Can Husband and Wife Speak Lashon Hara With One Another?

16 Dec 2008

Question: Someone once told me of a rabbi who claimed that since man and wife are really one unit that it is permissible for them to speak lashon hara with one another. Is this true?

Answer: Man and wife must also fulfill the halachoth which prohibit lashon hara when speaking to one another.
