Firefighter files for divorce from alleged cheating wife

The New Jersey firefighter who picked his 40th birthday celebration to lay bare his wife’s alleged philandering has officially filed for divorce.

The New Jersey firefighter who picked his 40th birthday celebration to lay bare his wife’s alleged philandering has officially filed for divorce, sources close to the couple told The New York Post.

Nick Galante had his wife of three-plus years, Samantha Egues, served with divorce papers on May 17, sources revealed.

Galante’s decision to end his marriage comes weeks after he confronted the 33-year-old mother of his two children during his crowded celebration earlier this month, New York Post reported.

“Nick is ready to move on and put this entire chapter of his life behind him,” said one of the two-timed husband’s close friends.

“The trust there is lost, which is sad for their [two] kids. Frankly, I can’t really blame him for [pursuing] the divorce, because he’s still fairly young.”

Jaw-dropping video of the profanity-laced castigation was shared online, and has been seen at least 10 million times across multiple social media platforms.

“The video [of the confrontation] going viral didn’t help,” the friend added.

“There’s really no coming back from that, because it’s going to [live] forever online. It’s sad for those kids.”

A microphone-wielding Galante addressed his party guests with his realtor wife by his side.

“I f***ing know everything,” Galante says in the footage.

“That’s right, b***h, I know everything. I know all about the Plan B pills you had to take, you filthy f***king w***e.

“Don’t act like you don’t f***ing know,” he told his shrugging wife.

The couple continue to live under the same roof in Nutley, the sources said.

But reconciliation doesn’t appear to be in the cards.

“You don’t confront your wife in front of every single person you know like that unless you’re certain in your heart you’re done [with her],” one of the sources told The Post this week.

“There are lots of lessons to be learned here.”

The couple has not responded to repeated requests for comment.
