A husband has divorced his wife after finding a picture of her with another man on Google Maps, it has been claimed.

The man was checking the best way to get to a bridge in the Peruvian capital city of Lima when he spotted a familiar figure, a news agency claims.

He saw a woman sitting on a bench stroking the hair of a man who was lying with his head in her lap.

He first recognised that the woman’s clothes were identical to those of his wife and then looked closer and realised it was her, according to local media.




The photo, taken by a Google camera car, dated back to 2013 but the man confronted his wife with the Google Street View picture as evidence of her infidelity.

And the couple, whose names have not been revealed, later divorced after the woman admitted to having had an affair.

She was photographed with her lover on a bench by the city’s Puente de los Suspiros de Barranco – Bridge of Sighs of the Ravine.

The man recently shared the photographs on Facebook where they made a big impression on users.

San Pateste said: ‘What a small world it is… It would have been enough if she said to her husband that she did not love him any more.’

The photograph is one of a long line of bizarre images taken for the Google Maps and Google Street View online resources.

They include people dressed as pigeons, an escaped convict, a couple having sex by their car, street robberies, and a woman giving birth.
