JASON HEWLETT IS an American singer and entertainer.
He has about 13,000 fans on his Facebook page – but a post he just put up about his wife has gone super, mega viral overnight.
He uploaded this picture of him out shopping and it’s been shared over 150,000 times. Why? Well, it’s his wife ahead of him in the queue – but he didn’t realise she was in the shop that day.
He explains:
Kind of embarrassed to admit this, but I think I sort of cheated on my wife today. To explain what I mean, I was at Target getting a few manly things, you know – eyebrow tweezers, toenail clippers, beard trimmers, mustache molding waxes, some beef jerky, sardines, trail mix, a loofah – and as I went to pay I saw this woman in line that knocked me out. I thought, ‘Wow, some lucky guy is with her’, and in a split second I realized it was my wife!
He continued:
First off, I was taken aback by how amazingly beautiful she is once again. I believe I see it often, but today, not knowing she was at the store, I saw her with new eyes and just couldn’t believe I get to be her fella. It made me blush — but no one could see it under my huge monster Movember beard. Second, it amazed me that she didn’t notice me in the slightest. This is both a good and a bad thing. Good in that she doesn’t have a wandering eye. Good in that she didn’t see the creepy dude with the overgrown mink on his face peering over her shoulder. But maybe that’s bad, too, like what if it hadn’t been me? I need to get her another can of mace just in case. But it was also bad because I realized how close I came to not ever winning her love in the first place, and the herculean efforts I had to make all those years ago to even get her attention just to say yes to one date!
He signed off with one final thought:
Lesson of the Day: It’s good to look at those we love with fresh eyes whenever we can to remind us how lucky we are to have their light in our lives.
People have certainly fallen in love with this couple and Jason’s wandering eye.

Christ, my skins crawling after reading that.
The “love both” people will be delighted that she gave birth at age 10.
@Baltimore Lass: Here is a disgusting statistic from India ; A child under 10 is raped every 13 hours..
@Baltimore Lass: A cruel comment, nobody irrespective of their position would hold with the rape and resulting pregnancy of a young child, there are two child victims of this horror and whether it was a family member or other, someone is clearly abusing this little girl, all right thinking people would want such criminals apprehended and incarcerated, point scoring over this child’s suffering is in bad taste.
@Honeybee: Don’t be daft.You have so called “pro life” human rights activists in this country,who would fight tooth and nail for that 10 year old,to be forced to give birth…Baltimore Lass is spot on!
@Gerri Sant0r0: Baltimore lass stated people would be ‘delighted’ to see a ten year old give birth, really, you think anyone would be ‘delighted’ at such trauma and abuse?
@Honeybee :Where have you been hiding ? Didn’t you know that once that 10 year old child became pregnant,then she must give birth,according to those that ‘love both’? Marion ,where are you?
@Francis Mc Carthy: Typical of the pro choice side scoring points from a tragedy. Of the c.200000 abortions carried out in GB last year, how many were due to rape and incest? Carry-on making political football out these awful tragedies and show people how really hypocritical the pro choice side is. No ProLife person sees anything here to be celebrated.
Daniel : Do you believe that that 10 year old child should have a choice of ending that pregnancy in Ireland ?
@Daniel Dunne: And to answer your question,I will never know how many were for rape/incest,and the reason for this,is that rape is under-reported.And your lot are not “pro life” ..Your lot are ‘pro-mental torture’ ‘pro forced birth’ ‘pro death’ ..Away with yah.
@Daniel Dunne: They celebrated the incarceration, force feeding and forced caesarian of a rape victim as a “positive outcome”,
If a 10 year old Irish girl was pregnant, the 8th amendment would force her to give birth. A blunt instrument that tortures women and girls in this country if they can’t afford to travel.
India is a medieval society.
@Emmet Dillane: and Ireland is not
@Emmet Dillane: India would have allowed an abortion up to 20 weeks. Ireland, under the 8th amendment would have forced this child to give birth regardless.
It gets sicker and sicker. This little girl is going to need a lot of help and support. And the men who raped her need to be punished and then a lot more punishment.
That poor little girl … heart goes out to the child
To attempt to fathom the depth of trauma this little girl has gone through is horrifying. I truly hope she is receives the psychological support she will need.
Cases like these highlight the necessity in stengthening the global campaign against all forms of sexual violence.
“DNA results have led to suspicions that she may have been abused by others”. Looks like Sherlock is on the case.
India really have some the brightest people on this planet but then you hear these stories and think they have also the worst type of people on the planet and a crazy functioning society.
I seem to remember after the whole Savita Halipanavaar story that there were a lot of guest commentators from India in the liberal faction of the Irish media slating Irish healthcare, attitudes and law. We were supposed to be a backward society according to them and yet this kind of thing happens in their backyard all the time with no sign of them now and their ironic comments. It’s only a few months ago that rats got into a baby ward in a hospital in India and ate the face of a new born baby.
