Kate Middleton shares stamp of approval for ‘pacing' parenting technique
Kate Middleton is continuing her support for early social and emotional development in children. On Aug. 6, the Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood released a series of animated videos rooted in science to help parents better support their kids through early childhood. The series includes seven videos, one of which explains a parenting technique known as 'pacing.' In the YouTube video, titled 'Creating space for connection,' the narrator details how adults are inclined to move through life quickly, which differs from the slow-paced environment kids generally learn in. 'That's because everything they're experiencing is still new to them,' the narrator explains. 'And the tools they need to process all of this information are still being developed.' For example, adults pick up on facial expressions and mood changes quickly, while many kids don't. The narrator argues that slowing things down for children and allowing them to learn in an environment tailored to their pace can help children 'make sense of the world' around them. Not doing so could result in an overwhelmed child, which often leads to a stressed or frustrated parent. 'When they don't immediately respond to something we've asked, our natural inclination is to go faster,' the narrator adds. 'We repeat what we've asked even quicker than before.' 'As a result, the child has even less time to compute all this new information and becomes pretty much overwhelmed,' the narrator says, adding that children often respond with freezing, crying or ignoring you. To counter this, the Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood urges parents to 'slow down.' That might mean pausing after asking their child a question to give their brain time to process new information at their own pace, or lingering on a page when reading together. 'That's all pacing really is. Slowing down every now and then so that our speed matches their speed,' the narrator says — adding that this often creates more 'positive interactions and moments of connection.' In a news release published on the Centre for Early Childhood's website, Middleton described early childhood as a 'golden opportunity to build strong foundations for future life health and happiness.' She added that the films 'showcase how adults can create nurturing, loving interactions with children, helping to foster social and emotional development' in the child's earliest years. The Princess of Wales hopes the videos 'transform our societies' and help raise a 'younger generation better equipped to face the future.' Middleton, who shares three kids — Prince George, 12; Princess Charlotte, 10; and Prince Louis, 7 — with husband Prince William, launched the Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood in 2021. The videos build on her Shaping Us Framework, which was created by the Centre in 2023, per the Royal Foundation's official website. According to the news release, Middleton was 'closely involved' in the making of the films. Other videos teach parents how to grow an emotionally healthy brain, how to notice and navigate feelings, how to manage big feelings together and how to encourage back and forth interactions with kids. 'These core social and emotional skills are essential in forming healthy relationships and are fundamental building blocks that can carry us through life,' Middleton said in the release.

Cody Rhodes Casts Doubt On Major WWE Match Happening Again
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The epic rivalry between Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns defined WWE for two years, and now the new Undisputed WWE Champion has commented on the possibility of a third, tie-breaking match. While fans have been clamoring for a trilogy bout, Rhodes has admitted it would be a "very hard match to have happen" in the current landscape. Speaking on the Sports Illustrated Podcast, "The American Nightmare" was asked about another encounter with "The Tribal Chief." He acknowledged the importance of a rubber match but was realistic about the challenges. A Hard Match To Make Cody Rhodes praised Roman Reigns as an opponent and acknowledged the significance of their two WrestleMania main events. However, he noted that their current standing in the company makes a third match difficult to put together. "I can tell you that's probably a very hard match to have happen," Rhodes said. "But I could see it being very significant it happening again... for the fans who really make this all up... you can't just have two, you know, we split it, right? So that third exists... I'm certainly not adverse to it. I don't know what his outlook on it is." Finishing The Story: A Two-Year Saga The rivalry between Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns is the definitive storyline of the modern WWE era. It spanned two full years, beginning with Cody's return to the company in 2022 with the stated goal of winning the championship his father, Dusty Rhodes, never held. Cody Rhodes looks on during the WWE Royal Rumble at Alamodome on January 28, 2023 in San Antonio, Texas. Cody Rhodes looks on during the WWE Royal Rumble at Alamodome on January 28, 2023 in San Antonio, Texas. Alex Bierens de Haan Their first epic encounter was in the main event of WrestleMania 39, where Reigns, with the help of The Bloodline, defeated Rhodes in a heartbreaking finish. Cody spent the next year fighting his way back to the main event, winning a second consecutive Royal Rumble to earn a rematch. At WrestleMania 40, he finally "finished the story," defeating Reigns to win the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship. More news: WWE Superstar Announces Retirement Match A Tale of Two Paths With their series tied at one win apiece, a third match seems inevitable from a storytelling perspective. However, the two stars are now on very different paths. Cody Rhodes is once again the reigning Undisputed WWE Champion on SmackDown after defeating John Cena at SummerSlam. Roman Reigns, after a long hiatus following his WrestleMania 40 loss, has recently returned to the Raw brand as a changed man. He is reportedly now on a new quest to capture the World Heavyweight Championship, which would put him on a collision course with that title, not Cody's. For a third match to happen, a major brand switch or a special "champion vs. champion" scenario would be required. More WWE News: For more on WWE, head to Newsweek Sports.

