Brittany Mahomes Takes Kids to Peppa Pig Theme Park: 'Happiest Kiddos'

8 March 2025 at 11:37

Brittany Mahomes and her children β€œhad a time” recently while visiting the Peppa Pig Theme Park in Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas.

Brittany shared a series of photos featuring the mom of three and her oldest children, Sterling and Bronze, during the trio’s trip to the park in her Instagram Stories on Friday, March 7.

In the first Story, she shared a collage of photos featuring herself holding Bronze, the threesome enjoying a boat ride and herself and Sterling posing for a photo with a real-life Peppa the Pig.

It also looked like the family was joined by several other young children in the second Story, Sterling posed with a group of girls.

Bronze might not have had the best time throughout the entire outing, though. β€œHe rode the roller coaster one time but had to close his eyes,” Brittany captioned a photo of the toddler with his hands over his face.

She later added a photo of both children holding hands, as well as a video of Sterling and a friend on a merry-go-round type ride.

On Wednesday, March 5, Brittany told her followers on the platform that they shouldn’t expect to see her youngest baby’s face, Golden, β€œfor a while” after her trainer Betina Gozo Shimonek appeared to show a glimpse of the newborn in a video. Brittany gave birth to Golden on January 12 and shares all three children with her husband, Patrick Mahomes.

In the video, Shimonek said she was on β€œtriple duty” while training Brittany, watching her own daughter and minding Golden. β€œI think I need to clarify, Golden is in the stroller 🀣 you can’t see her and won’t for a while 🀣😘,” Brittany wrote on her own Instagram Story at the time, after fans speculated as to whose child was whose. β€œThat is Makoa [Shimonek’s son] in the bouncer 🀣.”

After the couple welcomed Golden to the family, Patrick was asked if the pair would consider adding a fourth child. β€œ[I’m] good with three [kids] for right now,” he said at a press conference in January. β€œMy goal was always three, so we’ve had three. We’ll stick there for a while and see if we need to come back and get another one later on.”

Of course, that doesn’t mean the pair are definitely finished having children. β€œI said three and I’m done,” he said in July 2024. β€œI always wanted to have kids young. I got to grow up in a locker room, and it made such an impact in my life. We’re on our third kid now. … Brittany does a great job of doing that and we still go out and enjoy our life.”

Meghan Markle shared a rare glimpse of her husband, Prince Harry, bonding with daughter Lilibet.

In the image, Harry, 40, pressed a kiss to Lilibet’s head, as the toddler sat in his lap. The pair were seated on a boat, with Lilibet, 3, turned away from the camera. (Harry and Meghan, 43, are also parents to son Archie, 5.)

Harry rocked a white T-shirt and blue-and-white striped shorts, a blue backwards baseball cap and a pair of black sunglasses. Lilibet wore a pink T-shirt and floral leggings with her hair styled in a half-up, half-down look.

β€œHappy International Women’s Day!” Meghan captioned a carousel of images via Instagram on Saturday, March 8. β€œCelebrating the strong women around us & the girls with dreams who will become women with vision. Also thanking those who uplift us every day.”

In addition to the sweet image of the father-daughter duo, Meghan also shared an image of Harry embracing her from behind as the couple walked along the beach. In another pic, Meghan smiled for a selfie with her mom, Doria Ragland.

Meghan’s tribute comes less than a week after the launch of her Netflix series, With Love, Meghan. In an interview with People published on Saturday, a crew member shared that Harry and their two children showed their support for Meghan on set during filming.

β€œWhenever Harry visited set, he was always super polite and friendly. But it was clear he wanted this to be Meghan’s moment to shine,” the crew member told the publication, adding that Meghan was β€œsuper attentive and doting” on their kids. β€œWe would give them headphones so they could listen to audio.”

In the eight-episode series, Meghan shared numerous tips from cooking to hosting and received visits from various famous guests, including a brief cameo from Harry. After hugging a group at the brunch part, Harry embraced his wife with several kisses. β€œWell done! You did a great job,” Harry told Meghan. β€œI love it.”

While reflecting on her connection to Harry, Meghan gushed that the pair make an effort to keep their romance alive by showing up for each other β€œin the ways big and small.”

