My husband made a sneaky move before travelling abroad – I discovered it in my car, people call it ‘appalling behaviour’
A WOMAN revealed the shocking discovery she made while her husband was travelling abroad.
She came across an item in her car that made her realise her partner's sneaky move.
In a on Mumsnet, the unnamed user recounted how a notification on her phone made her realise that her husband was spying on her.
"My husband has gone abroad for three weeks for his brother's wedding and left me at home with the kids, our youngest is only 13-weeks-old," she explained.
A few days into her husband's trip, the woman returned home from school drop-off when she received a tracker alert on her phone.
"[It said] an AirTag tracker has been detected and it showed me every where I had been that morning on the map," she said.

The woman described how she felt "very confused" by the alert since she hadn't been using an AirTag.
However, she did recall her husband recently purchasing some of the Apple products before his trip.
"I didn't know what an Apple AirTag was up until a few days ago, when my husband bought some to put in his suitcases before travelling," she explained.
She came to the conclusion that he must have placed one of them in her car before leaving.

"I know it is 100% in my car, one because it showed everywhere I'd been that morning, and when I pressed 'play sound' I could hear it beeping inside the back of my car," she said.
"He's obviously hidden in it the day before he travelled when he went to fill my car up with petrol before he left."
The mum said she was "upset" over the fact that her husband didn't disclose this information with her.
"Surely if it was for safety with him being away from home he would have told me before putting it in there?" she pointed out.
"He doesn't know I know, I'm pretty sure he also doesn't know that my phone would detect it and give me an alert.
"I'm really upset about it all knowing he's hid a tracker in the back of my car."
Mumsnet users shared their thoughts on the situation in the comments section.
How do AirTags work?
Apple designed the product to work as a key finder, helping customers locate their personal items.
AirTags use Bluetooth to connect to nearby devices using Apple's Find My network.
This transmits the AirTag's location to iCloud and it is then displayed on a map in the Find My app.
If you know the AirTag is somewhere nearby but can't find it, you can use the app to make it beep.
"I’d have some fun with it, teach him a lesson. Appalling behaviour from him," wrote one reader.
"Put it on a bus and let him wonder," suggested another commenter.
"You're right, if it was for safety he would have asked if you were interested in one," said a third person.

"It's not normal to secretly track and trace your partner. He doesn't trust you for whatever reason."
"I would be livid, and looking to get legal advice," commented another Mumsnet user.
