Kate Langbroek has little time or patience for women who sleep with married men.
On her nationally syndicated radio show on Wednesday afternoon, Hughesy and Kate, Langbroek and Dave Hughes discussed the story of the day: Deputy Prime Minister Barnaby Joyce had an ‘affair’ with a former staffer, Vikki Campion, and they are expecting a baby together in April.
“It’s horrible, it’s hideous, it’s terrible,” Langbroek said of the story, after Joyce’s estranged wife alleged the affair began when Campion was working as a paid member of his staff.
The radio host went on to deliver a powerful and impassioned message to women who sleep with married men.
Watch the video below:
“It happens a lot, but here’s the thing, and maybe I say this because I am a woman. Don’t get me wrong, I totally hold Barnaby Joyce to account for his own actions. But I’m not a man, so all I can speak for is on behalf of myself as a woman and to other women: Stop sleeping with married men. Don’t do it. Stop doing it.

Yep as the mistress becomes their reason not to go home to children & partners. It also becomes a bad deal for the mistress in the long run, as they miss out especially around holiday seasons which we all know can get lonely without those we care about. I often wonder about how these women can get around that sort of stuff that does happen. The inevitable phone call saying that he can't make it cos he's stuck at work, I've heard them from those that have gone there. I made one mistake never again many years ago & it just isn't/wasn't worth it.
I'd like to know why we are stoning the (single) women here? Sisterhood is not solely reserved for the married portion of this sex. No doubt married (and scorned) women would sleep better at night if they could lay all the responsibility of their husbands' (dis)loyalty in the laps of other women, but is that really fair? A man's fidelity should not be based on whether or not he has the opportunity to cheat, but, rather, on the fact that he remains faithful in the face of such an opportunity. Some married men are relentless in their pursuit of women other than their wives, and some women sleep with married men with no intention of taking them away from their wives or families. We can stand on our pulpits and preach about the "grubby" and "rotten" behaviour of these individuals, but let's not feign prudishness, it's 2018 for goodness sake! Let's acknowledge that in many cases, it's just about sex. Don't get me wrong, I have no respect for a man who cheats on his wife and family, but HE is the one who made the commitment, therefore HE is the one who should show restraint.
I think at the very initial point it was made VERY clear that the husband has not been resolved of responsibility in this situation. Absolutely not. He made the vow therefore he should be held accountable. However, entering into a relationship with a man who you know is married, who you know has 4 children with his wife? Maybe if we had more consideration, compassion, empathy for the people we are impacting then we could have a defensible position. Maybe the married man would find comfort elsewhere if he is 'relentless' enough. Let him. At least you should be able to sleep at night. Don't sleep with a married man. Yes, he's a piece of shit for doing it but just because its his vow doesn't resolve you from responsibility. Try explaining to the four kids how you're not accountable for any of this.
