‘Predator mother’ Ashleigh Watts has been branded a serial cheater and “pedophile bitch” in a bitter divorce battle with her jilted husband, can exclusively reveal.
Watts, 38, faces multiple counts of indecency with a minor for allegedly molesting the twin teenage boys who live across the street in Chesapeake, Virginia.
Her 13-year marriage collapsed in February when suspicious husband Andy Watts went downstairs at 2am and found her topless on the couch with one of the 15-year-old brothers.
Construction manager Andy, 38, left the $500,000 marital home within days and filed for a protective order barring Watts from access to their children, ages 11 and 13.
And in a damning divorce filing revealed by today, he accused the stay-at-home soccer mom of cheating with another man just days before he caught her with the twin.
According to a criminal complaint, Watts’ husband caught his unfaithful wife on the couch with the boy topless when he got home around 2 a.m. The evicted husband told the officer the boy “pretended to be asleep.”

Watts claims in a countersuit that her estranged husband bullied and insulted her, smashed her phone and branded her a “psychotic slut” and a “c*m dumpster” in front of their children.
He denies hurling those very insults at her, but openly admits in the final round of prosecutions that he “called the defendant a pedophile idiot.”
Before her arrest, Watts portrayed herself as a wholesome, loving housewife, performing sweet dance routines with her daughter on TikTok and posting funny photos from a family vacation to Disney World.

The mask slipped, according to a police report, on Feb. 17 — her daughter’s birthday — when Andy found Watts “topless on the couch” with one of her son’s teenage friends.
The twin pretended to be sleeping but later confessed to his parents that he had smoked marijuana with Watts and had unprotected sex with her since June last year.
A month later, the boy ran away, but police found him hiding in Watts’ bedroom in just his underwear and charged her with a series of child abuse crimes.
She is also accused of molesting the boy’s brother, who claims she gave him 22 pairs of skimpy Victoria’s Secret panties before trying to pull his jeans down.
In his May 23 divorce filing, Andy says he became suspicious of his wife last summer when she began hiding her cellphone and staying out until the wee hours of the morning.
“When the plaintiff looked at the defendant’s Snapchat profile, he became aware that the defendant’s list of ‘best friends’ included two young men who also lived in the parties’ neighborhood and often lived at their marital home,” he explains.
“Between June 2022 and February 17, 2023, plaintiff woke up several times in the middle of the night to find defendant entering the home from the garage or backyard. When confronted, the defendant claimed she couldn’t sleep.
“During this time, the defendant began strategically placing pillows between the parties to prevent them from touching each other while sleeping in the marital bed.”
Andy further accuses his wife of sleeping with one of the underage twins – who is not named because he is the alleged victim of a sex crime – and “BW”, an unidentified man.
“The defendant committed adultery several times during the marriage,” he said.
“For example, the defendant had sexual intercourse with a juvenile male … at various times and locations in Virginia, including the marital residence in Chesapeake.”
“The defendant had sexual intercourse with a man whose initials are BW at various times and locations in Virginia…for example, on or about February 13, 2023, the defendant had sexual intercourse with BW.”
Watts responded by denying any allegations of pedophilia and accusing her husband of “belligerent, controlling and possessive behavior.”
She also “asserts the affirmative defense of acquiescence,” claiming that she and Andy got along well enough to have sex on February 18 – one day after he allegedly caught her cavorting with the twin, and five days after the alleged liaison with BW.
“Plaintiff drinks too much and becomes aggressive and insults her, calling her ‘psychotic bitch’, ‘dumpster’, ‘c**t’ and telling her ‘you’re only good for a piece of ass’,” Watts files a counterclaim.
In it, Andy is accused of throwing drinks and beer bottles at her and getting so drunk that he overturned her golf cart, causing her to suffer injuries to her head and elbow.
She claims that her husband, from whom she is separated, “yelled at the defendant and called her a pedophile slut in front of the children and told the children that he was going to put the defendant in jail.” He then stormed aggressively up the driveway Defendant, grabbed boxes and threw them onto the street.
“Plaintiff has tirelessly made false allegations against Defendant of adultery and falsely accused Defendant of pedophilia.”
“Plaintiff has been so steadfast in his prosecution that he has defamed and slandered Defendant both publicly and in front of the children. “Plaintiff has also encouraged the parties’ neighbors to defame and slander Defendant.”
In his most recent filing dated July 6, Andy denies his wife’s allegations, admitting only that while he called her a “pedophile slut,” he did not do so in front of the children.
Watts is currently under house arrest at her father’s home, where photographed her lounging and laughing in the sun despite the prospect of a 30-year prison sentence.
The father of the teenage twins, Watts, who are accused of abuse, told : “She’s disgusting. “My wife is devastated. It’s terrible for our children
When the twins’ outraged parents learned of the alleged abuse, they expressed their anger by hanging a huge banner over their porch that read, “Pedophiles are not human.”
Asked if his daughter had anything to say, 60-year-old William Deihl initially insisted she wasn’t there, then added: “Everything you write is wrong. ‘You’re not investigating anything.’
Watts’ children are living with their father in a new home in Virginia Beach, but he has asked a Chesapeake Circuit Court judge to award him the four-bed marital home and sole custody of the children.
Watts was initially charged with contributing to the delinquency of a minor, but was arrested Aug. 17 on three counts of indecency with a child and is scheduled to appear in court again in October.
The twins have been offered counseling as their parents grapple with the long-term trauma caused by Watts’ alleged appetite for little boys.
In July, the outraged couple hung a banner reading “Pedophiles are not human” over their front porch to shame Watts, who had to walk past it every time she left the house.
“They are good children.” They were completely manipulated. “This whole ordeal is crazy,” her father previously told .
“You read about things like this in the tabloids, but you never think it could happen to your own family.”
