Second Life Marriage Ends the Way Many Real Ones Do

Amy Taylor and David Pollard (that's them at left) formerly married for about three years — including in a lavish online ceremony in Second Life — are separated and seeking a divorce, because Amy caught David's avatar banging another avatar and it wasn't hers.
The UK's Metro is reporting, with barely concealed schadenfreude, the end of their marriage and the details are so awesome I'm suspicious this whole thing is made up. But Amy hired a freaking detective to track her husband's activities, after she caught him nailing a virtual hooker — these exist? — in the game last February. Now, David's avatar — "Dave Barmy" — has been caught giving some American homewrecker named "Modesty McDonnell" the hot beef injection, and it's all over.
