Property Brothers Star Drew Scott's Kids Parker & Piper Are Twinning — & Snuggling! — in Rare Photo

Yahoo17-05-2025

Drew Scott and Linda Phan's children are the snuggliest kiddos on the block, and it's the cutest thing you'll see today. On May 17, the Property Brothers star shared a snapshot of his two kiddos, Parker and Piper, on his Instagram. He shared the photo with the caption reading, 'Sibling snuggles🥰. Love seeing Parky as a big bro!'
We see the adorable siblings snuggling together, twinning in neutral-toned onesies and their iconic dark hair. Not only does this rare pic make us 'awww,' but it just shows how close the two already are!
And this isn't the first time we've seen the two snuggle up this year. Back in Feb 2025, they chaotically cuddled each other, and their papa, who he posted on social media with the caption reading, 'If we ain't workin', we ain't brushing our hair. #bedhead.'
For those who don't know, Scott and Phan met at a Toronto Fashion Week event in 2010, hitting it off soon after. They later married in 2018.
After 12 years together, they welcomed their son Parker James, born in May 2022, specifically on their fourth wedding anniversary. In early 2024, they announced they were expecting another baby, and on June 5, 2024, they welcomed their daughter Piper Rae.
Back in 2023, during an interview with Drew and Jonathan, Drew talked about what being a father meant to him. 'I don't want to be the dad who's off filming and works all the time. The traditional stereotypes are not of interest to me. Linda and I both want to be impactful in Parker's growth,' he said. 'There's no perfect parent or perfect dad and families look different for everyone. As long as you're someone who's giving your all, giving a lot of love, showing love, and encouraging your kids to be kind, you're doing the job.'Best of SheKnows

I Got Belkin's New Nintendo Switch 2 Accessories But Not the Switch 2

You'd think an accessories company like Belkin would have already made some gaming accessories, but until now it hasn't. That's changing as it's released four new accessories for the new Switch 2 game console, which Nintendo just started shipping to consumers. I'm still waiting for my Switch 2 to arrive, but I did get review samples of all four Belkin Switch 2 accessories, which include two cases -- one with a bundled battery -- and two glass screen protectors. Read more: CNET's Switch 2 accessories round up The $30 Belkin Travel Case for Switch 2, available in three color options (charcoal, sand and green), is a compact, elegant case that seems durable (the fabric is water-resistant). On the inside you'll find a slot system to store 10 game cards and a hidden AirTag compartment. What's kind of cool is that you can detach the carrying handle, turning it into a wristlet strap. According to Belkin, the relatively compact case weighs 285.5 grams (.63 pounds) or 821.5 grams (1.81 pounds) with the Switch 2 stored in it. The Travel case comes in three color options. Screenshot by David Carnoy/CNET The $70 Belkin Charging Case has the same footprint as the Travel Case but is about a third thicker as it includes a 10K power bank that sits in a little well in the bottom of the case under your Switch 2. You can charge the console in the case or remove the battery and uses it to charge the Switch 2 outside the case -- or charge other devices. It's a pretty basic looking 10K portable battery that offers fast 20W charging and has two USB-C charge out ports (the Switch 2 has a 5,220mAh battery and Belkin says its power bank will charge the Switch 1.5x). In my tests with an iPhone 16 Pro Max, the power bank doesn't heat up too much while charging. The Charging Case also includes the same slot system to store 10 game cards and a hidden AirTag compartment. The Belkin Charging Case for Switch 2 includes a 10K power bank. Belkin The screen protectors are solid glass screen protectors, which is nice (these aren't those cheap, thin plastic ones you sometimes see). Belkin has a history of making screen protectors for iPhones -- it has a partnership with Apple to apply screen protectors in Apple Stores -- so they also seem good though a little pricey. Read more: Hands-on with Nintendo's Switch 2 on launch day I'm already seeing a slew of Switch 2 cases and accessories showing up on Amazon from no-name brands, with cases starting at a little less than $20. We'll be putting together a list of the best Switch accessories as soon as we test more items, but I like what I've seen so far with these Belkin accessories. I'll add any additional comments should I encounter any issues once I actually use them with my Switch 2 that is scheduled to arrive tomorrow.

Tom Hanks says 'we all come from checkered' lives amid daughter's memoir claiming abusive childhood

Tom Hanks has his daughter's back. During an interview with Access Hollywood on Wednesday, the Oscar Award-winning actor got candid about daughter E.A. Hanks' decision to go public with her abuse allegations against his ex-wife in her memoir, "The 10: A Memoir of Family and the Open Road." "She's a knockout, always has been," Hanks said of the daughter he shared with the late Susan Dillingham. "You know, it's a pride because I think — she shares it with me. She's very open about what the process is." "If you've had kids, you realize that you see who they are when they're about six weeks old," he continued. "Their personality is on display right there. Their temper, the way they see the world is demonstrated in their body language and on their face." "We all come from checkered, cracked lives, all of us." "I'm not surprised that my daughter had the wherewithal as well as the curiosity — as well as, I'm going to say perhaps a shoot-herself-in-the-foot kind of wherewithal — in order to examine this thing that I think she was incredibly honest about." "We all come from checkered, cracked lives, all of us," he concluded. E.A., whose initials stand for Elizabeth Anne, wrote about her complicated childhood marred by her parents' divorce and a mother she claims could be emotionally and physically "violent." After her parents' divorce, her mom got full custody and moved them to Sacramento. "As the years went on, the backyard became so full of dog s--- that you couldn't walk around it, the house stank of smoke," she wrote in an excerpt obtained by People magazine, adding she believes her mother, although undiagnosed, suffered from bipolar disorder and episodes of extreme paranoia and delusions. "The fridge was bare or full of expired food more often than not, and my mother spent more and more time in her big four-poster bed, poring over the Bible." E.A. recalled one night when her mother's emotional violence "became physical." "One night, her emotional violence became physical violence, and in the aftermath I moved to Los Angeles, right smack in the middle of the seventh grade," she wrote. "My custody arrangement basically switched — now I lived in L.A. and visited Sacramento on the weekends and in the summer." E.A. added that in her senior year of high school, her mother "called to say she was dying." Dillingham died of lung cancer in 2002 at the age of 49.

