Sam Rader, one half of Christian vlogging couple Sam and Nia, has been discovered to have a paid Ashley Madison account.
The 29-year-old father of two made headlines earlier this month when a video he made went viral. The Internet fell in love when Rader surprised his wife Nia, 26, and told her that she was pregnant by dipping a pregnancy test in an unflushed toilet bowl full of her urine. Days after the revelation, the couple announced that Nia had a miscarriage when she was six weeks pregnant, according to BuzzFeed.
Rader allegedly made two payments of $189 to the infidelity service in September 2013, the same month that his second child was born and he celebrated four years of marriage with his viral star wife, the Daily Mail reported. Another four payments of $14 were also listed under his name in the database. The information was taken from the affair seeking site after it was hacked earlier this year. The date showed Rader's name, his hometown of Terrell, Texas, and a zip code that the Daily Mail verified matched his home address.
Members of Ashley Madison were able to access the site for free, but users had to buy credits to send messages. $49 allowed users to get 100 credits, while $250 earned a member 1,000 credits and a money-back "affair guarantee" if the person did not have an affair within three months. The records implied that Rader bought a total of around 800 credits. Rader and Nia built a strong fanbase on YouTube as they preached their Christian values and documented life with their two young daughters.
Rader was not the only Christian family man who paid Ashley Madison to help him have an affair. Josh Duggar, the former star of "19 Kids and Counting," also had an account and was forced to admit to cheating on his wife Anna multiple times, reported PEOPLE. The revelation came after Duggar also admitted to molesting five underage girls, including some of his sisters, when he was a teenager.
