My mum thinks my dad might be cheating on her with my neighbour.

For context, we’ve lived next to this woman, let’s call her Alex, for over 15 years and we used to hang out all together frequently. This changed during Covid as my mum realised she didn’t enjoy her company as she would frequently get incredibly drunk at family events. (The police got called on two separate occasions and I’ve seen her wet herself too many times to count.)My mum didn’t not want too be her friend she just didn’t want her around us when we where young, Alex didn’t see it this way and stopped talking too her.
Her and my dad still hang out very frequently, at least once a week for the pub quiz.This is where the real issue lies my mum realised that him and Alex had 6 separate events planned outside of their weekly hangout when him and my mum haven’t been out this year( one off which being a three day long concert where they get hotels and stay in London).
I’ve never seen my mum get this down about herself and it’s concerning me. My mum is a beautiful,courageous, and intelligent woman and seeing her this upset has really rattled me.
I don’t know what to do. I doubt he has as I have access to all of his texts and I’ve never seen anything so I don’t know if I should mention it to him. My mums the type too push her feelings down as she doesn’t think they’re important so I know if I don’t say anything nothing will change.
I’d really appreciate some direction or advice if anyone has anything.
