Ever since my sis's best friend slept with her ex bf she been constantly worrying her husband is cheating on her with me. Its really annoying and quite sad too. Why is she do paranoid about this?

Also are you being too friendly with her husband? maybe you should back off a bit.

She's paranoid not because of you but because her confidence has been rocked to the core by the two people she felt she could trust most in the world. Imagine yourself in her position.
It's going to take her a while to get over this but to help her on her way, take her out so it's just the two of you, and share a confidence, so she feels there is some kind of trust between the two of you. Make sure what you share is nothing to do with her husband, but something just the two of you share. Maybe try a new activity together, like dance classes, so that she realises you are there for her, and want to spend time with her for her company and not to be close to her husband.
She's lost her best friend as well as her ex and this will take some getting over but with time and patience she will realise that not everybody is as two faced as her ex boyfriend/friend. If you support her now one day she will be able to repay your kindness and that is what family, at it's best, should be all about.
