EN Starz has obtained a series of videos that seem to suggest that Rebecca is having an affiar with Mike Spencer, her husband Abe's best friend. The footages are said to have been from a private investigator.
While Rebecca and Mike didn't show indecent affection in any of the clips, the videos show Mike leaving Abe and Rebecca's home very early in the morning, suggesting that he slept the night in the house. According to sources, Abe was working out of town when the video was taken.
Fans of the ex-Amish family are obviously shocked by this recent rumor, but Rebecca was quick to defend herself.

"They obviously have hated us for multiple reasons but they do nothing but lie!" she added. "To try and ruin a vey amazing relationship between husband and wife and also with best friends is the most evil thing someone can do!"
Rebecca went on to insist that Mike was like a brother to him, having known him for years.
TLC has not given a statement regarding this issue. The network also has not announced when it will air the new season of "Return to Amish."
