We all dated the same cheater — then dumped him to travel together
Bus-ted!
Morgan Tabor said she had been dating a man for a while when she suspected something was up. Through social media, she learned her boyfriend had not one, but two other girlfriends, Abi Roberts and Bekah King.
Instead of fighting over him, the three women reportedly confronted and dumped the alleged lothario — and began a friendship of their own. They quickly realized they shared the same dream: to embark on a cross-country road trip.
They pitched in to buy and renovate a 30-year-old school bus, which they totally transformed into a living space.
“We all quickly realized that we were going to be good friends. There was just this kind of knowing deep inside of us. It’s like, these girls are special,” Tabor told USA Today.
At first, they named their creation “The BAM Bus” after their initials, but Roberts left the bus in mid-November, so their Instagram handle is now @fine__crew.
The ladies traveled to bucket list locations such as Grand Teton National Park, Great Sand Dunes National Park and Yellowstone National Park. The worst part about living on a bus, they said? Finding a bathroom. The best part? Meeting people from across the country.
“It’s very important and empowering to find a group of women that you can count on. Female friendships really do have a lot of power in them once you’ve really found your group,” King said.
While they didn’t meet under the most ideal circumstances, the women wouldn’t change the past.
“The things that we have been through since then and the experiences we’ve had together and the ways that we have shaped each other … it can’t be replicated,” Roberts said.
“I don’t think any of us would be the same people that we are today if it hadn’t happened. I think we’re all pretty proud of the growth that we’ve had and the experiences that have led us to where we are right now.”
It doesn’t hurt that Deadline reported this week that New Line is developing a film project about the women’s adventure.
“We hope that by sharing our story we can inspire people to step outside of the boxes that no longer serve them and to live a life they are excited for and proud of,” the trio said in a statement to Deadline.
