The Stream examines the growing trend of women adopting the traditional stay-at-home lifestyle in the US.
In the West, a large number of young women are embracing life as “tradwives” instead of working for themselves. They are making homemade meals, perfecting their homemaking abilities, and enjoying the promise of husband-care, all while keeping it Instagram-ready. But what’s driving this return to domesticity, and is the glossy portrayal of stay-at-home life on social media as implausible as it appears?
As she enjoyed a leisurely day out in London, Geri Horner’s eldest child, Bluebell Madonna, resembled the Spice Girls powerhouse.

In her prime, Geri Horner’s daughter wore the same outfit as the Spice Girls star. Since her relationship with Sacha Gervasi, Geri’s eldest child, Bluebell Madonna Halliwell, rarely speaks in front of her famous mother these days.
The 19-year-old, however, embraced the recent warmer weather as she walked through the capital while making a phone call on a leisurely day out in London. Bluebell wore clothing to the warmer weather.
The teen chose to enjoy a splash of color with her bold appearance, in contrast to her mother’s all-white wardrobe. A daring split up appeared on the front of her thighs, which she wore in a light and dark blue floral-patterned dress. Bluebell chose a pair of blue Adidas trainers, which added a touch of casualness to her glamorous outfit, despite the fact that Geri is known for her bold footwear choices.

She freely swept her auburn hair down her back and tucked it all in a neat ponytail. She complemented her appearance with a silver necklace, dainty hooped earrings, and oversized black sunglasses.
At the Burberry Fashion Week winter show earlier this year, Bluebell and her famous mother took to the stage. After only six weeks, Geri and Sacha, her husband’s singer, Geri, split up. However, Geri continued to give birth to Bluebell in May 2006.

And while Geri keeps Bluebell and Monty out of the spotlight, she did post a photo of her daughter’s GCSE results day success on social media in 2022.
Geri wrote alongside the snap, “SO proud of you Blue, all A stars Nine GCSEs,” and Bluebell looked overjoyed as she posed in the family home. You put in a lot of effort. You motivate me. “Girl power”
However, with her two children and Christian Horner, a former Red Bull Formula One boss, behind closed doors, Geri revealed even more about her life last year. Geri stated in an interview on Cressida Bonas’ Lessons from Our Mothers podcast that she tries to be the mother she can share whatever is happening.

18 and 19 are really challenging, in my opinion. Being an adult for a toddler is similar. When a toddler is learning to walk, they are taking the steps, but somehow they want to know that their mother is there, and I believe that is true between ages 18 and 19. You want your own freedom, but you also want to check on your parents just in case.
Additionally, she previously claimed that Bluebell also refers to Christian as “daddy”. She stated to the publication, “I never made them feel forced to find their own way.”
She chose to call him [Christian] Daddy, which she did. Their bond is incredible. After having me to herself for so long, Bluey suddenly had a little stepsister, who is just so sweet and is now a baby brother, making a huge change.
She is a great child, smart and funny, and has a big heart, even for a young girl. She deserves praise.
One person was killed in an auto accident at the Idi-Iroko axis of the Ikorodu Road, and two others were hurt in another.  ,
This was confirmed by a statement released on Tuesday by the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority.
Taofiq Adebayo, the director of LASTMA’s Public Affairs and Enlightenment Department, claimed that the collision occurred when a fully loaded commercial Mazda bus, competing for the right to exit from the Agric axis, collided with a quick-moving articulated truck with plate number EKY 121 YJ.
A loaded truck with registration number “was discovered by security personnel. A fully loaded commercial Mazda bus with registration number EKY 121 YJ. LND 490 SD collided as the bus was recklessly battling for the Agric axis’ main carriageway right of way.
Read more about the NSIB’s investigation into the Abuja train accident and the injuries reported in 12 other articles.
One passenger, precariously seated in the Mazda bus’s doorway, was tragically thrown from the vehicle and tragically crushed beneath the truck’s rear tires in the horrifying incident, which left the other passenger dead instantly.
The Lagos State Ambulance Service (LASAMBUS) immediately transported two additional passengers, both of whom were injured, to the Ikorodu General Hospital for urgent medical care, he said.
According to LASTMA, Nigeria Police Force officers have given the family the remains of the deceased.
Adebayo noted that Owutu Police Division personnel had stepped up their security support for the coordinated rescue operations by LASTMA.
The accidented vehicles, the commercial Mazda bus, and the articulated truck were all escorted by LASTMA officials, he said, “to restore unimpeded vehicular movement across that corridor.”

