Greg and Kim Warner (Anthony Clark and Jean Louisa Kelly) stress about conforming to “conventional” standards, while Kim’s sister (Liza Snyder) and her husband (Mike O’Malley) take a much more laid-back approach....

Because humans are social, communicative critters, it makes sense that we want to share parts of our lives (including the intimate ones) with people we care about. As we grow into a more sex positive, accepting and generally less prudish culture, too, it’s a lot harder for the old reliable “don’t kiss and tell” rules to define how we talk about our sex lives in the year of our lord 2020....

Like many LGBTQ+ Americans, I spent this past Sunday morning nursing a heavy feeling in my heart. My girlfriend broke the news to me as I brought us coffee in bed: Overnight, there had been a mass shooting at Club Q, a gay bar in Colorado Springs, Colorado. Five people were dead; more than a dozen were injured. My mind immediately went to two of our good friends, a gay couple who had come to stay with us in our Brooklyn apartment just days earlier....

Most people who have been pregnant have memories of when their “condition” made things rather uncomfortable, or downright awful, and they couldn’t tell anyone why. For most of us, it’s getting woozy in the office, or feeling awkward at a party where everyone’s drinking. For Gigi Hadid, it was being nauseous on multiple runway during a month of Fashion Weeks while all eyes were on her. Not often do we feel sorry for super models, but we will make this exception....

Right now, former Vice President Joe Biden has a very strong lead in national polls among Black voters, and is holding on tight to his front-runner status before the Democratic presidential primaries begin. I am not here to sway anyone one way or another on that front, I assure you. I am merely here to give you a parenting perspective on the man’s words about poor, Black parents. Specifically, I’m pretty pissed off about what Biden said to the New York Times editorial board in an interview this week....

The 55th Academy of Country Music Awards hosted by Keith Urban will air live Wednesday, September 16 on CBS — and for the first time in the show’s history, the ACM Awards will broadcast from three iconic country music venues including the Grand Ole Opry House, Nashville’s historic Ryman Auditorium, and The Bluebird Cafe. The annual show will look a little bit different this year due to the coronavirus pandemic. Aside from not having a traditional red carpet, there will also not be an audience....

If there’s any celeb we would expect to take, say, a global pandemic in stride and remain unruffled as she quarantines in style, gardening and smoothie-making with her kids, it’s the always-poised working mom Lauren Conrad. And lo and behold, Conrad is meeting those expectations and exceeding them; this designer/actor/entrepreneur/lifestyle icon is even taking this moment to launch her first line of kids clothing, Kohl’s Little Co. by Lauren Conrad, this week....

“Douchebag,” I laughed while pushing my husband playfully. I don’t even remember what he said; I know it was something that a cocky gym bro would say in seriousness, but he was saying it as a joke. His comment didn’t stick with me, but ya know what’s seared into my brain? The lispy, squeaky, sweet voice of my beautiful baby girl, not quite three years old, giggling, “Daddy, you a douchebag!...

Sarah Ferguson is busy making the rounds promoting her new book, Her Heart for a Compass, but it’s shining the spotlight back on an old topic that seems to keep circling the royal family: Jeffrey Epstein. While much of the talk surrounding the convicted pedophile is with Prince Andrew, Ferguson does have her own complicated history with the sex offender. The former royal has gone through some notoriously public issues with financial debt, including owing her former personal assistant, Johnny O’Sullivan over $100,000 in salary....

Shay Mitchell remembers the moment she decided to expand her travel bags and accessories company, BÉIS, into the baby category. The new mom was still pregnant with her now-four-month-old daughter, Atlas, at the time, trolling the internet and asking her mom friends for their best diaper bag recommendations. “So many of the BÉIS products and designs have been inspired by [either] the challenges that I have faced in my own life and travels when buying travel bags and accessories, or ‘holes’ I have discovered in the market offerings when searching for a bag that suits my needs,” Mitchell tells SheKnows....

Utensil holders certainly aren’t the star of any kitchen decor, but they do serve an essential purpose in the kitchen: they keep commonly used cooking implements right at hand. The simple design, even if it’s just a white ceramic crock or simple metal canister, can help make a kitchen feel lived-in and inviting — even more so if you forgo mismatched whisks and spatulas and opt for a beautiful wooden spoon collection, for example, or get all matching implements....
