No you don’t take him back, you show your DD that it’s not acceptable.
Get him to move out ASAP so that you can start your new life together, show DD how independent you can be.
Have you spoken to a solicitor?

Sorry you are going through this. It would not be wise to take him back. It sounds like he’s made his mind up.

Be as honest as you can with your DD, let her know she can talk to you any time.

I would see a good solicitor ASAP to know where you stand financially and with the house, etc.

I know it’s shocking and utterly devastating. My ex-husband met someone else and left me for her. It was so hard but it gets better.

All of the above. And importantly you must inform the school. She’s doing exam years under in this environment. They can support her too. x
