Of weeks ago, the internet was a buzz over rumors of a new celebrity romance. But it wasn’t a couple photo surface of Tyka Waititi, Rita Aura and Tessa Thompson all canoodling. So people had thoughts on social media. They were shocked, confused, maybe even a little jealous. But we saw an article on Refinery 29 asking if it was time to normalize throuples and decided this was the perfect question for our TNT chat. So the throuple, we’re wading into this territory. Now, a throuple is a relationship where all three people have agreed they all want to be connected.

We are definitely wading into territory where folks really want a big opening on what we consider to be a normal relationship.

I think from a personal place, I am more jealous than I care to ever admit. But in real life, I do not think I could be okay with having three people in a relationship with that said, you want to do it, have at it. I’m a big believer in people doing what they feel is right for them. It just might not be right for me. So T, what were your thoughts on this whole idea of the throuple?
Tracy Moore
Well, Tracy, I’ve already been in a throuple. It would shock you, but I’ve been in a throuple. I just didn’t know it. I was talking to somebody, and he had somebody else too. I just didn’t know it. Listen, I’m just trying to get through. I’m just trying to find one man. I don’t think I could handle a throuple. That’s too much for me. I mean, I remember the first time I was introduced to this idea is watching a movie called Threesome. Do you remember that movie in the 90s? It was like the early ninety’s. And Steven Baldwin, I think, was in it. That was the first time when I saw the idea of like, three people enjoying each other. To me, it seemed like a lot of work, and I’m way too jealous for all of that. I say hat’s off to people. Whatever makes you happy, do it. I just know that wouldn’t make me happy.
Tracy Peart
Me either.
Tracy Moore
I’m way too jealous for that. Yeah, I can’t.
Tracy Peart
I’m not jealous of the people doing it either. I just think that for me, I’m boring in a way. Like I’m an earth sign, as are you. And I want things to be sort of stable and steady and easy and sort of black and white and not a lot of fluidity and not a lot of question marks. That’s the way I like to live. I like things to be a sure thing. So if I’m married to you, I just want to make sure you’re the only one I’m married to, and I’m the only one you’re married to. But I also think the thing about a throuple is it goes beyond just it’s not just the sex thing, it’s beyond a threesome. It’s a relationship. So you are having the support of these two people in your life. And what we’re seeing right now is a lot of people are creating the families that they need. So platonic marriages where you are raising a child or a marriage between a heterosexual person and a gay person where you are parenting a child, everything is out there. Now. My thoughts on that are just do what works. We used to be a society where we understood this idea of having the village raise the kids. And I miss that. We miss that. I miss having people like my parents in our lives because of COVID. I understand now when I see people that have a multigenerational house, and they have the grandparents and the parents and the kids all in the same space, that used to look claustrophobic to me. And now I’m like, oh, they’re kind of lucky. So I feel like, make the family that works for you. But on the other half, this is also Hollywood. So who’s to know how long this thing is even going to last? This can just be a flash in the pan. Hollywood’s relationships don’t usually stand the test of time.
Tracy Moore
I just think people should do what they need to do and not worry about what other people think. Do what makes you happy. Because you know what? No one else is going to live your life for you. You can sit around worrying about what’s what the neighbor is going to think of what that person is going to think, of what that person is going to think. If it makes you happy, and you’re not harming anybody, that’s what’s important to me. As long as you’re not hurting anybody and everybody understands what’s going on and everybody has the same rule tools and so do what makes you happy. It’s just ain’t for me. That’s right. I’m just trying to get one man. Never mind. I’m not trying to have two people.
Tracy Peart
I feel you, girl. So if you’re looking for a throuple, have it. Have fun. Enjoy your throuple, everyone.
