A 24-year-old pregnant mom claims she was shocked to find out that her boyfriend and baby daddy was having an affair with her own mother.
Jess Aldridge told the Sun that her boyfriend, Ryan Shelton, ran off with her mom, Georgina, after she brought her newborn son home from the hospital.
“It’s the ultimate betrayal. You expect a new grandmother to fall in love with the baby — not the father,” Aldridge told the outlet.
The Gloucestershire, England-based family were living together so Georgina could help take care of her grandchildren. Aldridge and Shelton have two children together, a daughter, also named Georgina, 1, and newborn son Reuben.
“We were stuck together for months in the house during lockdown,” Aldridge recalled. “It was so hard, especially as Ryan and Mum were always being so flirty. I felt so uncomfortable, it was a horrible experience.”
Even though Georgina’s husband, Eric, was also in the house, Shelton, 29, and Georgina, 44, would spend nights in the kitchen together drinking Bacardi. Aldridge claims she once caught Shelton touching her mom’s butt, but he tried to brush it off. “It was disgusting. She would wear these short dresses and be all touchy-feely with him on the sofa,” she said. Aldridge claims she even confronted the pair — although they denied anything was going on.
That changed when Aldridge was admitted to the hospital to give birth to Reuben in January. While she was having a Caesarean section, Shelton, a car parts salesman, broke up with Aldridge via text, claiming he was sick of her accusing him of having an affair.
“Ryan had seen baby Reuben for only a few minutes after he was born and then 10 minutes the day afterwards as he was moving all his stuff,” the new mom said. “They were in such a rush. He had even had my mum waiting for him with the car packed in the car park.”
When Aldridge returned home with her new son, she realized Georgina, a nursing home worker, had also moved out. Although they continued to deny it, the couple finally fessed up that they were living together.
The unusual new couple have now reportedly officially confirmed their relationship on Facebook.
“My mum told me she can’t help who she falls in love with, and Ryan told me the same thing,” Aldridge said. “It was a huge kick in the teeth, they had been planning it throughout my whole pregnancy.”
She said Eric is also devastated by the news.
“She is meant to be a granny to my two children and helping me look after them, but instead, she’s off shagging my boyfriend,” said Aldridge.
