The only pic you will find is of Jenny, who uses her maiden name. She refers to her husband as "Christopher", but that's not his real name.
I don't see anywhere that says her husband is still with Lisbeth.
In Block's article for tangomag, she explicit stated that after a while the relationship with Lisbeth died out, and Chris hasn't slept with anyone else since.

Are you sure you read the link I provided earlier?
It was done by the San Francisco Chronicle on July 10, 2008 (last week).
It states:
"They started by having a threesome with a female friend named Lisbeth. After a while, Lisbeth wanted to have sex only with Christopher. Block and her husband learned to overcome jealousy, which Block says is a socially learned emotion, not a biologically innate one. Now the couple can have relationships, from one-night stands to long-term affairs, with other people. Christopher has been with just Lisbeth in the years since they went open, while Block has had several relationships and is now with her long-term girlfriend, Jemma.'

I think that pretty much sums it up.
Yes, I read it. But it is ambiguous in wording. "has been with just Lisbeth" can mean that she's the only one he's been with, or it can mean they've been together all this time. Without more details, I can't say for sure which it is.

He has been with JUST Lisbeth means that he's not had other lovers besides Lisbeth and his wife.
ETA: Now do you see where her husband is still with Lisbeth?

I tend towards having to agree with this statement. I do believe it is ambigious. The first article, though written prior to the second, does state that the relationship with Lisbeth died out after a while. The second does state that Christopher was "just" with Lisbesth since they went open. To my interpretation of the reading, it means that after going open Christopher never pursued anything with anyone else other than Lisbeth. However, as per the first article, that died out after a while. I just don't see where it clearly states anywhere that he is still with or continuing a relatonship with Lisbeth. Only that he was with her and no one else, while Jenny continues on with other relationships.
I guess it all falls down on manner of interpretation. But unless it is clearly stated, it is hard to determine if one interpretation is more correct than the other.
