The wife fearful for her and her families lives, under duress, caved into their threats and convinced Samson to give her the answer:

Judges 14:17 And she wept before him the seven days, while their feast lasted: and it came to pass on the seventh day, that he told her, because she lay sore upon him: and she told the riddle to the children of her people.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76851327


This betrayal angered Samson and bears witness to his God given purpose in life - to slowly but surely weaken the Philistines:

Judges 14:19 And the Spirit of the Lord came upon him, and he went down to Ashkelon, and slew thirty men of them, and took their spoil, and gave change of garments unto them which expounded the riddle. And his anger was kindled, and he went up to his father's house
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 75411797


Samson was betrayed once again:

Judges 14:20 But Samson's wife was given to his companion, whom he had used as his friend
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76631018


Each betrayal brought severe reprisals - and there were many:

Judges 15:4 And Samson went and caught three hundred foxes, and took firebrands, and turned tail to tail, and put a firebrand in the midst between two tails.

5 And when he had set the brands on fire, he let them go into the standing corn of the Philistines, and burnt up both the shocks, and also the standing corn, with the vineyards and olives.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78001010


The philistines sought out the perpetrator, and when they found out it was Samson and why - they burnt his wife and father.

Judges 15:6 Then the Philistines said, Who hath done this? And they answered, Samson, the son in law of the Timnite, because he had taken his wife, and given her to his companion. And the Philistines came up, and burnt her and her father with fire.
