This man's wife found his 'deleted' iPhone messages on the family iMac, now he's suing Apple over his divorce

IPhone 15 Pro with a titanium finish running iOS 17.

When you delete texts sent in iMessage, you might think they’re gone forever — but one (now ex) husband found out this isn’t always the case in possibly the worst way. 

As reported by The Times, the husband in question had arranged to meet prostitutes via iMessage on his iPhone, and had deleted the incriminating texts from his device, believing this would cover up his infidelity. However, his wife opened up iMessage on the iMac the family shared and found all the texts — revealing years' worth of messages to prostitutes. She filed for divorce shortly after this realization.
