A WOMAN has shared the heart-wrenching story after discovering her dear Romeo has been unfaithful to her with her MOTHER.

Finding out that your loved one has been cheating is difficult to process as it is - but the shocking discovery is even more agonising when it happens with someone you've always trusted... like your mum.

Unfortunately, this is exactly what happened to one woman whose life was turned upside down after realising that her husband has been having an affair with her mother - for a total of six years.

Sharing the emotional story on Reddit, The Mirror reported, the woman explained how she started dating her now-husband when she was 19 and the couple went on to tie the knot and have children.

However, turns out that the man has been sleeping with her mother since before their daughter's birth - and that's not the worst element of it all.

Much to the woman's surprise, the mum had also recently announced that the new couple had some pretty big plans.

She wrote in the post: "My mum confessed to me over the phone she'd been having an affair with my husband and that she's going to throw dad out and move my husband in with her and take our four-year-old daughter in with her.

"My husband admitted to it that same night. We've been together as a couple since I was 19, he was 21.

''I'm a mum and shouldn't have to be dealing with this.

''My husband has told me he's leaving me to move in with mom soon.''

According to the woman, her hubby and her mum had always ''got on well'' - but never in a million years she thought they'd be ''having an affair''.

''It makes me feel sick to think they were f***ing."

To make matters even worse, her husband has since dropped the bombshell news that he wants to take their daughter 1,700 miles all the way from Arkansas to Los Angeles - and have the grandma raise her as her own daughter.

"I've told my husband he and mom aren't taking my daughter but he insisted 'She's going to live with me and your mom and your mom will be her stepmom, get with the program'."

According to the woman, her mother ''has always had something of an ego'' after attending a drama club for several years.

5 telltale signs your partner is cheating

Tracey Cox, a sex expert, revealed the five signs that could indicate that your partner is unfaithful to you - and why more passion in the bedroom is actually a huge red flag.

  1. You’re having passion in the bedroom than usual - the expert claimed that some people are more passionate at home because they’re having sex on the side and as a result, the affair sexually arouses them. 
  2. They’re being more loving or critical than usual - not only this, but if your partner all of a sudden is more loving, or on the opposite end of the spectrum, is more critical than usual, these are signs that something isn’t right.
  3. They accuse YOU of cheating - the guru explained: “It sends a signal that they believe cheating is a bad thing and they must care about you, or they wouldn’t care less if you cheated.''
  4. They avoid eye contact - ''In fact, research suggests if your partner can look you in the eyes and touch you lovingly at the same time, it’s a good indication they aren’t up to anything.''
  5. Their interests change - Tracey concluded that if your partner used to love rom-coms and now they’re into serious documentaries, or were once a fan of 90s pop, but now it’s Indie: “The new person is changing or expanding their interests and hobbies.” 

After going through her man's iPhone, she was horrified to see that there were dozens of images of her mum in lingerie and skimpy bikinis, alongside ''sexy text messages''.

The incident has left her father, a trooper for Arkansas State Police, feeling "stressed and upset" - and, just like his daughter, is also questioning his whole relationship with his wife.

Seeking advice from fellow Redditors, she added: "I don't know how the hell I will ever be able to deal with this, is my mum an Nmum (narcissist mom)?

''Apart from divorcing my husband (which my husband wants to do so he can be with my mum, they jokingly call each other the power couple) how can I cope emotionally?

''Has anyone on here been in a situation like mine and how did you get through it?"

I mean cheating is bad anyway, but cheating on you with your own mother for almost a decade? F*** that

The post soon took the internet by storm, as people flocked to share their advice, with one suggesting: ''I think you should fight for full custody of your daughter, and if they move away with her, go to the police immediately.

''From what I can see, your husband will not be a good parent. I'm not sure I can help you with coping, but I'd suggest unhealthy amounts of pizza."

Another chimed in: "Holy freaking s*** this is just awful. I mean cheating is bad anyway, but cheating on you with your own mother for almost a decade? F*** that.

''Just leave him, eat as many nachos as you want, get full custody of your little girl and never speak to that lying b**** of a mother again.''

A third wrote: "I am so, so sorry this is happening to you. Lawyer up and cut them out of you and your daughter's life forever.
