Oti Mabuse stuns Loose Women viewers as she reveals she'll buy her daughter her first SEX TOY
OTI Mabuse shocked her fellow Loose Women and the show's live audience today with a sex toy revelation. The panel were discussing Harry Styles' new venture into the sex toy industry when the conversation ventured into what was the right age to talk to your children about sex. 4 4 Myleene Klass opened the conversation by saying when she grew up "you just did not talk about any of that business" but as a result feels like she has "gone the other way" with her own parenting style. "Nothing's off limits, because if they don't hear it from me, they're either going to get the misinformation from their friends or online and it might confuse them further," she said. Nadia Sawalha then explained how she'd read an article about a woman who'd bought her daughter a vibrator when she turned 18 and, while she thought it was good to be open with kids, added: "I do think sometimes we get too much into the business of our children." As for Oti, who rose to fame on Strictly Come Dancing, she admitted that while she might not talk about sex openly on national television, she is very open with her friends and believes people should be with their own children. "Would you buy one [sex toy] for your children," Loose Women host Kaye Adams asked her. "I'm going to buy her her first toy, I will," Oti declared, sparking gasps from the audience and her fellow panellists. "And then I'll have a conversation with her about how to use, how not to use and if she doesn't want to use it she can just put it away." According to global sex health educator, Cath Hakanson, whether or not a parent should buy their teen a vibrator is a personal decision, and if someone is thinking about it they should first look into laws around sex toys and minors. Hakanson explained that while she would be "very hesitant to allow sex toys for anyone under the age of 14" and recommends "to leave it until their mid to late teens." "If you allow a sex toy, you MUST have conversations with your teen/young adult about sexual pleasure," Cath explained on her website, SexEd Resources. "It's not a 'dump and run' situation. You have to be having conversations plus ensure they know how to use it safely." Oti is a former Dancing On Ice judge and welcomed her first child with her husband, Marius Lepure, 41, in November 2023. The professional ballroom dancers met in Germany during a dance trial. Marius popped the question to Oti on his birthday in 2014 and they tied the knot on August 31 the same year. 4

The Longest Shortest Time
Credit - After a five-year hiatus, the parenting podcast hosted by This American Life contributor and author Hillary Frank returned with the help of Realm in 2025. The archives, spanning 2010 to 2019, delve into essential topics like whether to get genetic testing before having a baby and interview listeners for some fantastic tales like the twisty series on 'The Accidental Gay Parents.' But a lot has changed in Frank's life and the world of parenting since the show took a break. Frank started the podcast because of her disappointment with her own birth experience, which ended in a three-year-long painful recovery (as outlined in the moving episode 'Rewriting Your Birth Story'). Now her daughter is a teen, and in her first episode back, Frank interviews her child about what she's learning in sex ed. (Spoiler alert: the curriculum is frustratingly focused on anatomy rather than on consent.) Frank says she wants to shine a light on reproductive health in the show's new iteration and tell stories that have to do with attacks on bodily autonomy, how technology is changing how babies are made, how we talk to kids about sex, and new research on periods and menopause. In early episodes, New York Times writer Amanda Hess expounds on her complicated relationship with period and pregnancy apps; YouTuber and avid pilot Xyla Foxlin talks about her battle with the FAA over her birth control; and Sara Reardon, known online as the Vagina Whisperer, answers listener questions about the pelvic floor. All the new episodes elucidate supposedly taboo topics, from receiving bad news on an ultrasound to how our mental health is impacted by hormonal birth control to healing after childbirth, with personal and thoughtful stories.

Gwyneth Paltrow was taught X-rated move by Rob Lowe's wife as a teen
Gwyneth Paltrow got an unforgettable lesson in the birds and the bees from Rob Lowe 's future wife. In the tell-all Gwyneth: A Biography by Amy Odell, it's alleged the actress, 52, got an unexpected education in sex during a visit to one of her mom's TV sets. Odell claims that while the Oscar winner was in 10th grade, she tagged along to Florida, where her mom, Blythe Danner, was filming the 1990 movie Judgment. There, young Gwynnie reportedly struck up a friendship with then up-and-coming makeup artist Sheryl Berkoff - who went on to marry Rob Lowe. The star admitted as much on Lowe's Literally! podcast in July 2020. She said: 'First of all, she was dating Keanu Reeves, who was my celebrity crush. And she was so cool. 'She knew that I was sneaking cigarettes, and she would come smoke with me behind the trailer. 'And she taught me how to give a blowjob, and you know, all the classic Sheryl stuff. 'And I just worshipped her. I thought she was literally the coolest chick of all time. 'And she was so awesome to me!' Gwyneth's own charisma drew many of her classmates to her at the Spence, the private girls' school she attended. In an excerpt of the book given to US Weekly, the head of the middle school at the time, Kate Turley, claims: 'She established herself as an interesting person - someone people wanted to hang out with. 'It was easy for her to make her way. But other students seemed to feel threatened.' Odell said: 'One classmate recalled, 'Not one person had a doubt that she was going to be famous.' After all, she might spend a weekend with someone like [her godfather] Steven Spielberg. But she was also polarizing.' One of those polarizing incidents was apparently when Gwyneth, who had inherited her father Bruce Paltrow's bawdy sense of humor, allegedly drew some X-rated art in the school library. 'One day, Spence's rather humorless librarian approached [head of school and Gwyneth's advisor James] Dawson, outraged that a student had drawn, on the partition of a study cubicle, an erect penis. 'She sent all four girls - Gwyneth among them - who had been in the library at the time to Dawson. 'Dawson made an ominous threat: 'All right, folks, this is completely uncalled for and obnoxious, so I'm going to suspend you all and put it on your college record.' ''I didn't do it,' said one girl, who left. The second girl said she didn't have anything to do with it either. 'Down to the third girl and Gwyneth, Dawson doubled down on his ultimatum, prompting the other girl to insist she wasn't responsible and leave.' Pals: Gwynnie lived with Rob and Sheryl for a while when she first moved to Los Angeles and has remained close to the couple Biography: Gwyneth: The Biography will be released on July 29 'Dawson now faced just Gwyneth. 'Gwyneth, you drew the erect penis in the library,' he said. 'I'm not really sure what you're talking about,' she said. 'He presented a picture the library had given him of the masterpiece. 'Oh, that penis,' Gwyneth said. 'I wasn't sure what we were talking about". 'Dawson pointed out that the other students had had to suffer through the confrontation with her. 'Come on, where's your sense of humor?' 'He often found her amusing, but replied, 'In the library, are you kidding me?' Gwyneth became annoyed when she had to clean it up.' Daily Mail has reached out to the actress's representatives for comment. Gwyneth: The Biography will be released on July 29.
