Open relationship and fwb

I apologise if this is long I will try and keep it to the point.
I split with my partner of 22yrs and my child's dad in Jan. (Completely amicably we were just in a rut)

I met a guy with the intention of fwb/nsa in May. We had a disagreement June. Wasn't sure if I would see him again.

July I started sleeping with my ex again on a family holiday booked b4 we split.
I was still talking to fwb but he was messing in regards to if he wanted to see me again. We have had on/off contact all the whole time.

I met up with fwb beginning of Oct. After this my ex and I decided to try an open relationship which is working for us. I only have this 1 fwb.

Fwb spoke once in Nov (I initiated contact no meet up ) and have started speaking again this week with intention to meet.

Do I tell fwb about my open relationship or treat it as if it was just another fwb?

He has other women (he denied it once expecting me to be dramatic i pointed out we arent exclusive now we dont mention others) He is active on dating sites as am I.

If it was another FWB I wouldn't mention it, I'm only debating it as its a relationship. My partner is fully aware of the situation and thinks I should just treat it as i would a fwb as the guy has been flaky and played games in the past and ghosts me for weeks until he wants a hook up.

I really don’t get the question or the problem here?

just be honest. He is FWB and he doesn’t care whether you have a relationship or not.
