A "Wife Guy" is an online archetype describing a man—often a celebrity, influencer, or content creator—who builds his public persona or brand around the fact that he loves, adores, or is married to his wife.

And often turns out to be a cheat! Or the two I heard of turned out to be which, two nickels thing.

Idk about that. I know a few Wife Guy types IRL and they seem pretty satisfied. Admittedly, their wives are about 10-20 years younger than them...

The only wife guy I've ever known was also the most flamboyant straight man I ever knew. I also don't know of any gay men more flamboyant than him either now that I think about it.
