Some of the Rivera/Kahlo relationships worked that way, with them having mistresses they shared; or the rumours re: the Duke of Devonshire, Georgiana and Bess. I think it's the only way of keeping these things stable. Otherwise, the compartmentalisation of relationships (spouses, mistress, lover & c) is more humane and dignified.
