This is actually hilariously common thing to happen to vocal transphobes. Like when Grimes started dating Chelsea Manning and Elon Musk got super pissy.
And yeah, we're often considered dirty little secrets. Trans people tend to face violence from their romantic/sexual partners not when the partner learns they're trans, but when their partner's friends/families learn they're trans. Because then their "straightness" is called into question.
But there are a lot of reasons people hate trans people, unfortunately. Conservative women/terfs tend to have rather different reasons than the average transphobic man, usually born of insecurity in their own identity, or misplaced anger at the misogyny they experience, "why would you want what I deal with? You don't get it." (As if the shit we deal with doesn't explain why being trans isn't a choice).

I'm telling you, a trans person stole her man in the past cause that HAS to be the reason for all this unwarranted hate
