Jamie Otis says that she started feeling "insecure" and thought husbandDoug Hehner was cheating.- Otis told Us Weekly that feeling amplified when she found underwear that wasn't hers in the closet.
Jamie Otis says she has felt "insecure" before, and even once believed her husband Doug Hehner was "cheating."
The former "Married at First Sight" star told Us Weekly how a misplaced undergarment amplified those feelings. The couple recently moved into an RV with their family, and also said that means "sex, in particular, hasn't been happening very often."
"A good sex life is important to both of us, and we've never been shy about that with each other," Otis said. "And I know that we haven't necessarily had the best sex life in comparison to our old sex life, so I just started getting really insecure that maybe he was cheating."
She continued: "Then, I found a pair of underwear in my closet that were not mine, and it put me over the edge."
Otis said she traveled a lot for work at the time, which meant time apart from her husband. Though Otis didn't give Us Weekly a definitive answer about who the underwear ultimately belonged to, she mentioned that she had gone on a "girls' trip" recently and they had all shared the same laundry.
When the mystery underwear appeared in her clean laundry pile, she guessed that either her husband or their nanny (who both do laundry at home) had put it there without realizing it wasn't hers.
"I was like, 'This is not my underwear,'" she recalled saying to her husband.
Otis said this is something she brought up to her therapist. She spoke about how the situation might make her husband feel.
"I mean, imagine being told that your wife thinks you're cheating and you haven't done that," she said. "That's a tough thing that we're still kind of working through."
