealed that he considered his options and wanted to forgive his spouse for her infidelity. However, there was more to the story than he realized.

The lies and deceit were never-ending, so Chen knew he needed to take a DNA test to determine the paternity of each of his three kids.

Learning The Truth About His Children

The tests confirmed Chen's worst fears. While he raised and loved the girls dearly, he was not their biological dad.

Realizing that his wife had been cheating on him for years was devastating, and the husband struggled to accept it. With tears in his eyes, Chen expressed:

"None of them was my own child (sic)."

The Wife Shares Her Side of The Story

The husband stated that upon receiving the paternity results, his wife left. Chen was emotional about the ordeal and cried with interviewers in a video that has since gone viral.

He asked media teams to help him find his partner of 16 years. When she was located, the woman shared her side of the story. Yi reportedly refused to accept the paternity results and said:

"I don't think I cheated on him. Is biological paternity important? Couples who are sterile adopt kids all the time."

She asked for sympathy for the sake of her daughters. "The three children called him 'dad' for many years, but now he says the daughters are not his own," Yi shared.

The Online Response

The online community had much to say about the couple's dramatic ordeal, and many netizens judged the wife's attitude toward her spouse.

People generously offered their kindness and support to Chen, hoping he would find comfort during such a painful time in his life:

"[At the] end of the day, no amount of money can heal the man's trauma."

"Heartless woman. The husband must have suffered over the years, feeling guilty not being able to be around to spend time with the girls. How can people do this to anyone?"

- (Melissa Low) June 9, 2022

"Poor guy. Sometimes life deals people a bad hand. I hope things work out. Maybe the real dad or dads don't want [anything] to do with the kids. Maybe he can raise them as their dad. Sad, these happen in life."

Actions always have consequences, and often they tear families apart. Hopefully, Chen and his loved ones can find a way to move forward after the shocking revelations that changed the entire dynamic of their lives.
