The internet has rallied around a 53-year-old woman who shared the backlash to her personal transformation after her marriage ended, in which her children accused her of being selfish and lazy “when it mattered.”
In the post, the woman—who goes by ThatPeach7311—explained to users of popular Reddit forum “AITAH” that she’s been divorced for six years from “Larry,” who cheated on her after a career change. The pair had met as electrical engineering students at college and married shortly after graduation.
For the first decade of their marriage, she believed they were happy. However, things changed dramatically when Larry began attending law school. He underwent what his now ex-wife called a “major glow up,” investing in tailored clothes, fancy haircuts and designer accessories and started working out to transform his “dad bod.”
