Chris Hemsworth is putting his health and family first since receiving some life-changing medical news. In a recent interview with Vanity Fair, the Thor: Love and Thunder star said he will be taking a break from acting after learning he has two copies of the APOE4 gene, which greatly increases his chances of developing Alzheimer’s disease.

We all show love in different ways in every kind of relationship in our lives — but for people in sexual relationships where physical intimacy is an important priority it can be easy to wonder if sex acts can count as a love language of their own. Gary Chapman (author of The Five Love Languages) breaks down the five love languages as the following: words of affirmation, quality time, receiving gifts, acts of service and physical touch....

Prince Harry is Meghan Markle’s fiercest defender when it comes to the royal family (AKA his family), and she’s certainly needed it. The British royal family is known for loving their traditions, and everything from a curtsy to a diamond ring is subject to scrutiny for how it differs from their rigidly enforced rules. So, while Harry is normally leaping to Meghan’s side when she’s accused of flouting convention by, say, opening her own car door, there was one social slip-up of Meghan’s that had even Harry a bit red around the ears....

Your grown-up bed may be a veritable cloud of high thread-count sheets, cozy comforters and pillows — but your baby’s bed needs none of that. In fact, until they’re a year old, babies should sleep with nothing in their crib but a tightly-fitted sheet. No bunting, blankets or bumpers. Even after a year, experts recommend limiting the items in a child’s crib to just one favorite stuffed animal or a light blanket....
