A former friend is threatening me, using her husband’s work phone. I’m ignoring these texts, but should I tell him?

We are both in our 40s. We are both married. We became friends because our husbands worked together. They no longer work together, but we stayed in touch anyway.

She started selling a very obscure MLM and pushed me very hard to support her by helping her market to my friends via Facebook. I refused, and told her why.

I use my Facebook, primarily, for networking for my job. I take it seriously. There’s not a lot of personal stuff on my Facebook. If I were to start sharing her posts about these multiple MLMs she’s involved in, I’d look like a fool.

The one MLM that is the trigger here is a weight loss one. She posted pictures of herself from years ago, when she was skinny, as her after pictures, and her most recent pictures (a good 50 lbs heavier) as her before picture. Since she doesn’t know most of her Facebook friends personally, and since this MLM is primarily sold over the internet, only the people who know her IRL would know the truth. She doesn’t care about anything except selling something so she can make money.

This caused an argument, and while I understood where she was coming from, she refused to accept that I won’t be a supporter of this. Argument ensued, and I ended up blocking her in all ways. She, in turn, blocked my husband who knew nothing about it until I told him a few days later.

We are still friends with her husband. DH and I both suspect that her husband has no idea what went on. I know, because I was once very close to her, that she does a lot of things that he doesn’t know about.

All that happened about a year and a half ago. About two months ago she had a heart attack. When I heard about it, I texted her husband and told him I’m sorry to hear about her, and asked how he’s doing. I did not ask how she’s doing. There were four texts total, two each way. Nothing since.

A few days ago, late at night, she texted me from her husbands phone, telling me how dare I ask about her, told me never to do that, called me a hypocrite, then said she should tell everyone how I am, and said my husband knows, but he won’t say, and that he told her though. She said she will strike one day, and I have my nerve.

I showed it to my husband. He thinks she’s mental. There’s not a chance he confided in her for anything, especially not about me. She was trying to screw up our relationship. It didn’t work.

I didn’t respond. But I did screenshot it. I also noticed that she sent it from her husbands work phone.

So many things are going through my head. Do I tell her husband that his wife is threatening a co-workers wife using his work phone? I’m fairly certain she deleted her texts from his phone. She wouldn’t want him to know she did it.

I’m inclined to do nothing.

But I really wonder what your opinion is on how responsible a person is for their spouses actions?

Tl;Dr: Ex friend threatened me using husbands work cell. I’m pretty sure he doesn’t know bi do know he wouldn’t appreciate it. Should I enlighten him? WWYD?
