Summary
In this jaw-dropping episode of The Dating Detectives, we meet Jade, a 30-year-old single mom whose world was upended when her wife began an affair with someone no one ever expects. What starts as a postpartum support system turns into a shocking betrayal involving romantic manipulation, medical ethics violations, and a devastating unraveling of Jade’s family. As Jade bravely shares her story, we explore the power dynamics between patients and doctors, the red flags of love bombing, and how postpartum vulnerability can be exploited. This episode is a raw, emotional, and ultimately empowering look at what happens when the people you rely on most turn out to be the ones you need to heal from.
