A firefighter exposed his wife’s alleged infidelity with a profanity-filled tirade at his surprise 40th birthday, but Daily Mail can reveal the couple are now patching things up.
Nicholas Galante confronted his wife Samantha in front of their unsuspecting friends with a now-viral speech that at first appeared to be a heartfelt gesture of his love.
Nicholas invited Samantha to stand by his side as he addressed the room, revealing how he had a gift for her. He referenced her ring, noting how he was wearing the same shirt then as when he proposed, and asked to see it.
Samantha hands the ring over and he says it was ‘beautiful’ and ‘pretty good for a fireman’, leaving the whole party to believe he was upgrading the ring.
But instead of placing a new diamond on her hand, Nicholas planted a so-called mafia kiss of death on her lips, a mob boss symbol signifying a crime family member has been marked for death.
The New Jersey firefighter then launched into an explicit rant that has been shared widely on the internet, telling Samantha: ‘I f****** know everything. That’s right, b****. I know everything.’
Nicholas claimed he had seen pictures of her unidentified lover’s penis and was aware that she allegedly took emergency contraception pills. He yelled ‘I f****** hate you’ and ‘I hate what you did to my children, the life you f****** stole from them’.
Many social media users voiced their support for Nicholas while others asked for further evidence of Samantha’s alleged infidelity.
But the shocking scandal has taken a jaw-dropping twist as Samantha revealed that she and Nicholas are ‘trying to work things out’.
Reached by phone Wednesday, Samantha explained that she was not issuing a statement, then clarified the situation to the Daily Mail.
‘I don’t know what videos you’ve seen but there’s a lot of misinformation out there,’ she said, adding: ‘I appreciate you calling me…I will tell Nick you called and if we are ready to give a statement, we will be in touch.’

Nearly four years into their marriage, real estate agent Samantha planned a surprise party to commemorate Nicholas’ milestone 40th birthday.
But he derailed the happy evening with an altogether different kind of surprise that left stunned guests gasping with shock.
On the fateful evening, Nicholas took the microphone for a ‘quick’ speech and thanked his friends and family for coming together to celebrate him.
‘Thank you everybody for coming here,’ he said. ‘The love in the room is unbelievable right now. I just want to thank everybody for coming to celebrate with me.’
He cracks a few jokes, prompting laughter from the crowd, and thanked both his parents and in-laws for their contributions to the event.
‘From day one, you guys have always shown me love,’ he said directly to his in-laws. ‘I just want to thank you from my heart. I love and appreciate for you guys.’
He then jokingly mocks the party for not being able to keep the event a surprise and invites his wife to come join him.
‘I figured, it’s pretty smart of me, even though it’s my birthday, to get her a little something. Happy wife, happy life.’
Nearly four years into their marriage, real estate agent Samantha planned a surprise party to commemorate Nicholas’ milestone 40th birthday – but more than just the surprise was ruined at the celebration.

Samantha, seemingly shocked by the gesture, comes up to stand next to him and the firefighter says: ‘It’s funny, last time I did this, I was wearing this same shirt and my uncle’s cuff links, pretty ironic.’
‘Now I am shaking, what is going on here?’ Samantha asks.
But things take an ominous turn when Nick barks: ‘That’s right, b****. I know everything!’
Nicholas asks Samantha for her ring, leaving the crowd of onlookers eager to see what upgrade he secured. But instead they were met with his profanity-filled tirade.
He looked at Samantha and said: ‘I f****** know everything.
‘I had to see his skinny little pale d***, I wasn’t impressed. I know about all the Plan B pills you had to take, you filthy f****** c***. F*** you.’
‘What is happening?’ Samantha, her voice apparently shaking, questioned, but Nicholas doubled down on his allegations.
‘That’s right, I f****** know everything. Don’t act like you don’t f****** know,’ he said.
Samantha questioned again: ‘What are you talking about?’
But he continued: ‘I f****** hate you. I never hated anyone in my life, but I hate f****** you. I hate you for what you did to me, the betrayal. I hate you for what you did to my children.’
