The Way This Wife Reacted To Finding Messages From Another Woman On A Husband’s Phone Becomes A Meme
We've all been the person in a social setting staring blankly because we didn't get the inside joke, well, the latest viral meme "James Barrett's wife" kind of feels like that - until you read the backstory.
It all started with a Facebook Messanger screengrab posted by Daniella Gay, in which she received an innocent enough question from a James Barret, "What are your plans this evening." Well like most people do at 4 am on a Friday night she wrote back, "Draw vegetables." But alas! Gay had been tricked and unintentionally caught the bait of Barrett's jealous wife who wrote: " “Hey. Just to let u know. Im james barretts wife. Fuck off.” She posted the bizarre try to stop a cheating husband and from there, “Noticing it got a lot of traction, I made a bunch of funny memes about the scenario” she told the Daily Dot. Things took off from there and overnight she had 2,000 shares and thousands of likes on the memes.
But who is James Barrett? The vegetable artist explained that he was a random guy who had probably found her through a mutual friend. According to Gay, these unsolicited messages are quite common, and she responds to many of them.
It's clear this meme isn't going anywhere anytime soon. Gay even created a Facebook meme group called, "artisan vegetable enthusiasts," where people can share more James Barrett's wife memes and vegetables.

My mum now thinks i'm weird because she didn't find this funny when i was belly laughing with tears tripping me hahaha!!!
It is tempting to think the wife is overreacting. But I dont think we see the whole picture here(pun intended) 🙂 It only a few lines from a conversation, that might have been a whole lot juicier before the veggie drawing. On the other hand, she did snoop in James phone, probably without permission... Wonder if James also was told to **** off?
Normally you'd be right, but we can see that it's the start of a conversation

Ima just going to upvote this for no reason :)
Load More Replies...and the vegetable artist.... well... there's no real reason to be worried, if that's, uh, her.
Load More Replies...Why? The kid in the background jumped high enough for his head to touch the ceiling, and the other one is running down the corridor.
Load More Replies...Quite possibly the dumbest thing to be turned into a meme. It's not even funny.
I feel we we need to see the drawings before we 100% judge the artist...
Maybe the artist made a portrait of James' cucumber. Who knows.
Load More Replies...I think the lack of context makes this so much better. Not sure why, but this actually cracked me up.
Actually I draw vegetables for living. I am an illustrator of food labels. Felt strange now...
I know what you mean. It's like getting a wrong number and then being accused of lying about the wrong number.
