Ed Sheeran's top parenting tip revolves around breakfast
Before heading into the studio or playing a show, Ed Sheeran 's first gig of the day is making breakfast for his kids. During an appearance on Thursday's episode of the " Not Gonna Lie with Kylie Kelce" podcast, the musician shared the best piece of fatherhood advice he's ever received. "Always be the one that makes the breakfast in the morning," Sheeran told podcast host Kylie Kelce. "Always be the one that gets up first, and let your partner have a lie-in. Do the breakfast because that's the time of the day that your kids are the least angry, because they're rested." The "Bad Habits" singer added that taking on breakfast duty is a triple win: he gets the morning chores done, gives his partner a well-earned break, and gets quality time with the kids when they're at their best. "They want to help out as well. So, I'm handing them plates and they're putting the plates away, and I'm like, you're making my job easier," Sheeran said. He added that he also enjoys taking on the "evening shift." "Reading 40 different stories and having someone fall asleep on your shoulder is actually really lovely," Sheeran said. Sheeran and his wife, Cherry Seaborn, welcomed their first daughter, Lyra, in 2020, and their second daughter, Jupiter, in 2022. In a 2021 interview with BBC Radio 1, Sheeran said that becoming a dad led him to change his lifestyle habits. He started going into the studio from 9-to-5 instead of ending his recording sessions in the middle of the night. "As soon as Cherry told me she was pregnant, life shifted, in terms of work and health and what I was putting into my body, be it food or alcohol," he said. Like Sheeran, many other celebrities have also opened up about their own parenting tips. Kate Hudson — who has — previously said that she isn't afraid to apologize to her children whenever she's in the wrong. "And what you find in going to your kids and saying, 'I could have handled this better' or 'I made a mistake' or 'I'm sorry I didn't trust you' — whatever the scenario — is that connection becomes stronger," Hudson said. During a June episode of her "IMO" podcast, Michelle Obama said that good parenting involves knowing that kids are "not your friends." She added it's important for parents to set clear boundaries that they believe in and that they stick to "all the time," since kids are always testing how far they can push before adults cave. A representative for Sheeran did not immediately respond to a request for comment sent by Business Insider outside regular hours.

Priyanka Chopra says her mom was mad when she met Nick Jonas
Priyanka Chopra Jonas is revisiting one of the more awkward, and now hilarious moments from her early relationship with Nick Jonas, and it involves a late-night visit and a very surprised mom. Speaking on the Not Gonna Lie with Kylie Kelce podcast, which aired July 3, Chopra Jonas recalled bringing Jonas to her apartment for the first time back in 2017 after a night out in New York. The only problem? It was 1am and she forgot to tell her mom, Dr. Madhu Chopra, that someone was coming over. 'She was on the couch watching Law & Order: SVU,' Priyanka said. 'She literally got up with her lipstick in her hand and said, 'You should've told me someone was coming over!' Then stormed into her room and didn't come back out.' Priyanka admitted she wasn't sure it was a real date, having arrived 45 minutes late and dressed casually. When Nick ended the night with a polite hug and two pats on the back, she briefly thought she might have been friend-zoned. But he later explained he just wanted to be respectful, given her mom was in the next room. The couple officially began dating in 2018, got engaged in Greece that summer, and married in December. They welcomed their daughter, Malti Marie, via surrogate in 2022.

