What Would You Do, gay news, Washington Blade

Customers in an Atlanta barbecue restaurant had to choose whether to destroy a four-year marriage because of a cheating husband’s secret affair with a gay lover on the latest episode of “What Would You Do?” on ABC.

Actors depicting a husband and wife were seated near unsuspecting diners to pretend that it was their anniversary. After appearing like a happy couple, the wife gets up and leaves the table. While she’s gone another man enters the restaurant and kisses the husband making it clear that they are in a relationship. The husband tells the man he needs to go because his wife is there and when the wife returns she has no idea that her husband is having a secret affair.

Reactions to the situation were varied. No one appeared homophobic about the affair but were more interested that there was an affair at all.

One woman decides to approach the husband and convince him to tell his wife he’s cheating. Another man keeps quiet, but can’t help laughing to himself. A husband and wife are shocked by the situation, but decide to not get involved.

One woman tries to get the husband to reveal his secret saying he owes it to his wife and to his boyfriend if he really loves him. When the husband still won’t share, the woman tells the wife he is having an affair with a man.

Watch how it plays out below.
