Pose star Angelica Ross thought she met the man of her dreams. But that didn't last long. Thanks to some detective work from the internet, the actress found out that she was being played.
Ross first went to Twitter on Wednesday to announce her newfound relationship, saying she had to distance herself from her new man because of the coronavirus.
"Finally found him and have to distance myself from him, an early test we’re committed to passing. I miss you B," she wrote.

Turns out, this distance would soon become permanent. Fans conducted an investigation to find out that the man, whose identity has not been confirmed, has a kid and is engaged. The actress confirmed the internet's detective work in another tweet.
"The internet is AMAZING," she wrote. "I’ve been talking to the mother of his son and fiancé all morning."
One of Ross' fans summed up the drama to those who may have been confused.
"For those who don't get it. Queen Angelica found this man and was dating," the fan tweeted. "She posted this on Twitter and we all REJOICED in excitement. Twitter FBI probably saw the tweet and told Angelica this man has a kid and is engaged. Angelica was talking to his fiancé all morning."
