Wilson had previously told PEOPLE that she was in a relationship after meeting someone through a set-up by a friend, but didn’t say who her new romantic interest was or hint that it was a woman.“I think going through the process of finding more self-worth, I think that what you want in a partner is elevated and so it’s great to have someone who feels like an equal partner and be in a healthy relationship,” she said at the time.Agruma’s Instagram, which is private, lists her as the founder of Lemon Ve Limon, a Los Angeles-based clothing brand.

My Policeman, is here and let’s just say we are ready to be cuffed and arrested, Officer Harry!Amazon dropped two stills from the highly anticipated adaptation featuring Styles, Emma Corrin, and David Dawson earlier this morning, giving fans just the tiniest sliver of something to hold on to while they eagerly await the movie’s fall release.One picture shows Styles and Corrin grinning at one another in a pool, while the other offers a little more of a hint at the tension at the core of the story — all three of the film’s leads stand in an art exhibit, the two men presumably studying a museum piece as Corrin’s character, Marion, seems to suspiciously eye Dawson as he explains the work. My Policeman is based on a 2012 novel by Bethan Roberts, set in 1950s Brighton.

It’s bad enough that Harry Potter and the Cursed Child’s New York City and San Francisco Twitter accounts wished everyone a “Happy Pride Month” this week, but the even more tone deaf decision to use the Progress Pride flag, which incorporates the trans Pride colors into the rainbow spectrum, sent the internet into a tailspin.The play’s author, JK Rowling, has firmly established that she is no friend to the trans community, regularly attacking their rights. Her repeated attacks have caused many LGBTQ Harry Potter fans to turn their backs on the franchise altogether.Several commenters rose to the occasion with inspired responses, such as these ideas for Harry’s next big adventure:Harry Potter and the Audacity of This Shit.— King Kitt, Sunshine Goblin (@IndustrialPet) June 7, 2022Harry potter and the Lack of Situational Awareness https://t.co/WidBOEFPKD— ?????ZR1NZ03?????

Democrats over their push to restrict guns for Americans under 21 years of age in comparison to what she said were their views on age and parental consent when it comes to gender transition procedures.While speaking during a House session on gun legislation Thursday, Michigan Representative Lisa McClain said that she needs her Second Amendment rights to protect her children because of "soft on crime" policies in the U.S. Seemingly referencing House-passed legislation that would raise the age requirement for purchasing semiautomatic firearms from 18 to 21, she said that Democrats are "making the claim" that those who can't purchase cigarettes or alcohol also "shouldn't be able to buy an AR-15.""But let's talk about a couple of things that the Democrats feel you are mature enough to do under the age of 18, because once again, their standards clearly aren't consistent," McClain said.

Seeing as a man who admitted to killing his wife with flower pot won his GOP primary from a prison cell in Indiana last month, it seems getting arrested isn’t quite the political career killer it once was.That must be comforting to Michigan gubernatorial candidate Ryan Kelley, who was arrested on Thursday morning as the FBI raided his home.Kelley, who blew his “groomer” hysteria dog whistle especially hard when he vowed to charge Michigan school boards with felonies if they failed to remove ‘sexually explicit content’ from classrooms, was arrested “on misdemeanor charges stemming from the Jan. 6, 2021 Capitol breach,” and is to appear in federal court in Grand Rapids Thursday, according to the U.S.

nerves are overwhelming, it’s time to tackle them. So, how do we do that? You’re about to do something new – what if instead of viewing that as a scary thing, you see it as exciting? ‘Try to focus on the positives.

Families are changing, and the idea that households must conform to a nuclear unit is on the way out.According to the ONS, 15.4% of UK families have a lone parent, and the number of cohabiting unmarried couples has risen by a fifth in the last decade.There are also over 212,000 same-sex families – up a whopping 40% since 2015 – with LGBT+ parents representing a large proportion of adoptions and fostering.We know from our own experiences that raising happy, well-adjusted children has nothing to do with your sexuality or relationship status, and everything to do with the love and care you give them. However, the ‘talking point’ that young people will be disadvantaged by not having both male and female role models in their lives continues to rear its head.This refrain is often used negatively to suggest that only heterosexual couples are equipped to be parents.
