Pregnancy & Miscarriage
In June 2015, a video was posted by Sam Rader where he surprised his wife, Nia, with the news of her pregnancy.

The video, titled “Husband Surprises Wife with Pregnancy News,” quickly gained widespread attention.
After three days, the couple shared another video filled with emotion, revealing that the pregnancy had ended in a miscarriage. This video also gained widespread attention and received both positive and skeptical responses from viewers.
The Ashley Madison Scandal
Three days after the miscarriage was made public, it was discovered that Sam Rader had been a member of an adult dating website called Ashley Madison three years earlier. Multiple media outlets quickly reported this information.
In August 2015, Sam made a public apology through the family’s YouTube channel after confessing to his wife about his participation in the dating website, Ashley Madison. He also revealed in the video that both God and Nia had pardoned him.
Although he refuted any accusations of infidelity with his wife or meeting with individuals from the controversial website, he stated,
“The account was opened out of pure fleshly desires and out of simple curiosity.”
Despite Nia’s initial reluctance, she and Sam were able to overcome the cheating scandal and reconcile their marriage.
