Throuple Life: Rowan Mangan And Her Two Wives

Subscribe to Mamamia

Rowan Mangan never expected to be part of a throuple. Neither did her two partners, Martha Beck and Karen Gerdes who had been together for several decades before Rowan came into their lives.

Today, the three women are in a monogamous relationship with one another and are raising a toddler after Rowan gave birth to their daughter during the pandemic.

In this No Filter episode Mia Freedman asks Rowan how it all works. How did they decide they wanted to be together? How did their families react? How do they deal with jealousy? And who has to sleep in the middle because that seems like it would be uncomfortable.
