A woman in China called her 'missing' boyfriend a 'cheating b*****d' when she found out he was married with kids in Norwich.
Rachel Waters, who was born in the US and is now 26, started a desperate search for Paul Magee when he didn't come back from a trip to the city of Norfolk.
She asked for help on a Norwich community Facebook page, saying that Paul, who was 40, had gone to see his hometown but "was supposed to be back by now."
In a shocking turn of events, the brand manager got a lot of answers, including one from a friend of Paul's UK partner who said, "He has a wife and kids.
Rachel, who plays volleyball professionally, has since told MailOnline that her situation is "unfortunate," but she seemed ready to move on.
She posted on Facebook, "Yes, I've read the article... #CheatingB*****d.”
Friends said that Paul was working in Shenzhen, China, when he got stuck there because of the pandemic and began dating Rachel.
She was born in South Carolina, but she went to college in Britain.
Rachel put a picture of them in China on the Norwich community notice board at least six weeks after he got back to the UK.
She wrote: “I have an unusual ask. My boyfriend, Paul Magee, and I live in Shenzhen, China.
“He went home (Norwich) at the beginning of April to visit and was supposed to be back in China by now.
“However, I have not heard from him recently and am worried something might have happened. If anyone knows of anything, please reach out to me.”
A Norwich friend of Paul’s partner replied: “Not really funny is it.
“He has a Mrs and children and I really feel for her right now!
“And another girlfriend in China it seems.”
She added: “Not funny for her in the slightest.”
An apparently heartbroken Rachel then removed her original post.
A pal told The Sun: “Paul and his partner didn’t see each other for two years.
“He recently returned, and they sort of got back together. They have been separated and got children. They’ve thought, ‘Let’s give it another go’.”
They said there was no overlap between the relationships.
Paul's mom said that she knew about all of the posts, but she didn't want to say anything else.
The Sun tried to reach Rachel, but she did not answer.
