[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think we need more information about what you mean by "not particularly close" to your in-laws. Has he known for a year or this happened a year ago and he only just found out? I think it's pretty odd he hasn't told you and I would be upset too. I can't imagine my spouse keeping something this big in his life from me.[/quote]

I am not that close to them, meaning I do not speak to them unless it's a birthday, holiday, a visit, etc (I try to keep it very cordial).  They usually call and speak to my husband or the children.  The in-laws are not normal and more often than not do not agree with our lifestyle so they often opine on it...  One example, cooking and buying organic foods is exhausting and too much work.  Why don't you just make frozen meals...

FIL met the woman a year ago, but just left recently (maybe a month ago).  My husband found out maybe 3 weeks ago.  His mother called him and was very upset - I was home when she called and he took the call in our bedroom and he said he would talk to me about it later (children were around).  I have asked him about it and he said we'll talk about it later... And then I asked again and he said I was being too nosey.  At the time, I assumed it was something health related or something about his brother.  [/quote]
