Matt and Ilene have been together for nearly two years, during which time they had a now 1-year-old son and have another baby on the way. But their relationship deteriorated about six months in, according to Ilene. "Matt started accusing me of cheating on him. I did not see it coming at all," says the 20-year-old who's 7 1/2 months pregnant. "Matt thinks I'm sleeping with my ex-boyfriend, his friend and half the town. I think Matt is crazy and delusional."
Matt admits that he consistently accuses Ilene of infidelity, has spit in her face, and that he has called her "slut," "whore," and "pig." He says, "I am almost 100 percent sure that Ilene has cheated on me with two different people," and he also thinks she's pregnant with someone else's child. "I can't get past the fact that she may have cheated on me and is hiding it," he explains.
But Ilene says she has never been unfaithful. "The most hurtful thing Matt does is that he turns to my son and he will say, 'I know your mommy is a whore.' He'll say that he's sorry for choosing someone like me to be his mother," she says in the video above.
Why does Ilene stay with him, and how does Matt explain his behavior? Watch the video above and tune in to this episode of Dr. Phil on Tuesday.
