About this episode

The episode explores the dynamics of living in a polygamous household with co-wives sharing one husband.

Welcome to the inaugural episode of The Real Co-wives of Lagos City! Our first guests of the season are co-wives, married to the same husband and living in the same household. What happens when your husband brings you a (pregnant) co-wife? We get into what it’s really like in a polygamous household and how it even began in the first place. We also learn how our co-wives manage tensions, children, sharing one man, and their personal relationship dynamics. We start off the episode with some really juicy dilemmas about marriage, but only under the conditions of relocation, dating as a plus-size woman and deciding to get married (or not) if you’re really broke.
