TikTok has long been accused of ruining attention spans — now but the app is under fire for destroying marriages, too.
A distraught wife has taken to Reddit to reveal that the social media app completely changed her husband’s character, causing the end of the 12-year union.
The anonymous woman, aged 37, said she and her hubby were seemingly happy together before he became hooked on TikTok’s “tradwife” videos.
