THAT’S A PRICEY L! The Ultimate Homewrecker Tax! TikTok Star Found Liable For Ruining A Marriage, Now Owes The Ex-Wife A Cool $1.75 Million!

TikTok influencer Brenay Kennard is learning a very expensive lesson about getting involved with a married man — one that comes with a $1.75 million price tag. A North Carolina jury found her liable under the state’s rare “alienation of affection” law, which allows a spouse to sue the person they believe destroyed their marriage.

According to court documents, the ex-wife brought over 700 pieces of evidence to prove Brenay’s involvement with her husband — including screenshots, messages, and Brenay’s own TikTok videos, which reportedly showed interactions and trips that aligned with the husband’s absences.

The ex-wife argued that the affair “shattered” their family, and the jury agreed.

Brenay claimed the marriage was already broken long before she entered the picture. But the jury didn’t buy it, concluding that her actions contributed to the collapse of the relationship and awarding the betrayed spouse a massive financial judgment.

The case has exploded online, with many shocked that the decades-old law — still on the books in a handful of states — can deliver such a staggering verdict in 2025. Others called it a cautionary tale about participating in relationships that come with legal (and emotional) consequences.

As one commenter put it:
“This is a whole new level of ‘fk around and find out.’”**

For Kennard, the viral drama has now become a real-life, million-dollar fallout — proving that some offline choices hit harder than any online trend.
