Jean’s pregnancy should’ve been a joyful time, but her husband Scott’s female best friend, Avery, turned it into a battleground of control. Initially friendly, Avery became overbearing—bombarding Scott with daily texts about Jean’s diet, baby products, and even criticizing her lunch choices. The tipping point came when Avery insisted on hosting Jean’s baby shower, despite Jean’s polite refusal.
Ignoring boundaries, Avery showed up uninvited with decorations and a full plan. Jean, fed up, devised a quiet revenge: she let Avery decorate their home, then held the real shower elsewhere with her family. Avery was left alone in a beautifully set room, receiving only a cupcake and a photo of the actual celebration.
When confronted, Jean finally laid down the truth—Avery had crossed a line. That’s when Avery confessed: she’d been trying to sabotage Jean and Scott’s relationship out of jealousy and unrequited love. Scott shut her down with grace and finality, reaffirming his love for Jean.
Avery’s manipulation failed. Jean and Scott emerged stronger, united, and ready to welcome their baby—without toxic interference.
