\u201cAnd vice versa. Alysia\u2019s my wife and Taya\u2019s my girlfriend,\u201d Tyler elaborates.<\/p>\n
Sean, who has been married to Taya for six years, offers further clarification, saying:<\/p>\n\n\n<\/iframe>\n<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p>\u201cWe are a closed polyamorous quad. A closed quad is four people. We\u2019re only dating within ourselves and married within ourselves.

Well, that\u2019s not exactly clear.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSince the guys switch rooms every night, we don\u2019t know who the fathers of the younger boys are,\u201d Taya reveals in the trailer.<\/p>\n<p>Tyler adds that \u201cwe wonder sometimes\u201d who the father of the younger children is. It would be easy to gather that information, of course, but Tyler says that \u201cfinding out could cause a lot of hurt.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"622\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.thehollywoodgossip.com\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Screenshot-2025-03-17-at-4.59.14%E2%80%AFPM-1024x622.png\" alt=\"Three cast members from TLC's 'Polyfamily.'\" class=\"wp-image-521531\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.thehollywoodgossip.com\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Screenshot-2025-03-17-at-4.59.14%E2%80%AFPM-1024x622.png 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.thehollywoodgossip.com\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Screenshot-2025-03-17-at-4.59.14%E2%80%AFPM-300x182.png 300w, https:\/\/cdn.thehollywoodgossip.com\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Screenshot-2025-03-17-at-4.59.14%E2%80%AFPM-768x467.png 768w, https:\/\/cdn.thehollywoodgossip.com\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Screenshot-2025-03-17-at-4.59.14%E2%80%AFPM-960x583.png 960w, https:\/\/cdn.thehollywoodgossip.com\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Screenshot-2025-03-17-at-4.59.14%E2%80%AFPM-1080x656.png 1080w, https:\/\/cdn.thehollywoodgossip.com\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Screenshot-2025-03-17-at-4.59.14%E2%80%AFPM.png 1142w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 20px), 720px\"\/><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"622\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.thehollywoodgossip.com\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Screenshot-2025-03-17-at-4.59.14%E2%80%AFPM-1024x622.png\" alt=\"Three cast members from TLC's 'Polyfamily.'\" class=\"wp-image-521531 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.thehollywoodgossip.com\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Screenshot-2025-03-17-at-4.59.14%E2%80%AFPM-1024x622.png 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.thehollywoodgossip.com\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Screenshot-2025-03-17-at-4.59.14%E2%80%AFPM-300x182.png 300w, https:\/\/cdn.thehollywoodgossip.com\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Screenshot-2025-03-17-at-4.59.14%E2%80%AFPM-768x467.png 768w, https:\/\/cdn.thehollywoodgossip.com\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Screenshot-2025-03-17-at-4.59.14%E2%80%AFPM-960x583.png 960w, https:\/\/cdn.thehollywoodgossip.com\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Screenshot-2025-03-17-at-4.59.14%E2%80%AFPM-1080x656.png 1080w, https:\/\/cdn.thehollywoodgossip.com\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Screenshot-2025-03-17-at-4.59.14%E2%80%AFPM.png 1142w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 20px), 720px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/cdn.thehollywoodgossip.com\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Screenshot-2025-03-17-at-4.59.14%E2%80%AFPM.png\" loading=\"lazy\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Three cast members from TLC\u2019s \u2018Polyfamily.\u2019<span class=\"image-caption-credit\"> (TLC)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The situation is about to get even more complex, as Taya is currently pregnant with her second child.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-tension-within-the-polyamorous-family\">Tension within the polyamorous family<\/h2>\n<p>Even in the best of circumstances, this arrangement would have the potential to be problematic.