β€œLife is full of surprises. I did not expect to meet H and for this to be our love story. I’m very lucky,” Meghan said on the Thursday, March 6, episode of The Drew Barrymore Show. β€œI’m married to the funniest, sweetest, most charming [man]. He’s all the things that you’re describing and he’s an amazing father. I count my blessings because I have him and also I have a partner who is so supportive of me.”

Bella Cruise has nothing but support for her sister, Sunday Rose Kidman-Urban, as she embarks on a modeling career.

Sunday Rose shared a photo of herself from W Magazine via Instagram on Friday, March 7, which prompted Bella to give the photo a β€œlike” β€” a rare moment of public interaction between the two half-sisters.

The up-and-coming model made her debut in October 2024 when she walked the catwalk for the Italian fashion house Miu Miu as part of their spring show in Paris. Though her mom Nicole Kidman wasn’t at the show to support her daughter in person, she made sure to connect with her daughter at a dinner in the city afterward.

Sunday, 16, also posed for Miu Miu in the brand’s Spring/Summer 2025 campaign. She wore a red zip-up sweater tucked into a white, flowy skirt with a lace border, with a tan-and-orange windbreaker on top. She added a bit of color to the look with pink-and-blue sandals.

The mother-daughter duo have a penchant for visiting the City of Lights. The pair were in Paris for Balenciaga’s show in June 2024 as part of Paris Fashion Week, along with Kidman’s good friend Naomi Watts and her child Kai Schreiber.

Kidman and Tom Cruise’s daughter Bella typically shies away from the spotlight. The pair adopted Bella in Miami in December 1992 and she has been raised in the Church of Scientology.

In December 2024, Bella, 32, shared an Instagram Story that featured a photo of her smiling in front of a piece of her own artwork. β€œThis lil’ guy made it to @imaginemuseum,” she captioned the photo.

Kidman and Cruise also adopted Bella’s brother, Connor, in 1995. Both siblings have maintained a low profile since their parents divorce in 2001.

In November 2018, Kidman admitted she’s very protective of her oldest children. β€œI’m very private about [them],” she told Australia’s Who magazine at the time. β€œI have to protect those relationships. I know 150 percent that I would give up my life for my children because it’s what my purpose is. They are adults. They are able to make their own decisions. They have made choices to be Scientologists and, as a mother, it’s my job to love them.”

β€œI am an example of that tolerance and that’s what I believe β€” that no matter what your child does, the child has love and the child has to know there is available love and I’m open here,” she added. β€œI think that’s so important because if that is taken away from a child, to sever that in any child, in any relationship, in any family β€” I believe it’s wrong. So that’s our job as a parent, to always offer unconditional love.”

Kidman and her second husband, musician Keith Urban, married in 2006 and welcomed Sunday in 2008. Her sister Faith was born in 2010.

Lindsay Hubbard Reacts to West Wilson’s Remarks About β€˜Summer House’ Return

8 March 2025 at 11:00

Lindsay Hubbard has some thoughts on West Wilson addressing whether she would return for Summer House season 10 after welcoming her first baby.

β€œI told him, I was like, β€˜Look, here’s the problem that I have with this statement β€” not that I brought you on to this show and gave you a job, that’s not even the problem that I’m having here, but you should remind yourself of that β€” the problem I’m having is, I just became a mother and this is my job and I need to be a provider for my daughter,’” Hubbard, 38, said on the Thursday, March 6, episode of Betches’ β€œMention It All” podcast.

She continued of her conversation with Wilson, β€œβ€˜You going around being like, β€˜There’s no way [she’s returning],’ is not really helpful, and is actually really hurtful. I thought we were friends and I’m trying to be financially independent and provide for my daughter. You saying, β€˜There’s no way,’ is really fβ€”ed up.’”

Wilson made headlines last month when he was asked on an episode of the β€œTrading Secrets” podcast whether he thought Hubbard would be on the Bravo show next season. β€œThere’s no way, I don’t know. Unless they bring the baby,” Wilson said, before quipping, β€œI don’t think I can babysit. I don’t know how that works.”

West Wilson: β€˜No Way’ Lindsay Hubbard Will Be on β€˜Summer House’ Season 10

In Hubbard’s mind, Wilson could have answered that question in a different way. β€œHe could have also been like, β€˜Oh, God, I really hope so.’ Or, β€˜I’m here because of her, so I hope they figure out a way to include her despite the fact that she has a daughter.’ … Say anything besides, β€˜There’s no way.’”

