‘AND ON THEIR HONEYMOON?!?!’: Hawaii woman befriends ‘single’ man on Call of Duty mobile. Then his wife calls her 3 years into their friendship
A woman spent an extended period of time with a man she played Call of Duty with, without realizing he was married. In a four-part series with more than 314,000 views, a Hawaii woman discussed the horrifying experience she had when her male best friend on Call of Duty confessed his love for her on his honeymoon.
What happened on this Call of Duty clan?
Clarice (@clairecees) explained that in 2019, when Call of Duty Mobile dropped, she met a group of British and Canadian players that she would play with. Eventually, the group formed a Discord, and she started developing connections with some of the players. She started playing with a mystery man, “B,” more than anyone else.
“We FaceTimed all the time. I met his best friend, I met his sister. He showed me his apartment, his life in Canada,” she added in the first part of her video. They had been friends for three and a half years before she met him in person.
Clarice moved to Hawaii from California in March 2022. She eventually got a message from the player that he was planning to visit her in July. He explained that he would be having a “family reunion” in the state and asked that she pick him up from the airport.
She did, and they spent almost every day together. Clarice would drive an hour to get him and then hang out with him around the island and show him her favorite spots. She let him meet her child, and it was as “chill as [she] could have imagined.”
Toward the end of their visit, the man gave her $300 to $400 to pay for gas.
But that’s when the trouble started.
She gets a phone call
The next day, Clarice received an email asking, “Why is my husband sending you money?” Clarice was completely flabbergasted by the email and started to communicate with the woman, whom she did not know. B had told Clarice that he had been single for 10 years, so Clarice didn’t even know the other woman existed. She had no reason to believe otherwise. He had multiple long-distance “situationships” with women over the course of those 10 years, dating people from their Call of Duty group.
B’s wife and Clarice had a call after that point where they sorted out more details.
B’s wife explained, “We’ve been together for 10 years… We were in Hawaii for our honeymoon,” not for a family reunion.
B had told his wife about Clarice, but had not told Clarice about his wife. According to the wife, she had asked B why she couldn’t visit Clarice, but B had refused to answer.
Apparently, B purposefully picked fights with his wife during their honeymoon as a way of visiting with Clarice, leaving her multiple days in a row to spend hours with her.
The wife decided to confront B then and there, asking Clarice to stay on the phone with her so “he couldn’t lie.”
That’s when it got deeper. “She calls him and says, ‘Clarice is on the phone,’” Clarice said. “I hear him freak out. She says, ‘Do you love her?’ And he says, ‘Yes, I’m in love with her. I’m in love with you, Clarice. I’m so [expletive] up.’”
She blocks them all
Clarice blocked everyone involved in the incident, deleted Discord, and deleted Call of Duty Mobile from her device. She had told his wife that she could reach out if she needed anything, and she did.
“After that phone call that night, [his wife] reached out to me again: ‘I’m sorry. I had a major mental breakdown today.’” She apparently said, “‘He is very upset with me and very suicidal. He really values your friendship. This was all my fault. Please forgive him.’”
Clarice clarified to her audience, “Yes, we were just friends. No romantic interest, no sexual tension. I literally thought he was my brother.”
Clarice no longer plays Call of Duty Mobile to this day.

One more reach out
To wrap everything up, Clarice clarified the final time that he reached out to her. She said she knew that he had mental health issues, but that she didn’t pity him for the events that occurred.
“I received a message on TikTok from him [in October 2023]. He apologized, said he misses our friendship. I blocked him immediately,” she said. “[His wife] then messaged me on TikTok asking why he contacted me. I told her, and we had a small conversation. That’s been it since.”
Clarice wondered why he didn’t just mention that he was married. “He was lying not only to me, but to our clan, and to the girls he was meeting on Call of Duty. He had this fake life he wished was his life.”
Some people wondered whether he specifically went to Hawaii to meet her. Others were baffled that he had the audacity to leave his new wife on her honeymoon to begin with. The truth is, there may never be an answer to that question.

Update Oct. 1, 2025:
In a comment to The Mary Sue’s request, Clarice added some additional context to the story.
“Looking back, there were definitely some things that were clearly lies,” she said. “I never in my wildest dreams would I have thought he had a partner. He would FaceTime in his apartment with his friends and family. He was constantly out with his friends, at all points throughout the day and night, so it just seemed like he was always lonely or with his best friend.”
As for how she felt, she said she was “gross, confused and betrayed.”
“I felt gross because I had this poor woman crying to me, asking why I ruined their honeymoon,” she said. “I felt gross for every time I thought he was a good guy. I was confused because [of] all that, and lastly I felt betrayed because there wasn’t anything he didn’t know about me. We shared a very serious childhood trauma, and I felt like I had finally found a friend that [could] understand my mental health.”
She added that the experience left her skeptical of online relationships. “I’ve steered clear from those,” she said. “I’ve recently downloaded Hinge, and I just can’t help but think all these guys are liars.”
