He Picked His Mistress Over Our Family, but Life Had Other Plans
Sharing your personal life on social media can feel daunting, but for TikTok user @tattylomas, it was a chance to teach a life lesson. She opened up about her husband’s betrayal, the heartbreak it caused, and the unexpected twists that followed. Spoiler alert: Karma played a starring role.
Tatty’s story began like a fairytale. She and her ex-husband were high-school sweethearts. The moment she saw him, she knew he was “the one.” They married, built a life together, and welcomed three kids. Everything seemed perfect—until the day he dropped a bombshell.

He admitted there was another woman. He’d only known her for three months, but he claimed to be in love and demanded a divorce.
Heartbreak and a Hard Decision
Tatty’s world crumbled. How could he walk away from their family for someone so new? She tried to hold the marriage together for the sake of their children, but his mind was made up. He believed he deserved happiness—no matter the cost.
Realizing she couldn’t change his decision, Tatty decided to be strong for her kids. The divorce was painful, but she fought to keep their family home, which held deep sentimental value—it had been passed down from her grandmother. Winning the house came at a high price; she had to pay him a significant settlement.
Karma Comes Knocking
Just when Tatty started to heal, she got a text from her ex. He was sorry. He wanted her back. But after the pain he caused, there was no going back.
As it turned out, the “other woman” wasn’t all she seemed. She wrecked his car while driving drunk, and their once-perfect love story fell apart.
Meanwhile, Tatty found happiness again. Introduced by her sister, she met a kind and caring man who understood her journey. While they had no plans to marry, their relationship was meaningful and fulfilling.
Living Her Best Life
Tatty couldn’t help but feel a sense of satisfaction watching her ex deal with the fallout of his choices. “Call me evil if you want,” she said, “but he brought this on himself.”
At the end of her video, she left her ex a message: “Enjoy your shabby one-bedroom apartment and her broken-down car. My new partner and I will think of you while sipping cocktails in Hawaii. Oh, and maybe I’ll send you a postcard—since Hawaii was always your dream vacation.”
The comment section erupted in applause.
“SERVES HIM RIGHT!!!” one user exclaimed.
“YES GURL, U GO!!!” another cheered.
“Send him a postcard with pics of you and your new man!” someone suggested.
For Tatty, revenge wasn’t about schemes or drama. Watching her ex live with his regrets was satisfying enough.
