home wreckers

Affair partners, typically

Home wreckers are people who break up marriages or families, typically by pursuing romantic or sexual relationships with someone already committed.

The term places blame squarely on the outsider rather than the unfaithful partner: She's nothing but a home wrecker.

Less commonly, home wreckers are demolition contractors or their equipment.
