Rachael Buck, a TikTok user, posted a video that showed the aftermath of her husband’s infidelity. It went viral — and it was in her face.
Buck shared a Ring video Monday showing her husband removing his clothes from their front yard. The text overlay on TikTok warns women not to let their man travel to Vegas without them. The video had received 8.7 millions views by Wednesday afternoon.
The three-part Buck follow-up received millions of views and viewers were eager to learn more about her husband’s infidelity. She said that her husband was on a work trip to Las Vegas and ended up in a strip club with his co-workers. He stayed there until his colleagues returned home. Buck claimed that her husband claimed he blacked after being drugged by a stripper, but she insisted that nothing had happened. Buck was skeptical of her husband’s account so Buck took to TikTok “to validate that I wasn’t crazy.”
This saga is the latest example of someone’s private life suddenly going viral. TikTok viewers are known to latch onto interpersonal dramas and make them into huge scandals. They take sides, show support, and even give unreserved advice.
Women cannot win. It doesn’t really matter what we do. It doesn’t matter what we do.
Stephanie Buck, a tiktok user, went viral with her story about her husband infidelity.
Buck was criticized by viewers for her explanation videos. This raised suspicions about her dramatic storytelling style. Many viewers accused Buck of lying about the incident to get views. Some others made some disparaging comments about her, calling her irritating or suggesting that she deserved to be cheated.
Commenter: “Is this just me, or does it seem staged?”
“It’s no wonder he cheated, acting like that!” Another commenter said the same thing.
Buck claims her story is true, but she wishes that it weren’t.
Buck responded to the criticisms of viewers about her presentation, saying: “Women cannot win.” It doesn’t really matter what we do. It doesn’t matter what we do.
She said, “I understand the backlash because, you know. Not everything needs to be publicized but it’s public now.” “And it’s not possible to take it back.”
Many people supported Buck’s storytime series. But she posted another TikTok video later, sharing her feelings that some people had gone too far for her.
Buck has since made her TikTok account private in the hope that the fervor would “die down”. However, her videos have been re-uploaded on other platforms such as Twitter and Reddit where people continue to examine them.
She was shocked at how viral her videos were, as she only had 12 followers when she uploaded the first video. She said that the attention has been “very humble” for her husband and her.
She said that her husband has not been in any trouble at work, but his coworkers reached out to him regarding the videos.
Buck stated, “I don’t want him losing his job over it, because we have children to support.” “Taking care of our children is our sole concern at the moment.”
Buck’s husband declined to comment through Buck, stating that they didn’t know all the facts due to the alleged blackout.
Buck stated, “He’s not bad.” He made a mistake. “He doesn’t want any of this to have a negative impact on his children, and neither do i.”
Buck stated that she didn’t regret posting the video despite the backlash. However, she believes she would have handled the situation differently if given the opportunity. Buck said that she received many supportive messages from other women who had experienced similar situations. She said that people told her their stories helped them.
Buck spoke out about what the future holds for her relationship. She said that it isn’t something that can easily be solved in one day and that it can’t be solved in one week. People are wrong to expect me just to leave my life to post a TikTok.
