Both fans and haters are responding in force to Chrissy Teigen’s lengthy Instagram post yesterday. In the social media share, Teigen opened up about her mental health struggles after being “cancelled” amid cyber bullying allegations. Teigen recently experienced serious backlash for tweets from her past in which she targeted a then-teenage Courtney Stodden. She’s also been accused of harassing many others with hateful messages and comments. In Teigen’s new post, she shared a photo of her legs in a pair of ripped jeans as she lounged on the couch....

It’s a fact that many may be surprised to learn about her, but Emily Blunt has a stutter. In fact, it was so severe growing up that she couldn’t even say her own name if called on in class. But kicking off an honest conversation in a new interview, Blunt opens up about why being a stutterer isn’t a weakness — rather, the Quiet Place star says it has made her a more empathetic person and, in a way, is the reason she has a career in acting to begin with....

We’re coming off a year where, for many moms, just getting through the day was a goal. Keeping up with daily family to-dos that normally would go unremarked upon suddenly deserved a gold star — and if we didn’t keep up? Well, that called for giving ourselves some grace. And Gabrielle Union-Wade is proving to be #momgoals on both counts. The actress, author, activist, and mom knows that it was a hard year for parents in general — and moms in particular — to keep every plate spinning, which is why her family decided to participate in a public health campaign called Don’t Skip, which is encouraging families to get back on track with well-visits and recommended vaccines for kids....

Are you, like us, facing the fact that the New Year’s Eves of yore (you know, going out to party past midnight with actual humans outside your home, drinking your way to a new year and waking up the next morning with only a vague idea of what year it actually is) are behind you? Have you, like us, been largely at home with kids for what seems like forever? Are the only bottles you pop full of … milk?...

To be honest, we are getting so used to stories about random people shaming mothers for whatever they’re doing to raise their kids, that it’s actually more shocking to see that mom Meghan King’s most recent update on her son Hart has received no such shaming. Well, not that we know of, anyway, since she’s just shared it on Instagram Stories. The possibly controversial-but-shouldn’t-be parenting issue? Thumb-sucking, and how to stop it....

Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex officially became a member of the royal family on May 19, 2018, when she walked (herself) down the aisle toward blushing groom Prince Harry. Less than two years later, Meghan and Harry have exited the royal family and started a new life split between North America and the UK, citing a desire for their son Archie to grow up without the same scrutiny and criticism Meghan faced as a royal....

Barack and Michelle Obama have always inspired us with their relationship, one built on mutual respect, admiration, and total trust that their family comes first. But in new Netflix documentary Becoming, released on May 6, the former First Lady is getting exceptionally candid about aspects of their love life we never knew much about — first, their whirlwind college romance, then the tough reckoning that came years later in marriage counseling....

Which would you rather have: A partner who doesn’t help you care for your children, or no partner at all? This is the awful choice one new mother is facing — as many before her have faced as well — unless her husband comes to his senses and steps up with their 2-week-old daughter. Her Reddit post about the situation is equal parts infuriating and heartbreaking. “He was great for the first four days,” creep00000 wrote in the AITA subreddit of her husband of four years....

Is anyone else in awe of moms like Reese Witherspoon, who have kids in their early 20s? Drew Barrymore says she was, back when Witherspoon’s kids were young. On the second episode of The Drew Barrymore Show Tuesday, the actor-producers talked about their friendship, which started when they were teenagers, and how even as successful women, motherhood can be scary. “I was so amazed by you being this young mother who was able to take all that on,” Barrymore told her friend, admitting that the idea of motherhood intimidated her when she was in her 20s; Witherspoon, meanwhile, became a mom at only 22....

In 2018, 10.3 million people misused prescription opioids, according to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Of those, 47,600 died from an overdose — which averages to more than 130 people dying from an opioid-related drug overdose every single day. The opioid crisis we’re facing today is one of the worst addiction epidemics in history. By now you’re probably well-versed in the origin of this story: In 1996, Purdue Pharma began to manufacture OxyContin and then heavily marketed the drug to doctors as a chronic pain reliever for non-cancer patients....