Hubbard said Wilson was β€œappreciative” that she β€œhashed it out” with him after his comments. β€œWhat is with these guys publicly doing things and then expecting people to not publicly respond? I’m like, β€˜OK, then shut your fβ€”ing mouth and I won’t fβ€”ing say anything. But if you want to go, then let’s fβ€”ing have a media war. I’m down. I’m so down for a media war with West Wilson,” she said.

Hubbard quipped that Wilson is the β€œlast on the list” when it comes to a babysitter for her daughter.

β€œWest is lucky if he has a job in season 10. I told him that over summer, too,” Hubbard claimed. β€œI had many talks with him where I was just like, β€˜You need to fβ€”ing do something.’ Kyle [Cooke] got mad at him, too. You’re here to do something. If you don’t want to do something, stay at home. … And what did I do? More in my sleep.”

West Isn't Sure Carl and Lindsay Can β€˜Exist’ on β€˜Summer House’ Together

Hubbard clarified that she has β€œlove” Wilson, who joined the show in 2024. β€œI give him sβ€”t as, like, a big sister,” she said.

After splitting from Summer House costar Carl Radke, Hubbard moved on with Turner Kufe. Hubbard announced in July 2024 that she and Kufe were expecting their first baby. (Hubbard did not reveal Kufe’s identity at the time.)

β€œTrigger Warning: This post contains more fireworks than the 4th of July! WE’RE PREGNANT!!!!! πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯,” she wrote via Instagram at the time. β€œI truly believe the universe has a bigger plan and this is it! πŸ’« The second I had a feeling, I took a @clearblue Early Digital Pregnancy Test and getting a clear result, in words, made the next steps sooo much easier. My boyfriend and I are beyond excited to welcome our little #HubbCub this Holiday season 2024!!”

The couple welcomed daughter Gemma in December 2024. β€œShe’s here!! πŸŽ€ Gemma Britt Kufe 🀍,” Hubbard wrote via Instagram at the time, sharing a snap of the pair holding on their newborn’s hands.

Radke, for her part, said he felt like his and Hubbard’s chapter was β€œ100 percent” closed after he learned she was pregnant.

β€œAt first hearing it was like, β€˜OK, wow, she’s really moved on.’ Not that I was expecting the door to be kept open for me,” Radke explained. β€œYou almost envision it’s going to be some time [before your ex moves on].”

Summer House airs on Bravo Wednesdays at 9 p.m. ET.

Biden slammed for International Women's Day post after enabling transgender inclusion in women's sports

Former President Joe Biden posted on X Saturday to celebrate International Women's Day, and many Americans called out his administration's record of enabling transgender athletes to compete in women's sports.Β 

During Biden's presidency, he signed an executive order that allowed trans athletes to compete in women's and girls sports, attempted to re-write Title IX to allow it and even tried to punish states for taking their own steps to combat the issue.Β 

Since Biden left office, Democrats in congress and state governments have done plenty to combat Republican attempts to address the issue.Β 

CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM

For Biden, this manifested in a wave of criticism against his celebratory post on Saturday.Β 

Critics included Rep. Brandon Gill, R-TX, who posted a screenshot of the House of Representatives vote on the Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act, which 203 Democrats voted against. The bill was then filibustered in the Senate when 45 Democrats voted against it.Β 

XX-XY Athletics, the sportswear brand dedicated to promoting the activism of protecting female athletes from trans inclusion, lambasted Biden for "eroding" women's rights.Β 

Other Americans shared their own thoughts.Β 

"They don't succeed when men take over their spaces," one X user wrote.Β 

Another X user wrote, "Is that why you humiliated our women by putting men in women’s sports? Asking for my Sisters and Daughters ? Or do you even know you did it?Β 

"Hey Joe. What is a woman? Is your way to celebrate it by letting men into women’s sports? Taking away the identity of actual women?" wrote another user.Β 

Biden's record of allowing trans athletes to compete in women's and girls' sports became one of the biggest vulnerabilities of the Democratic Party in the 2024 election.Β 

DEMOCRAT VOTERS ABANDON PARTY AFTER AOC, JEFFRIES SAY ANTI-TRANS ATHLETE BILL EMPOWERS SEXUAL PREDATORS

On the first day of his presidency in January 2021, Biden signed an executive order on "Preventing and Combating Discrimination on the Basis of Gender Identity or SexualΒ Orientation."Β 

This order included a section that read, "Children should be able to learn without worrying about whether they will be denied access to the restroom, the locker room, or school sports."Β 

In March 2023, Democrats advocated for a transgender bill of rights, proposing a resolution "recognizing that it is the duty of the Federal Government to develop and implement a Transgender Bill of Rights." The resolution specifically called for federal law to ensure that biological men can "participate in sports on teams and in programs that best align with their gender identity; [and] use school facilities that best align with their gender identity."

