'My in-laws sent me a 7-minute voicemail by accident - what I heard startled me'
A woman named Leah Kenyon got an unexpected Christmas present after receiving a seven-minute long voice message which included several members of her husband's family talking badly about her
Having a good relationship with your in-laws can be hard. While the stereotype that in-laws are bad usually stays just a stereotype, it remains the truth for some people.
This is the case for Leah Kenyon, who took to TikTok to share the story of how her in-laws accidentally sent her a seven-minute long voicemail just before Christmas which included her husband's family talking badly about her.
Leah started the video off by saying she thought the people who she'd heard in the message had been people she was on good terms with, as they often spent a lot of time together.

"Okay so basically, one of the people butt-dialled me, but my phone was on 'do not disturb' because I was sleeping, so the call went straight to my voicemail. The voicemail, obviously, recorded everything," she explained. "But the crazy part is, I don't even check my voicemails.
"So the person that butt-dialled me must have realised they were leaving me a voicemail. So I'm woken up to a knock on my door, and I look out the window and it's this person. Mind you, they never come to my house, they've never been to my house - we always go to their house."
As she questioned why the woman was at her door, she quickly opened up and said she had to tell her something and quickly started to apologise, saying she didn't know "why they were doing that" - making Leah even more confused.
Leah asked why she was confessing to doing these things, to which the woman said she'd butt-dialled her. Leah went to look at her phone, which is when she found the seven-minute long voicemail.
"The old me immediately would have crashed out. But I didn't. I didn't even listen to the voicemail and I let her talk, I let her explain herself, I let her apologise," Leah said. "I did end up listening to the voicemail after, and honestly, I wasn't expecting some of the things that were said over the voice message."
As the people who had talked badly about her had apologised, Leah decided to forgive them.
"These people have no reason to be sitting around talking about me. I've done nothing wrong, we hung out days before, everything was good. Like I said, I thought we were good. I thought they liked me," she said. "In my mind, I know this had nothing to do with me, but this is their own issue."
After watching the video, people quickly took to the comments, sharing their own stories but also asking if Leah was okay.
One person asked how her husband had reacted, to which Leah replied: "He was very upset and held everyone accountable! Did not see or speak to those who did not apologise to me on Christmas and won't until they do so!"
Another person said: "They aren't apologising because they are sorry. They are apologising because you found out.
"I wish this would happen to me. I need to know who to leave alone," a third user said.
