Family

Justin Timberlake once said in an interview that he didn’t have a normal childhood. And it’s true, he started working at a very young age. At first, it was Star Search and The Mickey Mouse Club. Later, as a teenager, he joined the legendary boy band NSYNC. For his difficult childhood, the star in no way blames his mother, who took him to all available auditions. On the contrary, he thanks her. Still, Timberlake does everything he can to make sure that his children don’t suffer the same fate.

When you look at the stars shining on the red carpets, it sometimes seems like they achieved their success easily. However, this is not true for Tom Cruise. He worked everywhere he could from the age of 11 to help his mother and 3 sisters. And later, as a famous actor, he proudly brought his mother to movie premieres and took care of her for decades. After all, she was the one who saw his talent first, pushed him toward acting, and was a true support in Tom’s life.

Raising a child isn’t easy. So it’s not uncommon for new parents to ask other family members for support, especially in the early days. This is exactly what a Reddit user did: she asked her mother to look after her newborn baby. But the grandmother’s reaction left her mildly bewildered.

Cláudia Raia managed to conceive a baby naturally at 55, even though she was going through menopause. It’s very close to the world record since the oldest natural pregnancy was registered at the age of 59. This rarely happens and has substantial health risks. But the actress was lucky — she had a healthy boy, and the parents are thrilled.

Sometimes it seems that the parenting methods of our parents are as different from modern ones as night and day. However, in reality, love and loyalty to family are timeless concepts. For example, Katherine Schwarzenegger decided to raise her daughters with Chris Pratt exactly like her own parents did. She even takes out her old childhood books and toys. And Katherine knows what she’s doing. After all, this kind of upbringing brought her own family together so tightly that she still talks to her sister almost every day.

Allora Campbell is 32 years old, lives in New York, works for a biotechnology company, and writes books at night. The charming young woman likes gardening, traveling, dogs, superhero stories, and reads any fiction she can get her hands on. Also, until recently, Allora had never been kissed and had avoided dating like the plague.

Molly-Mae Hague is a British Influencer. In 2019, she took part in the reality show Love Island, where she met her partner, Tommy Fury. The pair made it to the finals and got 2nd place, but the big prize for them was their new-found love. Molly-Mae and Tommy soon began living together, and in September 2022, they announced they were expecting their first child.

It’s not easy to meet the person who can become your true soulmate. That’s why people love finding out about someone who’s been lucky enough to do so, so they can feel happy for them. One such example is actress Lily Collins; she met Charles at work and from that moment knew that he was the one.

When Hunter Nelson posted a video on TikTok in which she revealed that she had become a mom to 15-year-old Gracie at the age of 21, her post quickly racked up millions of views. Many people genuinely wondered how she managed to have a baby at the age of six.

When Meg Ryan, the renowned queen of romantic comedies, suddenly disappeared from the screens, many blamed it on the actress’ latest failed projects. But Ryan says fame and success kept her from realizing herself and living life to the fullest. So she left the film industry without any regrets, going on to raise two children in peace and do what she loves without drawing too much attention to herself.

Hollywood seems like a modern fairy tale where celebrities find love, build a family, and live happily ever after. But this way of life doesn’t protect against painful losses, including losing a spouse. And it’s important when our favorite stars talk about living through grief after losing someone they loved to convince us that we’re not alone.

Adopting a child is not easy, and the process can be even more complicated if the child in question has special needs. But Jocelyn and Troy decided to take this step. One adopted child changed everything. The Piper family adopted Nolan, followed by Francis, and then Oaklynn, generously sharing love with them and striving to make the kids’ life better.

Whether you’re a parent or not, reading Tweets from dads is a pleasure. Full of humor and wit, these spot-on stories honestly reveal what being a dad is all about. Trying (and failing) to understand kids’ logic, not knowing how to answer the simplest of their questions, and being puzzled by their sharp comments — it looks like there are many challenges these dads are battling. And we are glad they’re sharing every step of the way with us. We laughed out loud when reading these 20 stories, and we hope they’ll brighten up your day too.

Any breakup, especially after a long relationship, leaves permanent scars on our souls. We can keep paying attention to them and keep picking at old wounds, or we can treat this painful period of our lives as a lesson and the start of a new phase. The latter is exactly what Maria Shriver did. After her divorce from Arnold Schwarzenegger, she was able to maintain the strong family they had built and rise above past disagreements and resentments.

Chrissy Teigen recently became a mom for the third time. And although they say it gets easier each time, the model isn’t even thinking about relaxing. After all, she even gave up attending the Grammy Awards to spend time with her newborn daughter. After years of struggling with infertility, the star has clearly put family at the top of her priority list.

Some celebrity couples look so suited to each other that it seems they’ve always been together, even though many of them have come a long way to find their soulmates. Some previous celebrity romances have long been forgotten, while others may not have been known about at all, even by their loyal fans. But it’s always interesting to see who our idols dated before they found The One.

Over the past decade, Daniel Craig has gone from being a talented British actor to an internationally renowned movie star. However, he doesn’t enjoy all the aspects of fame. Craig and his wife, Rachel Weisz, try to hide as many personal details as possible from the public eye and are determined to give their offspring a normal childhood. And as for their multimillion-dollar fortune, they want to find a more appropriate use for it than simply passing it on to the next generation.

Pink recently spoke about how people in the music industry didn’t support her decision to start a family. She talked about how her childhood and time in the music industry affected her choice to have kids in an interview with Zane Lowe on Apple Music.

The family of actor Bruce Willis said he has a type of dementia called frontotemporal dementia or FTD. They shared the news on Thursday and said it’s hard, but they’re relieved to know what’s causing his symptoms. In 2022, Bruce Willis’ family (including his wife Emma Heming Willis, ex-wife Demi Moore, and his daughters) announced that he had aphasia and a medical condition that was affecting his thinking. He took a break from acting because of it.

Before having a child, many couples study countless amounts of literature on child psychology and child care. However, there are always pitfalls that cannot be predicted in advance. For example, the unique phrases or conclusions made by kids, creative life hacks for taming them, as well as unforeseen reasons for hurt feelings.
