Man Suing Apple For $6M After His Wife Found His Deleted Texts With Sex Workers

Man Plans To Sue Apple For $6M After His Wife Found His Deleted Text Messages With Sex Workers

A British man is going viral after planning to sue Apple, and blaming them for his divorce after his wife found his deleted texts with sex workers.

The unidentified man claims he deleted the messages off of his phone, but his wife was still able to retrieve them on the family iMac.

The man says his wife’s discovery of his secret doings led to his divorce. He blames Apple for not making it clear that deleting messages on one device doesn’t delete them on all devices.

“If you are told a message is deleted, you are entitled to believe it’s deleted,” the man said in a statement to the Times. “My thoughts are if I had been able to talk to her rationally and she had not had such a brutal realisation of it, I might still be married,” he added.

The anonymous man admits to contacting sex workers via iPhone while married but still blames Apple for the split with his ex. According to him, he loss $6M between his divorce and wants the tech company to pay up.

“In my opinion it’s all because Apple told me my messages were deleted when they weren’t,” he said.

“If the message had said, ‘These messages are deleted on this device’, that would have been a clue, or ‘These messages are deleted on this device only’ that would have been even better,” the man added.

Netizens have since been reacting to the news. “Lack of accountability is so contagious these days Smh,” someone commented. “Nothing can be hid from women they define all odds once their intuition kick in . They won’t and don’t stop until they find something,” another person wrote.
