A wife, mother, and professional body piercer, Alexia defies societal expectations by embracing a polyandrous relationship. This captivating narrative unfolds in Maumee, Ohio, where Alexia, along with her husbands Doug and Jake, redefines the traditional family dynamic with love at its core.
In 2004, Alexia and Doug tied the knot, quickly expanding their family with the arrival of two sons, Skyler and Donovan. However, their story takes an unconventional turn when Alexia discovers romantic feelings for her best friend, Jake, in 2011. Rather than concealing her emotions, Alexia courageously shares her feelings with Doug, leading to a surprising and open-minded response.
Doug’s extraordinary response echoes the essence of their unconventional journey, stating, “As long as you still love me fully, then let’s see if we can make this work.” Thus, Alexia, Doug, and Jake embark on a unique journey of love and acceptance, challenging societal norms and embracing the concept that “three is not a crowd.”
In a symbolic ceremony in July 2016, Alexia solidified her bond with both Doug and Jake, creating a union that goes beyond traditional marriage norms. Though not legally binding, this ceremony signifies a commitment to love and unity, highlighting the strength of their unconventional family.
Alexia provides insight into the harmonious parenting dynamics within her polyandrous family. With Doug as the biological father, the children naturally refer to him as Dad. Jake, who entered their lives later, is addressed by his first name. The family’s open communication and acceptance create an environment where love knows no bounds.

In a testament to their unorthodox but loving family structure, both Doug and Jake were present in the delivery room, supporting Alexia during this significant moment.
