It is estimated that one out of every four American couples sleep separately. The reasons for couples sleeping separately include one partner having a sleep disorder such as sleep apnea or restless leg syndrome, differing sleep schedules or even different preferences regarding television watching or technology usage in the bedroom. The trend of couples sleeping separately is projected to increase, and some experts predict that 60% of custom homes will soon be made with dual master bedrooms.
