WIBTA telling my ex husband’s fiancé he’s using the diamond from my ring from our marriage?
My ex-husband and I have been divorced for 2 years, separated for 4.
During mediation, he wanted the 2.5ct diamond back from the engagement/wedding ring he gave me.
I agreed.
We coparent our 2 kids relatively well, but overall, he terrifies me and can be vengeful.
This woman found out that her ex had proposed to his new girlfriend.
I hope he’s nice to whatever partner he’s with, and treats them better than he did me.
He recently got engaged to someone he’s only been dating for roughly 6 months.
The kids had no idea he was going to propose (they’ve been living together the past 3 months).
The way I found out was through the kids.
Whereas I prefer to give coparenting heads ups on things that would impact the kids.
Her daughter thought that the ring he had given to his fiancée looked a lot like the ring she had.
My daughter voluntarily said that the diamond looks a lot like mine (it did have distinct occlusions).
If I see his new fiancé and confirm that the diamond is my old one, part of me wants to be like:
“Dang, girl. He used the same diamond? You deserve better.”
But then again, it would be a bit petty and could stir some unwanted contention.
Now, she’s wondering if she should say something to his fiancée about this.
If I was in her shoes though, I would want to know.
My inclination is that he wouldn’t disclose that to her about the ring.
What would you do? If I said something, WIBTA?
