"Men don't embarrass women. They stay even after a man shows who he is because they're scared another female will have him 🤷♂️ Same way dudes will wife up the local bicycle and get played and then call "all" females when he knows exactly what he chose. People make excuses!"

Briefly News spoke to Shelley Lewin - The Relationship Architect, author of Uncomplicated Love, and founder of The Relationship Architect Coaching and Education about how couples in the public eye can deal with cheating allegations whether true or false. She said:
"Navigating public scrutiny requires unity and discretion. In my experience, as shared in Uncomplicated Love, it’s important for the couple to first align privately—discussing the allegations candidly and honestly with each other.
"Public responses should reflect a united front, focusing on protecting each other’s dignity. Whether the allegations are true or false, it is crucial to maintain healthy boundaries with external influences and not let public opinion dictate the course of the relationship."
