According to Mo’Nique, she and her husband Sidney Hicks have an open marriage. In a New York Times profile, she mentions that,
We have an agreement that we’ll always be honest, and if sex happens with another person, that’s not a deal breaker for us, that’s not something where we’ll have to say, ‘Oh God, we’ve got to go to divorce court because you cheated on me.’ Because we don’t cheat.
She repeated this view later on The Oprah Winfrey Show when she said that, in her prior marriages, she was constantly searching for “that extra oomph”. Mo’Nique explained,
When I said I had an open marriage, people automatically jumped to sex. They automatically went there. But I’ve been best friends with my husband since we were 14 years old. When we say open, we’re very honest. There are no secrets. Oftentimes you have people that are married, but they’re strangers, and we refuse to be those people.
She concluded, “I’ve had to sneak and I’ve had to lie, and I don’t want to do that anymore. But my husband is so awesome and so fine and so—oh, girl…No other man can compare”.
