TLC is set to delve into the world of polyamory with its upcoming reality series, Polyfamily, which will premiere on Tuesday, April 29 at 10 p.m.
The show offers an intimate and thought-provoking look at the dynamics of love, loyalty, and modern family structures. Polyfamily follows two married couples—Alysia and Tyler, and Sean and Taya—who live together in a unique, closed quad. In this unconventional setup, Tyler is romantically involved with Taya, while Sean is dating Alysia. Together, they are navigating the complexities of polyamory, raising four children with another on the way, and redefining what it means to be a family.
In a trailer for the show, Sean explains, “A closed quad is four people, us — we’re only dating within ourselves and married within ourselves. We don’t have any outside partners.” Tyler humorously adds, “Like everybody else, right?”
The series will explore the journey of these individuals, who never initially set out to live a polyamorous lifestyle but realized that loving more than one person could work for them. Alysia notes, “We could love more than one person and make our own rules as to what we want our family to look like.”
A significant twist revealed in the trailer is Taya’s pregnancy, though the identity of the father remains a mystery. Taya jokes, “Since the guys switch rooms every night, we don’t know who the fathers of the younger boys are,” before adding, “I can assure you, it is one of two people!”
Polyfamily is produced by Figure 8 Films and will air on TLC, offering viewers a chance to explore an alternative family structure in a world that continues to redefine love and relationships.
