Ex-Wives Of Same Man Become BFFs, Co-Parent Together
Making a best friend is easy when you’re a kid on a playground, but as an adult? It can be a little more challenging. But for one woman, becoming besties was simple, even if their relationship history wasn’t. And that’s because Jessi’s BFF is her ex-husband’s ex-wife.
TikTokers @jessicamichelle1993 and @lureewest were both previously married to the same man (not at the same time, of course). They became close after eight years of being mom and stepmom – and when the dude they had in common walked out on Jessi and her kids last year? She and Lureewest moved in together with their eight kids, five of whom share the same dad. And now that he’s out of the picture, they’re raising the kids all together. “When you become besties with the other baby mama instead of hating each other,” she writes in one video. “Co-parenting win!”
Sure, it’s an unlikely arrangement, but it’s working for these single moms and their kiddos. Jessi explains that she first met her stepsons when they were just two, three and four-years old and she spent eight years being their other mom when she was married to their dad. Just because she’s no longer technically their stepmom, she’s still helping to raise them with their mom and says, “They’re stuck with me.” So now they’re one big, blended family and they couldn’t be happier. Jessi jokes of her ex, “He created a family, he’s just not in it.”