Ballerina is a dance-by-numbers return to the world of John Wick

Lionsgate was always going to need to take the John Wick franchise in a new direction if it wanted to keep the film series going after the inevitable exit of its central star. A spinoff series came and went with a telling lack of fanfare that spoke, in part, to how John Wick stories feel like they were meant to be experienced in movie theaters. And while the studio has a second tie-in show in the works, it seems like another project that might wind up being a sign that John Wick works best on the silver screen. On paper, director Len Wiseman's awkwardly named From the World of John Wick: Ballerina feature sounds like the sort of straightforward parallel prequel that could work as the beginning of a new chapter for the larger franchise. There's a simplicity to the story and a comedic whimsy to (some of) its action that feels true to the John Wick brand. And there are enough returning faces from the older films that it works fairly well as a crash course introduction to this gore-filled world of assassins. But in practice, Ballerina lacks a lot of the near-camp flair that made previous John Wick films fun, and most of its set pieces feel uninspired. Rather than using its story to show you how an ordinary person learns the ins and outs of the assassin lifestyle, Ballerina spends most of its runtime riffing on narrative beats from other action films. That might have worked if the movie's leading actor delivered a compelling performance that sold her character as the series' rightful heir. But Ana de Armas' acting — especially compared to that of her co-stars — falls too flat for its own good. Set between the events of John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum and John Wick: Chapter 4, Ballerina chronicles the rise of Eve Macarro (Ana de Armas) as she becomes one of the world's most-wanted hired killers. As an orphan raised within the Ruska Roma, Eve knows that she's destined to follow in the bloody footsteps of her adoptive mother, the Director (Anjelica Huston). But part of her still yearns to leave her violent life behind to pursue a career as a ballerina. It's a dream that Eve's father (David Castañeda) encouraged her to hold onto during her childhood while he worked to keep their small family safe and far away from another clan of deadly assassins. But after being forced to watch his murder at the hands of the Chancellor (Gabriel Byrne) as a child, Eve locks that part of herself away in order to focus on revenge. As one of the Ruska Roma's strongest young students, it doesn't take much for Eve to convince the Director to let her start going on assignments to take out and / or protect high-profile targets. But when one of her missions brings her face-to-face with a member of the Chancellor's clan, she breaks protocol and starts hunting more of them down, knowing full well that her adoptive family will take swift action to stop her before she sets off a war. Compared to past John Wick films, there's a roughness to Ballerina 's choreographed fights that's meant to highlight how relatively new Eve is to operating in the field and how, because of her small stature, she has to be creative in her approach to taking on larger opponents. While Eve finds herself in plenty of shoot-outs, the film often leaves her with nothing but her wits and whatever mundane objects (rather than weapons) happen to be laying around. It's an idea that works well enough throughout Ballerina 's first act, when we're first shown her signature move of using her bodyweight to snap people's necks and arms. Though Ballerina 's script cribs some story beats from Kill Bill and Marvel's Black Widow, the film's action is classic John Wick in the way its brawls emphasize the artistry of stunt fighting. But as the film progresses, it quickly becomes clear that Eve doesn't have many other tricks up her sleeve, and the few that she does have tend to feel like steps de Armas is counting her way through. Acting has never really been the big draw for John Wick movies, but there's an emotionally wooden quality to de Armas' performance that makes Eve hard to buy as a complex, conflicted character. This is especially apparent in scenes between Eve and Ballerina 's other returning characters from John Wick 's past like New York Continental owner Winston Scott (Ian McShane) and hotel concierge Charon (the late Lance Reddick in his final on-screen performance). Where Ballerina does work well is in moments where it embraces the cartoon energy that's always been present in the John Wick franchise and served to offset the visceral brutality of its brawls. It's tough watching Eve slash people's faces to shreds with ice skates on her hands, but it's wildly fun watching her use a fire hose to square off with someone wielding a flamethrower. De Armas' awkwardness actually feels like more of a feature than a bug in scenes that double down on the idea that Eve is learning on the job and still getting used to the ridiculousness of being an assassin in this heightened reality. But Ballerina insists on returning to a serious tone that does no favors for its lead actor. It's easy to imagine Ballerina really shining with a little bit more live-action cartoon energy and a narrative that actually felt like a journey through the world of John Wick. But for that kind of a good time, we're going to have to wait for whatever the franchise has next.
