Check out the below for some TGIF Random Ridiculousness, that is not celeb news, but still newsworthy [Website – Amy Grindhouse].

Woman Divorces Husband For Having A ‘Virtual’ Affair On Second Life

According to The Telegraph:

The Internet game, “Second Life”, sees players create characters for themselves and live in a parallel, virtual universe – including having jobs, relationships and children.

But after Amy Pollard, 28, discovered her husband’s character having sex with another female player online she filed for divorce citing “unreasonable behaviour”.

The couple, who have been married for three years, had first met in the game, where their alter egos were called ‘Dave Barmy’ and ‘Laura Skye‘. They arranged to meet up in real life and moved into a house together in Cornwall. They were married at a registry office in St Austell in July 2005 – and even marked the occasion by holding a virtual wedding in Second Life, modelling it on the “fairytale” ceremony of David and Victoria Beckham.

Mrs Pollard said that she discovered her husband’s most recent online infidelity in April after she had awoken from an afternoon nap and caught Mr Pollard in a compromising position on the game.

“[...] he confessed he’d been talking to this woman player in America for one or two weeks, and said our marriage was over and he didn’t love me any more, and we should never have got married.”

Amy said her estranged husband is now even engaged to the woman he had an ‘affair’ with on Second Life – even they have never actually met in real life. She said she has also found a new, who she also met online, while playing the fantasy role-playing game World Of Warcraft.
