Bo Derek: A Hollywood Star with a Controversial Love Story

Bo Derek is an American actress and model whose beauty and ability have enthralled audiences for decades. In 1979, following her role in the romantic comedy “10,” her career took off. She has since acted in a number of movies, including “Tarzan, the Ape Man,” “Bolero,” and “Ghosts Can’t Do It.” However, she laments the love story that led to her prosperity.

Bo initially met John Derek, her future first husband, when she was sixteen years old and going through an interview for a part in the film “Fantasies.” Bo fell in love with John right away because, as her mother had said, he was really gorgeous. Bo found it impossible not to fall in love with John, even though they were married to seasoned actress Linda Evans and had a big age difference.

Despite Bo’s mother’s uneasy presence, their passion flourished throughout the filming of “Fantasies” on the stunning island of Mykonos, Greece. They chose to make their relationship public after the film completed because they were really in love.

But there was a price to their devotion. For their romance to last, John and Linda had to get a divorce. Additionally, because their relationship was illegal in the US, the couple was forced to remain in Europe. Bo left high school early to be with John and went on their European travels with him in order to stay together.

Bo stuck by John’s side until his death, in spite of her parents’ condemnation. She has, nevertheless, always felt responsible for ending Linda Evans’ marriage. Bo acknowledged in an interview that she despised herself for stealing someone’s husband and that it was the worst thing she had ever done. She has been burdened by the guilt, particularly since meeting Linda, whom she found admirable. Bo thinks that was a grave error she made in her life.

Bo never thought he would find love again after John passed away. However, life often takes us by surprise. Although she had no intention of getting married when she first met American actor John Corbett in 2002, their relationship developed over time. After dating for 20 years, they were married in 2020 because they had a strong bond and had a lot of laughs.

Bo is happily married to John Corbett now, and despite their decision not to have children, her nontraditional choices in life do not diminish her as a woman. Her strength and determination continue to inspire people everywhere.

Bo’s contentious love tale ultimately teaches us the value of moving on and the repercussions of our choices. Even though she will likely always feel guilty for her previous transgressions, she has once again found love and happiness in her life.

Dad gets massively shamed for putting leashes on his 5-year-old quintuplets

Raising children these days can be a task on its own. Young parents don’t just have to hear opinions from family members but also have to put up with random strangers on the internet commenting on their parenting methods.

Jordan Driskell is a young father of five quintuplets. His quintuplets happen to be 5 years old. As you can imagine, looking after 5 children who are the same age can be quite taxing. Especially at 5-years-old when a child is curious and likes to explore.

31-year-old dad, Jordan Driskell decided to find a creative solution to his problem. He bought leashes meant for children to control his rambunctuous little kids when they are in public together.

In the past, Driskell had a 6-seat stroller that they used for their big family. However, that grew tiresome very quickly because the kids would be bothered when inside it. The stroller was also incredibly inconvenient to take anywhere.

This helps the little kids get to wander and explore their surroundings when the family goes out without their dad losing sight or control of them and hence keep them safe!

Driskell posted a video of the family’s outing to the acquarium that caused a lot of negative feedback directed towards the parents. The video of the kids on leashes went viral with over 3 million views. Hundreds of people commented about how the children were not animals and hence should not have been leashed.

Others commented, “If you can’t manage the pressure, don’t have so many kids.”

Other offered disdain masked as advice, “Can’t you just properly train your children?” Discuss to them why fleeing is risky.”

Dr. Deborah Gilboa, an expert in parenting and adolescent development had a different opinion. She does not think a leash will make your child think they are an animal. And if the alternative to a leash is to stay at home, then of course, the leash is a much better option!

Dr. Gilboa said a leash is a great tool for younger children or neuro-diverse children to be controlled in a public environment. However, she said that if a neurotypical child is not off a leash by the age of eight and nine, and hence has not developed their listening skills, that might be troublesome.

By then, parents should be able to effectively communicate with children verbally instead of relying on tools like leashes.

Parents should have the freedom to parent the way they want without facing unneccesary judgement from society.
