Yet another reason NOT to have an affair...

...or rather the same old reason - it always comes out at exactly the WRONG time. Like, for example, when the mine you're working in collapses, and both your wife and your mistress come out to hold vigil. And meet.

Britain's Sun newspaper reports the wife of Yonni Barrios, Marta Salinas, was stunned and upset to find his girlfriend Susana Valenzuela also conducting a vigil for him.

Salinas told the newspaper: "Barrios is my husband. He loves me and I am his devoted wife. This woman has no legitimacy."

But The Sun reported Valenzuela as saying the 50-year-old miner was going to leave his wife for her.

"We are in love. I'll wait for him," she told the paper.

So, perhaps there is one Chilean miner who is NOT sorry to hear they won't be able to get him out of there for a while.
