How My Lover’s Wife Became My Ally

Affairs are prevalent but rarely talked about relationships. The podcast, Cheating: When Love Lies, is a deep dive into the complex emotions surrounding these secret unions.
Creator and host, Jillian Hamilton, delves into this taboo topic and asks the hard questions about affairs: how common are they, who's having them, and why? These questions illicit unexpected answers that reveal both men and women as people actively seeking something - validation, escape, understanding, vengeance, thrill, love, sex, and romance - outside of marriage or committed partnerships. Cheating: When Love Lies resists the condemnation of affairs as uniquely wrong or bad and instead considers their usefulness in learning as much about relationships as we learn about our ourselves.
On the podcast, Jillian Hamilton narrates short fictional stories about cheating based on true life events. The narration is followed by a roundtable discussion with everyday people who share their unique perspectives. Jillian also interviews cheaters and betrayed partners. These interviews are raw and real-and at times maddening or heartbreaking.
Listen now to Cheating: When Love Lies. Are you ready for the truth?

My Wife Cheated On Me With A Homeless Man

Some still believe that a wife’s role is to stay at home with her children, tend to her family, and be devoted to her husband. In Western culture these ideas are currently part of the Trad Wife movement. Trad stands for traditional wife. 



On this episode I welcome international matchmaker Florent Raimy,  Founder of Edwige International. Florent’s matchmaking clients are wealthy men from all over the world who are seeking a traditional wife. So….how many of you are scratching your heads right now in disbelief that the traditional wife role still exists?

Let’s hear what my guest has to say. Let’s find out what high net worth men from all over the world are looking for in a wife. Not all wealthy men, but some-and most definitely Edwige International clients.  Is the Trad Wife a walk back into the fifties or a strut into the future?

A Renowned Matchmaker On Infidelity & What His Clients Won’t Tolerate

My guest Helen spent years facing down her own real life bunny boiler.
