How Pregnant Domino Kirke and Penn Badgley Are Preparing for Twins
Originally appeared on E! Online Domino Kirke is saying hello to two. Two months after her husband Penn Badgley announced they are expecting twins, the "Teething" singer shared how they're going with the flow while getting ready to welcome babies no. 3 and 4. "Everyone is in the same boat, very, very fluid with it," Domino told E! News in an exclusive interview. "I think they're taking my lead. No one's holding on too tight. It's just an expansion—that's what we're here for." After all, the duola—who shares a 4-year-old son with the Gossip Girl alum, as well as 16-year-old son Cassius with ex Morgan O'Kane—has a lot of experience with motherhood. This time around is a little different, however, since she and Penn will be going through double the newborn milestones as parents to twin boys. "It's humbling," Domino reflected. "It's so overwhelming. The idea of two at once, it's one of those things where you just take your hands off the wheel, and you say, 'I'm just on the ride.' That's what pregnancy and childbirth are for me." More from E! Online Sean "Diddy" Combs Trial: Cassie Ventura Says Period Blood, Urine Were Involved in "Freak Offs" Bindi Irwin Shares Update From Hospital After Multiple Procedures What Is a 'Freak Off'? What to Know About the Sex Parties in Sean "Diddy" Combs' Trial "After attending so many births, it's the thing that you actually can't hold," she continued. "There's so much mystery. You just have to trust. With twins, I'm like, 'Oh, it's that times 1,000' and I'm up for it." With so much experience and adoration for the birthing process, the music video for her song "Teething" emulated her goal to one day highlight the beauty and reality of the experience—especially for young people. "There's health class and there's sex education," Domino—whose new album The Most Familiar Star was released in April—explained, "but there's no conversation about how we get here." The 41-year-old had conversations with her friends born in the '70s, who said they were "freaked out" by seeing videos of women giving birth in high school. However, Domino asserted that they were shown a "gory misrepresentation of birth." The "Half Blood" singer wanted to shift that perspective with the help of Cassius and other high school students, whose reactions to watching a birth were used as a visual for the song. "How do I bring my profession and my service that I do outside of music to my music?" Domino, who also directed the video alongside Gregory Mitnick, thought. "I was like, 'Oh, it would be so cool for the one song I really wrote about my clients and my kids simultaneously—if I could find a way to capture that in a visual." "I did it by bringing this information to my co-director and saying, 'Hey, could we capture the expressions and feelings and reactions and responses of teenagers watching birth?'" she continued. "He thought it was brilliant with the song and it worked really well in the end." As Penn and Domino prepare to welcome their twin babies, keep reading for a look back at their relationship.

'They can just rot': teen's murderers face life in jail
Two men convicted of murdering an Indigenous teen who was chased into bushland and bashed with a metal pole face life sentences, with the boy's mother saying the pair can rot behind bars. Cassius Turvey, a Noongar Yamatji boy, died in hospital 10 days after he was "deliberately struck to the head" in Perth's eastern suburbs on October 13, 2022, causing nationwide outrage. Jack Steven James Brearley, 24, and Brodie Lee Palmer, 29, were convicted of murdering the 15-year-old following a three-month trial in the Supreme Court of Western Australia. Mitchell Colin Forth, 27, was convicted of manslaughter and Aleesha Louise Gilmore, 23, was acquitted by the jury on Thursday. Outside the court after the jury delivered its unanimous verdict, Cassius' mother Mechelle Turvey said her son identified Brearley and Palmer the night he was attacked. "My son died for absolutely nothing," she said, with family and supporters chanting "justice for Cassius". "His life was taken. He was hunted down for days ... 15 years of age, my son has finally got justice. May he live forever." Ms Turvey said it was a "sore point" for her that police did not take a statement from Cassius before he died because of his head injury. Asked about the verdicts, Ms Turvey said she was "numb with relief" after they were read. "Justice to me will never be served because I don't have my son, and he's not coming back ... they can just rot as far as I'm concerned," she said. Prosecutor Ben Stanwix told the jury Brearley delivered the fatal blows while "hunting for kids" because somebody had smashed his car windows. It was alleged Forth and Palmer aided him, and along with Gilmore, they had a common purpose on the day. Brearley denied he struck Cassius with a pole, saying he only punched him after the teen knifed him and that Palmer did the deed. Palmer in turn denied Brearley's account as the two men attempted to blame each other for the murder during the trial. Cassius was struck at least twice, causing bleeding in his brain. His death shocked the community and the attack was described by Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and others as racially motivated, although Mr Stanwix said this wasn't the case. Lead investigator Detective Senior Sergeant Steve Cleal said Cassius was a boy who went to school and didn't make it home. "Cassius was completely innocent ... this was not his fault," he said. WA Premier Roger Cook said he hoped the guilty verdicts provided justice and closure for Cassius' family. "This is a dreadful, horrible experience, a very violent experience, and Cassius has left us," he said. "We're deeply saddened and disturbed by the accounts of that crime." The men will be sentenced on June 26 and face mandatory life sentences under WA law.
