A 21-year-old black woman from Arizona is heartbroken after discovering that his white boyfriend has been sending racist messages about her to his friends.

It was while Tatum Patrice was spending time with the man and playing off music with his phone that she discovered the group chats he used to have with his friends.

Reading through the messages, she found out that the man told his friends that he always wanted to call her the N-word, adding that his grandfather would have ‘owned’ her and proclaimed ‘f*** black women.’

Patrice took several screenshots of the chats and quickly posted the racist messages on Twitter.

I gave my all to this man [for real]… come to find out, he’s been racist this whole time.
