Romance could get complicated for monogamous people. Polyamorous partners would negotiate new agreements about duplicates. Marriage as an institution would probably dissolve due to impracticality; it would be equivalent to a series of divorces and remarriages with each duplication, and two-partners-per-marriage would be a weird constraint.
Resource constraints are certainly an issue; the fairest way seems like pre-allocating a subset of resources to each duplicate who in turn can do the same. Societal restrictions on creating a duplicate with too few resources would prevent effective slavery or abject poverty.
