A man from Stuttgart loves three women – and they all live happily together under one roof. They comment on this in several documentaries.
Stuttgart – “Where love falls – every couple is different” is the name of the documentary series, the new episode of which will be broadcast on Vox on Friday (February 11, 8:15 p.m.). A relationship that appears in it is not a couple at all: Jadu from Stuttgart loves three women, all of whom live under one roof with their children. “Polyamory” is the technical term.
Stuttgart: Man loves three women – all live together
Vox accompanies the love quartet from Stuttgart in the episode from 11.2. while looking for a new home together. Jadu and his three friends run a Forró house for Brazilian couple dance in Stuttgart (more Stuttgart news at bw24.de). It is not the first time that the family has been a topic in the media. The BR has just reported about it like the Stuttgarter Zeitung . And in October 2021, SWR dedicated an episode of the series “Alles Liebe!” to her model at the time. The title was: “A man loves several women – polyamory”. And in it, the participants then also told how everything works.
The man’s name is Jadu (31 years old at the time of the SWR documentary), comes from Brazil, came to Germany in 2009 and was already the father of seven in the SWR documentary. His partners are Tinatin (26), Clara (27) and Imogen (35). From his point of view, Jadu describes the sticking point in the current love models: “The point is that cheating is seen as something illegal. Let’s just legalize this. That it’s not so wrong when you do that when something like this happens, but that it’s okay. That’s how we did it.”
Of course, the whole thing is not completely uncomplicated. “If we’re all in the same room and he says ‘cupid,’ you don’t know, well, which one?” says Imogen. And further: “I have the feeling that people think just because we have an open relationship with each other, so that everyone just does what they want.”
You and your model may well be met with surprise – or even skepticism or rejection. “I think a lot about what others might think about me and about us, and it’s slowly getting better now,” says Clara. She talks about “the fear of perhaps being rejected by society or by relatives, for example. You have to be able to stand over it well.” Tinatin, on the other hand, is less concerned, as she says.
Stuttgart: Jealousy is still an issue in a polyamorous family
A question that many are sure to ask when it comes to polyamory: Is jealousy not an issue? Oh but! When Clara came along and Tinatin was already very close to Jadu, “I had to work through a lot,” says Tinatin. “I was very jealous, of course.” And Clara also admits: “Well, there are moments when I get jealous. When I can’t understand situations well, for example.” At other times, it’s no longer an issue for Tinatin, she says: “If he meets a beautiful person, then I’m happy for him.”
A sentence from Tinatin that might explain why it works for them: “We just love each other and that’s the most beautiful thing there is”. The quotes above all come from the SWR documentary from October 2021. But the unusual love lasts – and the Vox viewers can now watch them looking for an apartment. This apartment offer in Munich should leave many speechless. (lin) *tz.de and bw24.de are offers from IPPEN.MEDIA.
