" wow. jerry show is right. as in any situation i know you want to say something. But realize if you do it makes you look like the bad guy for breaking the news and really puts you in the middle of the drama. i had a situation where i was real good friend with both husband and wife. and i knew she was cheating on him and couldn't betray that friendship...but couldn't tell him for fear of him being nervous before he deployed and it turned out in the end..i kept my mouth shut the whole time. the truth came out when she was ready to be honest. and her husband actually appreciated me not telling him and said it wasn't really my place. it also kept me more on the outside of the drama as well. i would suggest not being as close with her but keep formalities due to ties. Other than that she will eventually come clean if she has a conscience. And maybe you could even talk to her and let her know that you don't feel like what she did was right. and maybe even ask her if she could come clean with it. I understand your trying to protect both your son and daughter in law...but if he is doing that then maybe they need to know this to either strengthen their marriage or break it off if it cannot be resolved or overcome.

" Good for your son she let you down a little but things happen it is not the end of the world just be thankful he never slept with her husband>

It is passed and just encourage him to wear protection either a space suit or a raincoat in this day and age> "
