A married couple with two kids said the secret to their happy marriage - is dating OTHER people.

Jessica Levity, 35 and Joseph Daylover, 40, were monogamous for years until a pal mentioned polyamory - having multiple partners.

She convinced her soon-to-be husband to give it a go just before their wedding - and they've been dating other people ever since.

Eight years on, producer Jessica and university lecturer Joseph said it's the "best decision" they ever made - and they even go on double dates.

They both often date multiple people outside their marriage at one time - dedicating a night a week each where they can let loose away from home.

The loved-up couple have had around 20 other boyfriends and girlfriends between them - and once even shared the same girlfriend.

Joseph currently has one other long-term partner - end-of-life doula Lore Hempstock, 33.
