The first polyamorous family in
California to put all three dads on the same birth certificate has opened up about life as a parenting ‘throuple’.
Doctor Ian Jenkins, 45, and his partners Alan Mayfield and Jeremy Allen Hodges, from San Diego, made legal history in 2017 when a judge agreed to put them all on the birth certificate of daughter Piper, now 3, paving the way for other polyamorous families to gain greater legal recognition in the US.
They now also have a 14-month-old son, Parker. The children are half-siblings born using an egg donor and a surrogate.