Is Philly water ice the same as Italian ice? No, and here's why
Philly-style water ice makes a great 7th inning treat – Photo courtesy of Catherine Smith This article, originally published in June 2019, was updated in June 2025. Fans of the podcast "Not Gonna Lie with Kylie Kelce" recently discovered another 'uniquely Philly' passion of Kelce's: water ice. 'WTF is water ice? Are we talking about snow cones?' asked YouTube viewer @treysullivan9248. Kelce, like any true Philadelphian, aggressively but understandably, clarified: 'No, Trey! We are not talking about snow cones!' Advertisement Kelce — media personality, podcast host, and wife of retired Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce — went on to say that water ice is a Philadelphia summer staple that's basically frozen sugar water. "You can't go wrong with it,' she said. What is Philly-style water ice? Philly kids love their Philadelphia water ice – Photo courtesy of Catherine Smith Most similar to a fresh fruit slushie, water ice has been Philadelphia's favorite summer treat for generations. Each spring, as the weather starts to warm up and hint at summer, we celebrate with our favorite seasonal treat. Moms line up with their kids at their favorite water ice stands. Excited children study the freezer full of colorful tubs. One asks, "Can I have strawberry on the bottom and mango on top?' The teenager behind the counter happily obliges, filling the bottom half of the plastic cup with an icy strawberry mixture and topping it off with another pale-yellow scoop. Advertisement While Philadelphians have been enjoying water ice for generations, the consumption of ice and fruit combinations goes back a couple of thousand years to ancient Sicily (and can be traced even further back to Asia, Persia, and Mesopotamia). To beat the summer heat, according to food historian Liz Williams, ancient Sicilians devised creative means to both refresh and delight. Long before the invention of coolers and refrigeration, the people of Sicily were ingeniously experimenting with ice. Runners were sent up the almost 11,000-foot Mount Etna, Europe's highest active volcano, to collect snow and ice that could be combined with lemons, limes, and other fresh fruits to create a cool and refreshing summer treat. Over the years, Sicilians mastered a method of storing the ice in caverns beneath the volcano before transporting it to other parts of Italy. As they did so, the practice of mixing ice and fruit, known as granita, spread throughout Italy. Different regions developed their own versions of the fruit and ice combination, as well as sorbets and gelato. Fast forward some 2,000 years to the early 1900s, at the peak of Italian immigration to the United States. Approximately 2 million Italians immigrated here at that time, the majority coming from Southern Italy with hopes of escaping the intense poverty back home. Advertisement Men and women looked for creative ways — like peddling granita — to make money while establishing themselves and seeking employment. Just as the different regions of Italy developed different versions of granita over the years, American cities with high concentrations of Italians, especially Sicilians, began developing their versions. How do you serve Philadelphia water ice? Traditional water ice (pronounced "wooder ice" with the local accent) is made with three simple ingredients: fresh fruit, sugar and water. While it was once made by hand, today the ingredients are combined in a metal, cylindrical machine. A mixer inside the metal barrel rotates and scrapes the edges as the mixture begins to freeze and stick to the walls. After reaching the correct consistency, the water ice is transferred into tubs and served up fresh. Where is Philadelphia water ice made? Enjoy a refreshing treat at John's Water Ice – Photo courtesy of Kae Lani Palmisano As water ice has grown in popularity, new stands and mass-produced water ice franchises have popped up. Kids especially love Rita's Water Ice, a chain now available in over 30 states. Two of Philadelphia's most beloved water ice stands are John's Water Ice and Pop's Homemade Water Ice. John Cardullo, founder of John's Water Ice, owned a diner in the heart of South Philly's Italian Market neighborhood and often served water ice as a dessert. In 1945, as the water ice grew in popularity, he decided to close the diner, turn it into office space for his heating repair company, and open a simple water ice stand next door. Advertisement The two seasonal businesses provided Cardullo with steady income in both winter and summer. John's Water Ice still operates out of this original location on Christian Street, with a second location in Huntingdon Valley. Filippo Italiano of Pop's Homemade Water Ice sold his homemade Italian water ice from a cart he pushed around the neighborhood. As word of his refreshing treat spread, children and families began lining up outside his garage waiting for him to open. Since he lived across the street from an urban park, Italiano realized he was well-known enough to quit lugging his heavy cart around in the heat and let people come to him instead. In 1932, he converted his garage into a storefront. Decades later, his grandchildren still serve water ice out of this same location. Advertisement If you're visiting Philadelphia, head over to one of the mom-and-pop stands where you know you'll be met with the tastiest and most authentic Philadelphia water ice experience. Just be prepared, as many are cash only. John's is easily walkable from the Liberty Bell and Center City, while Pop's is located right off the Broad Street Line subway, a perfect place to stop before or after a Phillies game.

Comedian Ilana Glazer says her 4-year-old daughter taught her a big lesson: 'I learned to slow down'
Ilana Glazer says that parenting her toddler taught her how to let go of control. She says she often has expectations of how things will unfold, but they don't always match reality. "When you have kids, they're not a plan to be executed," the comedian said. Ilana Glazer says that parenting her 4-year-old daughter taught her the power of letting go. In an interview with Parents published on Monday, the comedian spoke about raising a toddler and how the experience brought her unexpected clarity. "I learned to slow down and be gentle with myself in the past five years, including during my pregnancy. It's a muscle that needs exercise and breath," Glazer told Parents. Glazer, best known for her role in Comedy Central's "Broad City," added that parenting rarely sticks to a script. "When you have kids, they're not a plan to be executed. They're little magical human beings who need support," she said. But still, letting go of control is a work in progress. Glazer says she's far from a chill mom, especially "when I have expectations of how a trip is supposed to go, how bedtime is supposed to go, how a nap is supposed to go." Thankfully, she's got plenty of support from her husband, who complements her parenting style. Unlike Glazer, her husband does his best to "make space for our daughter to have whatever process she's having." "And it's so much more delightful than making my kid my little employee, whose job it is to do what I need her to do. I like to plan for things and produce, so it's been a gift to see our combined parenting unfold," Glazer said. "It's shown me how much I've been holding on to that I need to let go of." She added that her daughter is already able to name her feelings — something that Glazer had to go to therapy to learn. "She's already 30 years ahead of me," Glazer added. Glazer is among several high-profile women who have recently opened up about the challenges of raising children, particularly the need to let go of control. In a March appearance on the "Not Gonna Lie with Kylie Kelce" podcast, Kate Hudson said she learned how to apologize to her kids when she's in the wrong. "Sometimes in conflict, you go too far, and you need to say you're sorry, instead of teaching them that you doubled down," Hudson said. "And what you find in going to your kids and saying, 'I could have handled this better' or 'I made a mistake' or 'I'm sorry I didn't trust you' — whatever the scenario — is that connection becomes stronger." During a May episode of the "IMO" podcast, Michelle Obama said she doesn't believe in coddling her kids because it prevents them from learning from their mistakes. "It's like, you know what, I raised you all to have some sense, to have judgment. And at some point, you've got to practice that, which means that I've got to let go," the former first lady said. A representative for Glazer did not immediately respond to a request for comment sent by Business Insider outside regular hours. Read the original article on Business Insider
