Parent strangely right as lover (7)
I believe the answer is:
partner
'lover' is the definition.
(lover can mean a romantic or sexual partner)
'parent strangely right' is the wordplay.
'strangely' is an anagram indicator.
'right' becomes 'r' (common abbreviation).
'parent' anagrammed gives 'partne'.
'partne'+'r'='PARTNER'
'as' is the link.
(Other definitions for partner that I've seen before include "Colleague, bedfellow" , "Associate, in business or private life" , "Husband or wife" , "Ally" , "Mate or collaborator" .)
