Ménage à trois

A ménage à trois (French: [menaʒ a tʁwɑ]) is a French term used to describe a situation where three people are involved in a relationship and live together. Each of the three has a sexual relationship to the two others.[1] A form of polyamory, arrangements are sometimes identified as a throuple,[2] thruple,[3] or triad.[4]

For the purely sexual relation between three people, see threesome.
Postcard, c. 1910

In 2021, the first ever throuple got married, and it is now officially legal.[5]
