All the close friends and family members gathered for dinner in a tent under the evergreens by the lake.

The media person wrote an article titled "What's inside an open marriage?" on CNN on 9 June 2015, in which she revealed that she discussed "open marriage" with her husband. Mel, who believes that having a physical contact has nothing to do with open marriage, said its a personal choice at the end of a day whether a person decides to sleep with opposite sex outside their marriage or is living with one partner for the rest of their life.
The couple did consider an open marriage as an honest, open-minded medium to live a committed relationship. But the TV host later realized that you are not only having an intimate relationship with outsider but also inviting them into their whole life. She also revealed that idea of having an outsider having access to her life and family scared her and her husband. In the end, she concluded that their marriage remains closed in spite of Sunday New York Times magazine's cover "The Virtues of Infidelity's claims that cheating strengthens marriage.
