Two stars locked in a binary orbit of 24hrs.

Yes, two stars moving around each other every 24 hrs, with a third locked in their embrace a bit further away. This scenario was documented here:

Quite an interesting read, thanks for that!

Three-body systems aren't stable; long term the orbits are chaotic and of them will be ejected. And as the article suggests something else occurred long ago to create this configuration, probably a close encounter with another star.

That's why there aren't many of these at any cosmological time.
