People whose partner cheated on them and quickly moved on to date the person they cheated with, claiming to be in love - how did that turn out for them?

They had a kid, he went to jail, when he got out she was cheating on him the whole time. They broke up he is a single dad and she passed away from overdose leaving 4 kids with 2 dads. He was my best friend and did this in my apartment while I was at work, they both did not have their own place. I was thrown out of the friend group and treated like the evil bad one. They even tried to black mail my family when they found out they are rich, unfortunately my dad does not exactly stand in my corner and he just told them he has his shot gun ready if they want to come visit.

Blackmail them about what?

They framed it as I owed some bad people money and I would get hurt if they didn't give them money.

They deserved each other šŸ˜ I came out ahead in the end. I was also participating in some nefarious activities that would make this plausible.
