Prosecutors charged a 37-year-old Virginia woman with three counts of indecency with a minor after her husband accused her of having sexual relationships with underaged twin brothers, according to WAVY.
Chesapeake woman Ashleigh Watts allegedly engaged in an eight month relationship with the 15-year-old boys, per WAVY.
The boys, who lived across the street, would reportedly go to Watts’ house to smoke marijuana. Their parents had an “open door” policy with Watts and were comfortable with her because she has a boy roughly the twins’ age, WAVY reported.

Watts’ husband, who along with the twins’ parents filed a protective order against her, once found her topless on the couch with one of the boys who was “pretending to be asleep,” per WAVY.
One of the boys reportedly confided in a neighbor he had been sleeping with Watts since June 2022. He told the neighbor they were in love and when he turned 17, Watts would leave her husband to marry him, Wavy noted. (RELATED: Police Investigating Reports Of Sexual Assaults At Daycare)
The scandalous fling was revealed in February when an anonymous tip was sent to Chesapeake Police alleging an inappropriate relationship between Watts and the teens. One of the boys was reported as a runaway in July, per Wavy. Police found him in the woman’s house weeks later, hiding in a small space behind a mattress, according to court documents obtained by WAVY.
Watts is due in court in October where she’ll face a charge of indecency with a minor, according to WAVY.
