I understand you must be hurt if this is really happening. Outing the woman that you believe to be your husband's mistress in public is not a good idea. Although I can understand how on some level it would feel satisfying, you run the risk of committing slander and defamation if anything you say publicly is wrong or not factual. This is a matter that is best kept private. Good luck to you.
