Amy Taylor and David Pollard are ending their marriage after 3 years when Amy found David's avatar in Second Life literally "screwing around" online.
The couple met online in 2003 and, within months, she had moved into 40-year-old Mr Pollard's flat in Newquay, Cornwall.
After two years, the pair married – in real life and in the game – but Ms Taylor said she knew something was wrong. She ended up hiring a "virtual private detective" to scope out David's activities online.
Apparently her instincts were right. David had begged for Amy's forgiveness after the first affair unfolded.
However, it wasn't until she filed for divorce after witnessing her husband's avatar banging some new chick that went by the name: Modesty McDonnell.
"I caught him cuddling a woman on a sofa in the game. It looked really affectionate," said Ms. Taylor, who filed for divorce the next day. "I just couldn't believe what he'd done," said Ms Taylor, 28. "I looked at the screen and saw his character having sex. It's cheating, as far as I'm concerned."
Ms. Taylor apparently already has a new guy now that she met in a different game... You guessed it World of Warcraft.
