Newly revealed text messages between Shanann Watts and a friend reveal her heartbreak as her marriage falls apart.  Shanann canceled a gender reveal party planned for August 7, about a week before she was strangled by her husband.  She had splurged over $800 on a cake, cookies, party supplies and flowers Then texts between the husband and wife revealed the collapsing marriage.

Shanann wrote “Chris told me last night he’s scared to death about this third baby and he’s happy with just Bella and Celeste and doesn’t want another baby."   She then said she thought Chris was having an affair.     Days later, Shanann and her two daughters were dead.
