Slater reportedly bagged her boyfriend for cheating after their FitBits synced up and Slater noticed an unusual spike in physical activity at 4 am.

Unfortunately this seems like it was a common story for men with fit-watches who shared their data with their wives.
Several other users commented their stories:

The story, while incredibly upsetting, also has a "wow" factor that is kind of unmatchable.
For one thing, why was the FitBit still on?

@SlaterNFL @jennifercarolyn That sucks... and it's also super awesome that he was ratted out by his own gift. 😂— Angelina (No My Name's Not) Libby (@Angelina (No My Name's Not) Libby) 1575570364.0
And for another, how ironic is it that it sort of mirrors the husband in that Peloton commercial, which was very recently spoofed by Ryan Reynolds?
Clearly, fitness gifts are not the way to go for Christmas.
