Ex lied about Stillborn son

Hi all,

When I was with my ex (14 months)he told me when I first met him that he had a son who was Stillborn called Craig. We broke up 2 months ago.

I honestly believed him because who would lie/exaggerate about something so personal and heartbreaking.

Well I've just been told that the child wasn't a stillborn and was in fact a miscarriage at 13 weeks, when there would be no way of determining the sex of the baby. This was 12yrs ago with his ex wife.

So now I'm wondering why someone could use a miscarriage to get sympathy from their new girlfriend.

This is a guy whose broken the lockdown to visit his new girlfriend on several occasions so it shouldn't come as a surprise but I'm astonished that he would stoop so low to get sympathy from someone.

Has this ever happened to anyone else because it's never happened to me before.
