See mother upset by the triplets

Ross

I believe the answer is:

threesome

'the triplets' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'see mother upset' is the wordplay.
'upset' indicates an anagram.
'see'+'mother'='seemother'
'seemother' with letters rearranged gives 'THREESOME'.

'by' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for threesome that I've seen before include "Trio" , "a crowd, perhaps" , "Chekhov's sisters" , "Small group of people" , "Triad" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Independent.
