I Found Out My Fiancé Is Already Married

I honestly thought I was about to marry the love of my life. We dated for almost three years. He was caring. Responsible. Everyone in my family liked him. He had already paid my bride price introduction list and we were fixing a date for our traditional marriage. I couldn't wait to become his wife. Then one afternoon, I got a phone call from an unknown woman. She asked if I knew a man called ***** I laughed and told her, "That's my fiancé." There was silence for a few seconds. Then she said something that made my whole body weak. She said, "He's my husband." At first, I thought it was one of those jealous ex-girlfriends trying to destroy my relationship. I even insulted her and ended the call. A few minutes later, she sent me pictures. Wedding pictures. Not just one or two. There were plenty. Pictures with both families. Pictures in church. Pictures of them cutting their wedding cake. Then she sent videos. After that came pictures of two little children calling him Daddy. I still refused to believe it. I confronted him immediately. Instead of denying it, he just kept begging me to calm down so he could explain. According to him, the marriage had "ended a long time ago," but they were still legally married because they hadn't finalized the divorce. Then his wife sent me another message. She said they still lived together. She even sent me a picture of his clothes hanging in their bedroom that same day. I didn't know who to believe anymore. The man I trusted with my future suddenly became a complete stranger. Our wedding is supposed to be in less than two months. My family has already spent money. Invitations are almost ready. Some of my friends have already bought clothes for the wedding. Part of me wants to walk away immediately. Another part of me keeps wondering if there's any truth to what he's saying. I don't even know what to believe anymore. If you were in my shoes... Would you cancel the wedding immediately? Or would you hear him out first?
