Woman Says Her Husband Has a Work Wife Who Looks Like Sydney Sweeney. Then She Wanted to Get Him Fired

Did she intervene at the right time?

What happens at work doesn’t always stay at work, and Vada’s (@thespicytalez) story proves that. Vada took to TikTok to share her shock with the internet after learning her husband had a “work wife.” 

Vada said, “I just found out that I have no other option but to get my husband fired from his job today because it has come to my attention that he has a work wife.” Vada also said that in the workspace, her husband’s “work wife” has allegedly been referring to her as his “outside wife”.

In an encounter she deemed the “first red flag”, she said, “I showed up today, and she said, ‘Oh my god, you’re his outside wife? It’s so nice to finally meet you, outside wife? Outside wife? Who the f*** are you? That’s my emotional support idiot.” She continued, “She dead ass has the audacity to introduce herself, say her name, and say that she’s his work wife. His work wife? Excuse me, why are we assigning spouses at work?”

“Leave your husband”

Vada also revealed that she apparently told her not to worry because she only borrows him “during business hours.” “Borrow him? Borrow him? Borrow him for what? I’m pretty sure he signs your paychecks, ma’am,” Vada said, before expressing her disapproval, saying, “Uh huh.”

As their conversation went on, the “work wife” apparently asked Vada’s husband if his hall pass was Sydney Sweeney. Vada said in the video that she thinks the “work wife” secretly hoped that it was Sweeney because she somewhat looked like her. Vada said, “She’s blonde and busty. Like, she kinda looks like her. I think she’s hoping his hall pass is Sydney.”

Vada also said that the woman told her she packed extra snacks for the husband for when his mood gets off. “She says, don’t worry, I pack extra snacks and bring them to work in case he gets a little cranky,” Vada said before adding, “He does. But why the hell do you know that?”

She said the woman told her she could tell when Vada and her husband fought because Vada doesn’t pack his lunch. “You sure do know a lot about my husband. Uh, did he tell you that his wife bites?” Vada said, revealing her secret plan to get back at the woman.

Vada also said her husband told her that her reaction to whatever was happening was “dramatic,” which is exactly how this woman described her experience with her high school boyfriend. He also purportedly told Vada that “there’s nothing going on” and that the woman was “just young and she’s silly,” suggesting not to take what she said seriously.

The video has gained significant traction, with more than 800K views. It has also received thousands of comments, with a few people hinting at the husband being the problem. One user wrote, “This is the husband’s job to handle. If he can’t handle it, leave your husband.” Another user said, “no. if he ever said I’m overreacting and he doesn’t even try to stop it I would divorce him. I don’t care what anyone says.”

A few others were urging Vada to take action against the woman. One user commented, saying, “go straight to his HR department and report her.” Another user remarked, “CLAIM YOUR TERRITORY DON’T LET THAT SH** SLIDE I’m officially invested please update.”

In a later video, Vada said when she called her husband at work, his “work wife” refused to give him the phone. Then, taking matters into her own hands, Vada said she went into his office wearing a “tiny little dress,” took tiny “spicy cubes,” and brought her “do not disturb” sign. 

Vada said that when she told her husband she couldn’t reach him, he got angry at the “work wife”. Vada’s story ends with the revelation that the woman left the building.
