A healthy relationship requires great communication and honesty. An unhealthy one requires excellent internet detective skills. One TikTok user, who goes by @akkayyyaa, found this out the hard way when she discovered her boyfriend was cheating on her through his and his ex’s Instagram posts.
This keyboard detective had her suspicions already. The posts were the straw that broke the camel’s back. It all centers around a white bucket hat. If Nancy Drew or Agatha Christie knew about the internet, they would be so proud.
This woman laid out her case on TikTok, showing the evidence much like a trial. She showed her viewers her boyfriend's photo of a Philadelphia Phillies vs. Los Angeles Dodgers baseball game he attended during a work trip. There is a man in the stands wearing a white bucket hat.
This woman then looked at her boyfriend’s ex’s photo. It appears to be taken in the same general area as her boyfriend's. The man with the bucket hat is even present. As a result of her findings, this girlfriend chose to break up with her boyfriend because she believes he was cheating with his ex.

This post quickly went viral, with over 7.5 million views. This woman’s ex even asked her to take it down. Most in the comments section agreed with this woman’s conclusion.
“Leave him,” one user advised. “That’s beyond gut, straight facts.”
Another user had similar thoughts.
“Your intuition is telling you what your heart already knows… listen to it,” the person noted.
One user wanted to give the boyfriend the benefit of the doubt: “Or maybe. Just maybe. They were at the same game.”
