Why does it seem like there are more cheaters in Hollywood than stanky towels at your gym?
In the past few months alone, Tristan Thompson cheated on a very pregnant Khloe Kardashian, Scott Disick was seen cozying up to a woman who was definitely not his girlfriend, and Donald Trump Jr. and his wife Vanessa announced they were separating after he allegedly cheated on her with Aubrey O’Day. And, it’s worth pointing out, those are just the ones who got caught.
It’s hard for any outsider to say if a celebrity should ditch their cheating partner or go full Beyonce and stay. Still, it's kind of entertaining to imagine what you would do...
