Has anyone dealt with an ex that wants to maintain contact with you but hide it from their current partner?

That’s my current boyfriend. I know his ex and him are friends so I said that it’s okay for them to keep in touch as long as he’s open about it with me. He said he wants nothing to do with her anymore and would never even text her. Found out that they’re still in contact, even met up and talked on the phone… I feel betrayed bc I specifically told him that I’m ok with it as long as he lets me know but he hid it from me (bc he’s scared that I will get pissed) wtf right.

The current partner always finds out and it’s worst if you try to keep it a secret. I never saw a good outcome in this.
