The billboard at the corner of North Avenue and Piedmont Road [in Atlanta] called an Oracle exec the eternal soul mate -- of a woman who is not his wife.

And it is one of many in New York City -- including Times Square -- and San Francisco put up by scorned mistress outing her philandering boyfriend Charles Phillips, who reportedly is returning to his wife.

“I had an 8½ year serious relationship with YaVaughnie Wilkins," the statement said. "My divorce proceedings began in 2008. The relationship with Ms. Wilkins has since ended and we both wish each other well."

Several media outlets reported that Wilkins paid for the billboards after she became angry over Phillips' decision to reconcile with his wife. The New York Post put the story on its cover with the headline "Ad As Hell."
