Ex Relatives Online? Facebook etc

My DP is divorcing and I’m worried about stalky online behaviour by his Ex.

He is still Facebook friends with lots of her relatives - all seemingly nice people - but it is obvious that they have shown various posts of his to her.

When I divorced I had a clearout of my Ex Husband’s relatives early on. DP is not wanting to do this.

At what point do you remove the old relatives from Facebook, if you rarely see them and they have no part in your life?

He is also on a WhatsApp group with his own family - and she is still there and posting occasionally. He’s worried about her kicking off if he removes her.

I think he’s being very naive -

It’s not an amicable divorce - far from it.

I still have my ex’s mum as a friend (although she’s not on Facebook) despite a very nasty split with her son 15 years ago. It hasn’t had the slightest affect on my 13 year relationship with my husband.

Let him decide- if it’s clearly causing problems for him then he can delete them. But it’s torall up to him. What you did doesn’t matter.

It's quite easy to create lists on facebook to limit what certain people are allowed to see. It would save him confrontation through unfriending ex relatives, but would also stop them seeing anything controversial.

Any advice on the WhatsApp group?
It’s all his family but the Ex is still on there.

First of all, isn’t this his decision to make? Secondly, social media seems to have a bad effect on people of all ages - I’d suggest you suggest he is careful.
