A midwife who helped deliver a couple’s first baby had an affair with the father a few months later.
Rebecca Lewis, 34, began the affair with Ian Malin after the three became Facebook friends following the birth of his son Jacob.
And when the child was five months old, Mr Malin walked out on his wife, Sarah, 33, on Mother’s Day – after she confronted him over a suspicious text message on his phone.
Miss Lewis, a mother of three, is understood to have been given a dressing down by hospital managers after Mrs Malin made an official complaint.
She could now face an investigation by the nursing watchdog.
Yesterday Mrs Malin, a youth support worker from Pontardawe, South Wales, confirmed the split.
A friend said it was only a few weeks ago that Mrs Malin learned of the full extent of her husband’s betrayal, when she realised texts on her husband’s phone came from the same number she had stored for Miss Lewis in her phone.
She told the friend: ‘How could anyone help deliver another woman’s baby, then go off with her husband? Of all the women Ian could have fallen for, this has to be the sickest choice. It’s horrific – like something out of the movie Fatal Attraction.’
