I exposed my cheating ex in the most deadly way at his job — women say it's ‘10/10′ revenge
R.I.P. to you and me, buddy!
With her deepest condolences, a scorned siren dumped her cheating Prince Charming in true femme fatale style.
'I was in bed lying next to him when I saw I had a new message request from a girl who he'd been messaging,' Melissa Viegas, 23, from Manchester, told Kennedy News, adding that her now ex-boyfriend's other love interest shared screenshot evidence of his 'sexting' sins.
4 Viegas virally revealed the clever way she dumped and embarrassed her ex after finding out he'd be sending sexually-charged text messages to other women.

'So I ended up cutting them out and putting them in a 'Sorry for your loss' card,' said Viegas, a master's student and bartender. 'I showed up to his work and gave him the card. He opened it, stared at it a while.'
'He was clearly embarrassed.'
Footage of the genius Gen Z's 'perfectly executed' gotcha has racked up over 1.2 million TikTok views from fans — mostly women — of the savage stunt.
It was a masterful move Viegas spent a week devising.
'It really was hard not saying anything,' admitted the brunette, who met her ex, whose name has been withheld for privacy, via Instagram two years ago.
But immediately prior to learning of his two-timing tendencies, Viegas had a sinking feeling her sweetheart was up to no good.
'I had a lot of suspicions but I didn't have any hard proof that he was cheating,' she said. 'Because there were so many suspicions, I was already thinking about leaving. I knew I deserved better.'
And once she peeped at her honey's flirty texts with his would-be mistress, that was the final nail in the coffin.
4 Viegas was shocked upon receiving a direct message from the woman who her boyfriend had secretly been texting.

'He told her that he didn't have social media but she didn't believe him,' said Viegas. 'She did some digging and eventually found my profile and felt terrible.'
The screenshot visuals of their tongue-in-cheek tête-à-tête left Viegas feeling furious.
'He tries to plan to see her multiple times,' she said of the devastating discovery. 'He was really full-on sexting. It really scarred me. It was horrible, especially seeing him call her the pet names he calls me.'
But after the initial sting wore off, the wheels of revenge in Viegas' head began turning. And her plan to publicly humiliate the double-crossing dope went off without a hitch.
4 The student says she wanted to 'shame' her ex with the sympathy card stunt due to his distasteful behavior.
Kennedy News and Media
'He was offended I had done it at his work,' she said of her sympathy card delivery. 'My friend grabbed my hand and said, 'let's just go.''
Viegas, however, doesn't regret getting his goat.
Viegas posted about her scheme in a TikTok video — which now has over 1 million views.
'I just thought, 'I'm going to make a video,' because he was so shameless,' the pinup said with pride. 'He knew I was suspicious and asking questions, and he made me feel guilty about bringing up him cheating.'
'I thought he needed to learn some shame,' she continued, grateful for the wave of unwavering support she's received from ladies online.
'Perfectly executed from start to finish,' raved a commenter on TikTok. 'I feel like I should stand up and applaud girl.'
'No notes. Both girls get a 10/10,' another cheered.
'I've never been more proud of a girl I don't know,' an equally impressed onlooker declared.
The virtual adulation has taken Viegas by surprise.
'I had never realized how strong girl power could be,' she chimed. 'The only hate comments were from men.'
And her ex-man is now speaking out in his own defense.
4 Viegas' ex claims that the alleged sext message incident does not reflect his character.
Kennedy News and Media
'The claims in Melissa's viral TikTok don't reflect who I am,' the unnamed guy wrote in a statement, per Kennedy News. 'I deeply regret any hurt she felt during our relationship and breakup, and I take responsibility for engaging in some inappropriate messages that crossed a line.'
'That was a mistake,' he confessed, 'not a reflection of my character, and I'm committed to learning from it.'
'Breakups are tough and I understand emotions can run high online,' said the wannabe playboy. 'I'm not here to add to the noise or point fingers — I'm focused on moving forward with integrity and privately.'
'I wish Melissa nothing but the best.'
Viegas, however, seems to doubt his sincerity.
Beneath her viral vid, she gave followers an update, which read, 'Two other girls have reached out to me, apparently he had a date planned for next week! Guessing he's now getting stood up.'
And he messaged one of my friends, 'I was gonna break up with her anyway,'' Viegas added. 'So congrats everyone, you crushed his ego! We literally booked a holiday two weeks ago for [the] end of August, so there's no way he was planning for that.'

Olivia Culpo Says Husband Christian McCaffrey Will Be Hiding If She's Matching Their Baby
A 'very pregnant' Olivia Culpo is sharing how she's preparing to welcome her first child with husband Christian McCaffrey into the world. As she anxiously awaits the end of her third trimester, Culpo, who announced her pregnancy in March took to TikTok on Friday, June 6, to share some of her baby must-haves with other soon-to-be moms. From her favorite style of onesies to her stroller and the highchair she grabbed, purely for "esthetic" reasons, Culpo, 33, seemingly has everything she needs for her little one's arrival. 'Everything that I have for my baby, is green or beige,' Culpo, who still hasn't publicly shared the sex of her unborn child yet, explained. As she showed off the gender-neutral 'Little Sleepies' onesies she purchased, she also shared how excited she is to match with her little one while holding up the matching robe she got for herself. 'You can match with your baby,' Culpo continued, admitting she's 'a sucker for that.' Olivia Culpo Shares New Bump Pic 1 Week After Announcing Pregnancy 'I will be matching with my child, girl or boy,' the excited mom-to-be said. 'If you ever see all three of us matching, me, Oliver, and my baby, there's a chance Christian's hiding somewhere in the background, also matching.' Culpo admitted that she was 'stuck' and 'about to cry' while initially filling out her baby registry, before she used other moms' BabyList registries as 'a resource.' 'It helped take out so much of the guess work,' the new mom shared. 'You can list, categorize, figure out what you're missing and need to supplement. It really brought me peace knowing that I could use other people's suggestions as a guideline so if you feel stuck, and you are about to cry the way that I was, take my registry, and just copy it.' Sophia Culpo Pokes Fun at Olivia Culpo Using Her Dog to Hide Her Baby Bump In the comment section, Culpo's mother-in-law sent a message of encouragement and thanks. 'Can't wait! Love you. You are doing great,' Lisa McCaffrey wrote. 'Thanks for carrying my grandchild!' And other moms shared their own suggestions and praised Culpo for not finding out the sex of their unborn child, calling it 'the best surprise in the world.' In a video from her baby shower, Culpo, Christian, and other members of their family shared their guesses. 'I am your mom, and I have no idea who you are. I thought you were a boy. Now everyone says you're a girl. So I think you're a girl, but watch you be a boy.'

Caitlin Clark, Lexie Hull's Priceless Exchange Before Chicago Sky Game
Caitlin Clark, Lexie Hull's Priceless Exchange Before Chicago Sky Game originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Indiana Fever are on their way to Chicago to play against the Chicago Sky on Saturday at the United Center. Advertisement On Friday evening, the Fever's official Instagram account shared a reel showing players walking to the team's coach bus while answering a fun question: which teammate would they want to sit next to for the three-hour road trip from Indianapolis to Chicago? The video ended with answers from guards Lexie Hull and Caitlin Clark, who walked to the bus together. "Obviously..." Clark said with a smile while putting her arm around Hull's shoulder. Hull laughed and smiled, then said "awwww" in response. "Easy answer," the Iowa alum added. "We're obviously about to go sit right next to each other." Hull commented on the reel minutes after it was posted, "bestie!!! @caitlinclark22," and Clark responded twenty minutes later with "@lexiehulll 🩷we actually love each other everyone."
