Sharon Wells is warning women to be on the look out when their partners start new jobs

A scorned wife has warned women against letting their husbands work at supermarkets, saying her partner's job at Sainsbury's turned him into a 'ladies man'.

Sharon Wells, from Fort William, Scotland, was pleased when her fiance Colin Robertson got a job at the store to help pay for their planned wedding.

But she says that working around so many women at the supermarket changed Mr Robertson and she discovered he was arranging meetings behind her back.

Retail manager Ms Wells, 38, said: 'I had been in a relationship with Colin for 12 years but in the final year of our relationship, he landed a job at Sainsbury's.

'I didn't think anything of it, I was happy he'd got a new job after being made redundant from his factory role.

'He was shy and I trusted he wasn't the cheating type but that all changed after we got married.

'It was as though a switch had been flicked and Colin was a new man, his new job had made him over confident.'

The couple met in 2000 and Mr Robertson proposed in 2011 and the pair got married 12 months later.

Ms Wells said her husband became a 'ladies man' after starting work at a local supermarket

She says her marriage was ruined by his change from a male to a female-dominated workplace

But their marriage was over in just three months amid claims of his infidelity.

Ms Wells added: 'He was staying out late and making more of an effort with his appearance by wearing aftershave and buying new clothes.

'I didn't mind but he was basically ignoring me at home and he was glued to his phone - that's when my suspicions grew.

'Convinced he was seeing someone at work, I logged into his Facebook. After three months of marriage, our relationship was over.

'He'd arranged to meet up with three separate women, some he'd met online and others in the local pub where he played in a band.

'I felt sick and instantly chucked him out, there's no way he would've had the confidence to talk to women before his new job.'

Mr Robertson got the job in the supermarket to help pay for their wedding, Ms Wells said

Ms Wells added: 'I saved the messages from the one woman and I let her know she was welcome to him over Facebook.'

Ms Wells, who is now divorced, says she wants to warn other women to be on the look out when their husbands or partners start new jobs.

Mr Robertson acknowledged his ex-wife's claims but declined to comment.
