A married couple who felt like ‘something was missing’ from their relationship now live as a threesome and claim it has made them better parents.
Matthew and Michelle have two children together but claim being in a polygamous relationship is the secret to their happiness.
After signing up to a dating app, they went on a date with Courtney and now she lives with them and their two sons in Huntington Beach, California.
Their children even refer to Courtney as their mum.
Dad Matthew, 31, said: “Being involved with two women is a confidence booster. I’m a needy person so enjoy the extra love and affection.
“I like that the boys have two moms and having a family that is different to what might be considered as ‘normal’ to some people.”
Michelle says having her around means she can carry on with her career while Courtney can stay at home.
Between the sheets the trio said they have the bonus of threesome sex and one on one sex.
They all admit that they enjoy watching the other two during their threesome sex because they “get to see how much love and passion there is”, adding: “It’s all round a huge turn on!”
Courtney said: “It keeps it fun and exciting because it is not the same thing over and over again.
“It’s the best of both worlds. I love having a male and female partner and they both show love and affection in different ways.”
Matthew said people often react when they are out in public together.
He said people say to him: “You lucky guy you have two women” or “You poor bastard you have to deal with two women”.
The women said they often get questioned about how they control their jealousy.
However, the trio said: “The children benefit greatly from the extra love and support, as they have more opportunity to do more activities.
“There are always at least one parent who is able to do things with the kids so they constantly get the love and attention they need.”
Matthew said he loves both women and doesn’t want ‘society’s norms’ to dictate his life.
He added: “Love who you want to love! Don’t let society’s norms dictate your life.
“At the end of the day if your happy with the people in your life that want to be in your life will be happy for you as well and love you know matter what.
“It is a crazy ride so hold on but enjoy every minute of it.”
