Absolutely, either this story is made up, or that woman is insane.

Bad for the kids...
"I laughed it off as nonsense," he said. "But she didn't. She told me to leave, informed our kids about the divorce, and the next thing I knew, I was getting a call from her lawyer."
Seems like an easy custody battle but hey you never know
Easy for a man to get custody of the kids? What world do you live in?
My friend’s ex repeatedly crashed her car while drunk with their daughter in the car and he had to fight a pretty much non-stop court battle for over a decade to maintain his 50%.

In that case I predict the man doged a bullet here of a lifetime with a moron.
Theyre not in the clear yet. This type of crazy doesn't exit your life just the once.
Heck, you're lucky if you catch them entering back in before they've made another exit.
I wonder if modern stupid is funnier than ancient stupid
Some things never change.
Good for him.
My ex-wife used tarot cards to justify cheating on me, and then leaving me.
I didn't even know she had tarot cards.
It is amazing what excuses cheaters will use to justify their behavior.
In my case, my ex did the nature documentary argument way before the manosphere became a thing. I dunno why that is a pattern with that sort of man. They like to think of themselves as superior intellectuals until it comes to sex, then they will make graphs and studies and be pseudo David Attenboroughs to justify that their caveman urges are too strong for them to overcome.
I guess the female version of that is tarot cards, coffee grounds and zodiacs? I hope you found a better lady later, because that one surely wasn't worth keeping in your life!
Well, it's probably true. Their urges are too strong for them to overcome. But that's what an adult should be able to do, overcome the fucking urges

I admire the creativity of idiots. They come up with fresh stupid ideas each and every day.
I mean at this point, shame on him for marrying someone like that to begin with
The person you love can slowly deteriorate before your eyes.
Given the average answers I get from AI, i dare to bet he won't even begin an affair if naked woman start throwing themselves at him.

These people are on the fast lane for removing themselves from the gene pool in never before imagined ways.
The (now divorced) couple do have 2 kids so those genes will continue existing well into the future.
Still not sure I entirely believe the story but there are a few other mentions with a bit more details

Stupid people deserve to be alone, and the guy dodged a bullet
This is about as psychotic as governments using AI to predict crimes.

AI tasseography – a form of divination that interprets shapes left by tea leaves (or sometimes coffee grounds or wine sediment) after a cup is drunk.
So. Instead of just, idk, feeding ChatGPT all known details of the SO and maybe a dump of their messages or whatever and actually have a chance of it giving you a proper answer...they... just gave it a pic of a drunk coffee cup‽ Wtf is wrong with people
Even then ChatGPT would just give you an answer based on the wording of how you asked the question to try and agree with you.
You're a reaaaal asshole if you feed your SO's messages to a third party corporation
Sure, it can't count how many Rs are in strawberry, but it definitely for sure can predict future affairs in bean stew ingredients. /s

It seems that the woman has a penchant for believing mystical guidance. "A few years ago, she visited an astrologer and it took a whole year for her to accept that none of it was real," the husband said.
That should've been the first clue. I can date someone who engages in fantasy for a bit, but if they never come back to reality then just put the relationship down humanely.
The guy didn't lose anything. He will found someone better.
The guy didn't lose anything. He will fund someone better.
Not sure if typo, or cynicism.
