Tuesday, 15th December, Lima: the man with 6 wives

What follows is an account of one of our most fascinating interviews so far. This project is about celebration and not judgement, so I’m going to detail the encounter entirely objectively and you can make of it, learn from it, take from it what you will.
There is a well-known figure here in Peru called Ricardo Badani. He is well-known because he has 6 wives.
Unlike the Mormon Fundamentalists in Utah with similar numbers of wives, the Badani family has no children. It is just the 7 of them, living together in a big house about an hour outside Lima.