Malcolm-Jamal Warner's Podcast Cohost Honors Him During Heartbreaking Tribute Episode
Candace Kelley, the grieving cohost of Malcolm-Jamal Warner's podcast, "Not All Hood," paid tribute to the late actor in an emotional episode published on July 25, 2025. In the episode, Kelley was joined by one of Warner's former co-stars, Jessica Miesel, who also shared a heartfelt message about the beloved actor. Malcolm-Jamal Warner's Podcast Cohost Honors Him In Emotional Episode Days After His Death Warner first revealed his podcast, "Not All Hood," with a teaser video shared on YouTube in May 2024. Since then, he, along with his cohorts, Weusi Baraka and Kelley, have uploaded a number of episodes focusing on a range of topics, from fatherhood to spirituality. In a recent episode hosted by Kelley, she, along with several others, including "The Resident" star Miesel, paid tribute to the iconic actor following his tragic death. "I was so struck by his endless curiosity and his warmth and his elegance," Miesel said about Warner. "But, mainly, his ability to make me and others feel like an equal. I never felt like he was looking down at anybody else." Miesel shared that one of her "favorite" things about Warner was "his laugh" and his infectious sense of humor, adding, "... even doing a serious surgery scene and he would add something completely silly to the end of it." Kelley Honored Malcolm-Jamal Warner For Doing More For Black Actors Kelley, for her part, praised Warner, who also appeared in "A Different World" and "Malcolm & Eddie," for advocating for Black actors to play roles that challenged stereotypes. 'He really was on a mission to make sure that the tropes about the Black community are not continued,' she said. 'We'd have these conversations because all the dramas on TV are about gangs and the street and drugs and kingpins." Kelley added, 'But a lot of people don't know that he often turned down a lot of parts in these types of shows. He'd say, 'It's good writing, but it's not a good message.'" Malcolm-Jamal Warner Spent His Final Moments With His Daughter Before Drowning In Costa Rica The tribute episode comes just days after the shocking news of Warner's death was first reported. According to a previous report from The Blast, Warner was swimming with his 8-year-old daughter in Costa Rica when they were caught in a rip current. A police report noted that surfers in the area noticed Warner and his daughter struggling in the water and rushed to their aid. Warner's daughter was brought to shore, followed by Warner himself, who then received 45 minutes of CPR. An autopsy confirmed that Warner's cause of death was "asphyxiation by submersion." A spokesperson from the Forensic Pathology Department ruled his passing accidental. Police Said Warner Fought For His Daughter In The Water Elberth León, head of the Tourist Police for Costa Rica's Atlantic region, later provided more detail on the rip current Warner and his daughter were caught in, revealing the late actor fought ferociously to save her. 'Both were dragged by the current,' León shared with Us Weekly. 'They were bathing together and were caught by a rip current. Obviously, as a father, he fought for his daughter, but the current in that area is very strong, and they couldn't accomplish the objective.' Celebrities Speak Out About Losing Warner Many celebrities, including Kerry Washington and Jamie Foxx, have shared emotional tributes dedicated to Warner and his legacy. His "Cosby Show" co-star, Raven Symoné, also posted a heartfelt tribute, saying that "words cannot describe the pain and sadness and surprise that I feel with the recent loss of MJW." Symoné went on to call Warner a "big brother" before praising his talent in the entertainment industry. "So gentle, and my heart and soul and hugs, and kisses go out to his daughter and his wife, and his mother," Symoné said. She continued, "He gave the best advice, he gave the best hugs, and his smile will always be a huge, bright f-cking white smile in my head forever," adding, "I love you, and I know you're watching over all of us now. Bye, Malcolm." And she wasn't the only "Cosby Show" alum to speak out. Bill Cosby also shared a statement through his rep, likening Warner's death to the murder of his son, Ennis Cosby, who died in 1997. "It's just devastating," he said. Solve the daily Crossword
