It can cause a lot of friction in the family, but that didn’t happen to Audrey Loving.

When she found out another woman was tucking her 4-year-old daughter, Riley, into bed at night, she chosen to write a thank-you note to her.

Based in Newport Wales, Virginia, Audrey wrote her ex’s new girlfriend the sweetest message.

She wrote: “Why do all these moms act so spiteful and jealous towards the other woman?”

The 24-year-old uploaded the post to the Facebook page ‘Love What Matters’, on November 14 and it’s gone viral!

Loving added: “No one said it was easy trying to be a mother to a kid you didn’t have. So when there is someone trying, don’t push them away!”

Instead of acting in a hateful way, she praised her ex’s new girlfriend Whitney McGraw, who she called “the sweetest thing ever” for feeding Riley and looking after her little girl.

She said that the more people that love your kid, the better and that she’s “extremely thankful” for her.

Her post has since been shared numerous times and has had 81,000 likes and nearly 3,000 comments.

Audrey and her ex Corey Henry amicably split back in 2013 when Riley was just a year old.

Talking to Us Weekly she said: “Before Whitney came along, I would always worry when Corey had Riley by himself.

“I would send her to his house with a letter that said, ‘Don’t forget Riley needs a nap time,’ and ‘Don’t let Riley have too much candy.’”

“I just feel so lucky that I don’t have to worry about Riley.”

“There are some sad situations where the husband cheats, and it’s awful,” she added.

“But you get tougher and make it work for your kids. They’re growing. They’re learning. If we teach them to be hateful and negative, the world will continue to be hateful and negative.”

Isn’t that the truth! What a woman…
