Who are Eliza and Mike?

Eliza and Mike are newlyweds based in Los Angeles with a long dating history. Eliza has a strong desire to have multiple husbands and is willing to change her lifestyle. Mike confesses to feeling jealous, but he's ready to support Eliza's interest in polyandry. Eliza and Mike fell in love at first sight and they were inseparable as soon as they met, but a heated line dance and a shocking revelation rocked their relationship.

In a sneak peek obtained by People, Eliza had revealed in a confessional that she had "cheated" on Mike while they were dating and the "intense" connection she had with the other man left her confused. It was difficult for the couple to overcome her infidelity, and they eventually had to decide whether they wanted to pursue multiple partners. Opening up about the topic Mike said, "We've both established we wanted to continue our relationship." He also added "So, that was big step No 1: We do want to continue this thing. The big step No 2 is, How to want this relationship to look moving forward?" Mike also shared that he read a lot of psychology and dating books before he opened up to the idea of polygamy. Now the couple is looking to add a third partner to their relationship.
