My wrestling moved in with my husband and me – they are mine now

A mom and her ex-husband, current husband, moved in with two children – saving money and saying they were both “amazingly”.

Megan Meyer, 25, married her ex-husband, Tyler, 25, for nearly four years, they had a little girl (three little girls), and the two broke up in late 2023.

She moved back to her hometown in California, where the divorce was being completed and eventually reconnected with her high school boyfriend Michael.

Just two months later, she was pregnant with Michael’s baby and three adults decided to move to the East Coast and in a separate apartment to the East Coast to help raise and share parents.

But the three eventually decided to move in together to save on rent costs – and have a common goal of owning a “family compound” with two homes on it.

Megan said that with her “brother-husband” dynamics, like any other roommate – in the upstairs bedroom with herself and Michael, Taylor sleeps in the garage.

Megan, a stay-at-home mom from Hiltonhead, South Carolina, said: “It was emotionally difficult to live together at first—now, we are all partners, always joking and playing video games together.

“Let me call them my ‘brother husband’ (like ‘sister wife’), it’s a joke inside us, even the name of our group chat.

“My ex and I agreed when we split, we wanted our daughter to have the most normal, mixed family she could possibly do.

“We don’t like to call it a broken home – I always want my ex and my one another to live.”

At the end of 2023, Megan and Tyler, who have been married since January 2020, decided to divorce after “growing up”.

Megan decided to move out of her family home in Tennessee and return to her hometown of California and surround herself with the support of her family and friends.

While she was there, she reconnected with an old boyfriend in high school – after meeting Taylor, she had nothing to do with her.

“We went ‘contactless’ because we’ve been four months in high school,” she said.

“It was a very public, dramatic breakup at the time – our pastor found out we were sleeping together and our families were not happy.

“But when I broke up with my ex, I contacted him – initially to seek job opportunities if he knew anyone he was hiring.

“He and his mom took me to work as a student supervisor and we slowly reconnected and started meeting each other.”

Two months after dating each other, Megan and Michael discovered a child in November 2023.

Although they weren’t in a “formal” relationship at the time, Meghan said they couldn’t ignore their feelings between them and decided to make it a couple.

“It feels like I’m in a tornado – everything happens so quickly,” she said.

“Things are going too fast due to my ‘stupidity’, but we drove the beautiful son away, so I have no regrets.”

At the time, Megan and Tyler’s daughters split the time evenly between the two houses – a week in Tennessee and a week in California.

Taylor initially proposed moving to California to make co-parenting easier—but three co-parents, including Michael, were compromised in a brand new relocation to the East Coast.

They initially agreed to own their own separate apartment in South Carolina, but moved in for two months and realized it would be expensive to separate.

“Financial becomes unbearable – Early May [2024]when I hesitantly asked if we could move in together, I put my daughter in the ex’s place.

“My current husband has been suggesting for a while – but I kept telling him it was ‘crazy’ and it wasn’t what people do.

“I came to us with a place idea, but our own space – to my surprise, Taylor said ‘Yes.’.

“We had a group chat, sent each other properties, and we found the townhouse we liked.”

In July 2024, the new family moved into the new home.

Megan and Michael’s son is now five months old and was born in August 2024.

Agree Taylor would sleep in the garage bedroom, while Megan and Michael would have a room upstairs.

While the family has now become a “good dynamic”, Meghan said it was difficult to deal with her breakup at first.

“It’s not complicated – but it’s emotionally exhausted at first,” she said.

“By the time I moved in, I was nine months pregnant – by August, my postpartum mood was everywhere.

“Sometimes, I’m angry at what happened to me and my ex – something he says or does triggers that feeling.

“I also feel intimate about how fast my current husband is.”

Even though Megan and Tyler made a tough start, she said they were all well together.

They even had a tedious routine that enriched – Megan cared for the kids and weakened the house while the “two guys” took out the trash and washed the dishes.

Now, the plan is to let five families live in one family – Megan, Michael, Tyler and his new partner live in separate houses.

“We are in an absolute housing crisis,” Megan said.

“We want our daughter to have a yard, a pool and space to explore.

“We would be happy to get a large property and have two houses – so our daughters can move freely between them.

“A normal place – we don’t have to go through the reception process.”

“Some of the advantages of living together include more good times with my daughter and her witnessing a healthy relationship between us,” Taylor said.

“We have less time though – I have to share my sofa more than I want.

“There is no embarrassment between us at all – unless we are all arguing on TV time.

“My new partner is excited to join the circus, she loves dynamics, how much we are willing to sacrifice for the kids.”

Michael said: “My parents are divorced, so I haven’t experienced a complete family setup myself – but I always hope to be prepared for my family one day.

“Even if this living situation is awkward for some people, it is now for all of us.

“I feel good – sometimes my wife and her ex look at each other so I don’t need to worry!

“I believe both of them, I will love my wife.

“Of course, I don’t want anyone to get divorced; but, if possible, is a busy person for the kids.”
