A jilted mum says she’s been called ‘rude and unprofessional’ after refusing to make a gender reveal cake for her cheating ex-husband and his girlfriend.
The baker, who runs a baking company, admits she’s ‘incredibly bitter’ at her former partner, who cheated on her with his current girlfriend – while she was pregnant with twins.
“My ex-husband and I have one-year-old twins together and due to a lot of complications from that pregnancy I got a partial hysterectomy,” the 23-year-old mum explained on reddit.
“We divorced during my pregnancy after I discovered he cheated on me. He’s a good dad and his girlfriend is now pregnant. He cheated on me with his current girlfriend but she didn’t know he had a wife at the time, and I firmly believe that.”
‘My ex called me rude and unprofessional’
The mum says her business is ‘pretty successful’ and among baked goods and desserts, she also makes gender reveal cakes.
“My ex-husband’s girlfriend called me and asked if I would be willing to do a gender reveal cake for them and said it would mean a lot if ‘the mother of her baby’s siblings made the cake for the party’.”
After telling the mum-to-be that she’d think about it, she eventually told her she wouldn’t make the cake.
“I am admittedly incredibly bitter at my ex for cheating on me while I was bedridden and medically fragile being pregnant with his children, and I don’t want to be involved in the celebration of their new child. I did specify that it wasn’t her, but I couldn’t do it and she said alright and hung up.
“My ex then called me and told me I was being rude and unreasonable and completely unprofessional putting our issues before my business. I told him I was allowed to refuse service to anyone and hung up on him.
“I feel like I have let my feelings get in the way of my business and if I made the cake it’s not like I have to be there to celebrate. On the other hand, I do feel like I’m allowed to refuse business however I see fit.”
The mum now wants to know what others think about her decision.
