I made a shocking discovery about my boyfriend after his death that turned my whole world upside down
Imagine being with someone for years and thinking you know every intimate detail about them... only to find out after their death that they hid a dark secret from you. That was the case for one woman, 24, who spoke exclusively to about how she made a shocking discovery about her boyfriend after his passing that turned her whole world upside down. The woman asked to keep her identity private so she will be referred to as the pseudonym Kate throughout the story. Kate explained that she met her boyfriend through a website for furries: enthusiasts for humans who dress up like animals. They became close immediately, bonding over their shared love of the phenomenon, which has grown in popularity in recent years. They were friends for three years before they started dating in 2021, and Kate believed she had found her soulmate. But their happy love story was sadly cut short when he was diagnosed with a terminal disease a year into their romance. And after nearly two years of battling the illness, he recently passed away. Following his tragic death, Kate began clearing out his old devices... when she came across something devastating on his laptop. It turns out, the man she had loved had a secret and disturbing fascination that went way beyond their innocent involvement in the furry fandom. She found tons of saved pages containing zoophile material, which is a term used to describe a person who is sexually attracted to animals. While she didn't divulge any more information on the content she saw, she admitted that it left her pretty shaken up. While chatting with about the horrific discovery, Kate said she's trying not to let it 'get in the way of her mourning.' She explained that she has no plans to tell anyone else about what she found because she doesn't want to 'damage' his legacy. 'Even though he has passed it would still be a betrayal of his trust,' she said. 'Whether right or wrong, him watching the material has never hurt anyone. 'It would be damaging to both him and me to reveal such a thing too since some people would probably think I'm lying when I have no reason to.' She said she believes her late boyfriend wasn't a longtime zoophile, and theorized that he looked at the material because he knew he was dying. 'There was no signs or anything [before], that's why I think it was more like, "I'm doomed anyway so let's check this thing out,"' she said. Kate also spoke about the ordeal on Reddit, admitting in an unflinchingly honest post, 'I don't even know how to feel about it. 'I can't feel mad about it. I'm too emotionally exhausted from everything, from his passing to all the arrangements that have to be made to feel anything,' she added. 'This is the person who was most important to me, gave me unconditional love, and who I helped to keep alive through my own care throughout last year and a bit beyond. It's more just a bit of a shock. 'You think you know someone inside and out but there is always something that ends up ready to surprise you.'

Senior Tory embroiled in 'furry' sex scandal... after accidentally sending photograph of himself dressed as a dog into a work WhatsApp group
A senior Tory has been embroiled in a 'furry' sex scandal after a texting blunder. The politician accidentally sent a photograph of himself dressed as a dog being led on a leash to a group of colleagues on WhatsApp. The photograph appeared to reveal he is a 'furry'—someone who enjoys dressing up as an animal as a sexual preference. Two sources familiar with the breach described the photograph to The Mail on Sunday and said it was quickly deleted. The WhatsApp group was full of fellow Conservatives and used for work. One said they were 'shocked' by the blunder, which occurred at the end of last year. 'The assessment came that he is a furry. It was assumed he did this as a hobby rather than for innocent fun.' Another source said: 'I had to explain [to one of the recipients] what a furry was.' The politician, whom this newspaper has chosen not to name, has been involved with campaigning for the party at a senior level during the recent local elections and last year's general election, and has rubbed shoulders with senior members of the Shadow Cabinet. It is the latest communications blunder to have hit the Conservative Party in recent months. Last month The Mail on Sunday revealed secret Tory documents ended up in Labour hands after accidentally being emailed to a researcher with the same name as an aide to Kemi Badenoch. The documents included strategic planning by Mrs Badenoch's inner circle, and the mistake occurred because a Commons researcher was cc-ed on an email chain instead of the Tory official. And Tory justice spokesman Robert Jenrick recently suffered his own messaging gaffe when his team added 600 people – including dozens of journalists – to a WhatsApp group about his plan to run a marathon. It led to jokes that Mr Jenrick was 'running' for leader again, having come second to Mrs Badenoch in last year's leadership race.