Then in April 2023, Biden's Department of Education proposed a rule change that would have punished schools for preventing trans athletes from competing in women's sports.Β 

The proposition was titled "Nondiscrimination on the Basis of Sex in Education Programs or Activities Receiving Federal Financial Assistance: Sex-Related Eligibility Criteria for Male and Female Athletic Teams"

The rule would have officially outlawed individual states from banning participation in single-sex sports by gender identity rather than just sex. There are 23 states in the U.S. that have legislation in place to restrict trans athletes from competing as females in public school sports.Β 

In April 2024, Biden issued a sweeping Title IX rewrite that issued a ban on "sex" discrimination in schools covers discrimination based on gender identity, sexual orientation and "pregnancy or related conditions." The rule took effect Aug. 1, and, for the first time, the law stated that discrimination based on sex includes conduct related to a person’s gender identity.

It led to more than two dozen attorneys general suing over the rule, arguing it would conflict with some of their state laws that block transgender students from participating in women’s sports.

The Supreme Court struck down an emergency request by Biden to enforce the re-write in states that defied the re-write in August.Β 

Then, when the election came around in Novemeber, Biden's record on the issue may have backfired on his party, as they lost the White House, Senate and House of Representatives.Β 

AΒ national exit poll conducted by the Concerned Women for America legislative action committee found that 70% of moderate voters saw the issue of "Donald Trump’s opposition to transgender boys and men playing girls' and women’s sports and of transgender boys and men using girls' and women’s bathrooms" as important to them.Β 

Additionally, 6% said it was the most important issue of all, while 44% said it was "very important."

After President Donald Trump returned to office, he signed an executive order banning trans athletes in women's and girls' sports on Feb. 5. However, many Democrat-run states have refused to comply with the order so far, despite most Democrats being opposed to it.Β 

A recent New York Times/Ipsos survey found that the vast majority of Americans, including a majority of Democrats, don't think transgender athletes should be permitted to compete in women's sports. Of the 2,128 people who participated, 79% said that biological males who identify as women should not be allowed to participate in women's sports.Β 

Of the 1,025 people who identified as Democrats or leaning Democrat, 67% said that transgender athletes should not be allowed to compete with women.Β

Retroid offered very limited returns for its unfixable handheld

By: Wes Davis
8 March 2025 at 17:07

The Retroid Pocket Mini has an unfixable issue that’s causing certain graphical effects for emulated games not to work properly. Retroid, the China-based company that makes the Pocket Mini, announced on Discord that it will accept returns of the device but only during a limited March 8th to March 14th window β€” and capped at just 200 returns from owners who live outside of China, as RetroHandhelds reports.

Earlier in the week, the outlet says Retroid acknowledged it couldn’t fix the issue, which affects how the screen shows scanline and pixel grid shaders used to give classic emulated games the appearance of being played on the CRT displays they were designed for. The effects can show up as β€œmisplaced scanlines, uneven pixels, or a slightly distorted image,” RetroHandhelds writes.

Discord screenshot.

In this morning’s message, Retroid says carrying out this return campaign is a β€œlarge and costly endeavor,” and that it expects β€œa lot of return requests outside of screen-related issues.” Retroid also mentions it is asking customers to pay to ship their returns, which it promises to reimburse. Finally, the company added that it will offer all Pocket Mini owners β€œa $10 stackable coupon” for two of its future handhelds.

As Russ from the Retro Game Corps YouTube channel notes in a post on Reddit asking for recommendations to pass along to the company for dealing with the situation, Retroid is in a hard situation as a small company that now faces having to pay for very expensive shipping on returns. But that doesn’t change the fact that many gamers who bought the $199 handheld specifically to play retro games are left with a device whose otherwise impressive display does a bad job with some of the oldest tricks in the emulation book.