I’m glad I did.” Since I first received them, they have always been my go-to pair of shoes. They are by far the most comfortable pair of shoes to wear all day”!
The praise continues, “I don’t just wear these for shopping, then to the gym, and so on.” I didn’t have to break them in at all, and I found them comfortable from the beginning. Some reviewers advise against purchasing if you have weak ankles, but I don’t think that because of how well they provide excellent support all around. Overall, a fantastic pair of shoes with a tan and white sole for everyday wear. I adore them without a doubt”!
I also have 19 pairs of these trainers that both have “stand on air” and “air around you.” Very comfortable and appropriate for the majority of my polo shirts at work. Love them . Keep this aesthetic, but we need more vibrant colors.

Celtic’s business in this transfer window “reeks of incompetence”. It’s an “absolute embarrassment.” Fans are “just disappointed” rather than “no longer surprised.”
The Scottish Premiership champions ‘ board are “actively managing a decline”, and the failure to significantly enhance the squad “feels like self sabotage”.
Brendan Rodgers’ departure as manager of the Glasgow outfit “would be justified in this time,” according to Rodgers, who has “proved again that they are not a serious football club.”
It is impossible to describe the anger currently raging around the city’s east end as a result of saying that Celtic fans are unhappy with how the summer has gone.
The fans are revolting against the board for not investing. For doing the same thing, the manager has aimed a few barbs at his superiors.
And those fissures appear to be causing only one thing now, with Rodgers’ deal up and the season’s conclusion.
On the pitch, an expensive and mortifying Champions League exit and meek Old Firm performance ramped up the rage even more.
How the final day of the window came to an end?
Rodgers and the Celtic fans’ frantic deadline day signings were unsuccessful.
Just one player – Tunisia winger Sebastian Tounekti – arrived, while Adam Idah was allowed to join Swansea despite Rodgers ‘ insistence a few days prior that the striker was going nowhere unless a replacement had been secured.
Celtic already needed one striker because Kyogo Furuhashi’s replacement, Kyogo Furuhashi, was unable to do so after leaving in January. They are now two short.
The mooted arrival of former Leicester City striker Kelechi Iheanacho, who is now a free agent after his Sevilla contract was cancelled, will do little to quell fan anger.
Kasper Dolberg, a £8 million striker for Anderlecht, was on Celtic’s radar as they attempted to close a deal, but the Dane is reportedly set to make a return to Ajax.
In the final moments of the window, the Scottish champions were desperately searching.
Chelsea striker David Datro Fofana reportedly snubbed them in favour of English League One Charlton, only for that move to ultimately fall through. No dice were played either way when Sekou Mara from Strasbourg was linked further.
Who have Celtic signed this summer?
JavaScript must be enabled in your browser to play this video.
Celtic have brought in 11 signings this window, but only four look like they could be starters in Rodgers ‘ strongest XI.
Tounekti, Benjamin Nygren, and Michel-Ange Balikwisha all appear to have been recruited with the intention of becoming regulars, while Kieran Tierney will play when he is fit.
The rest are bench players, project players, or young loanees.
Given 11 first-team squad members – and further 12 youngesters – have left this summer, it could be argued that it balances out.
Can Nicolas Kuhn and the long-term injured Jota be replaced by Tounekti, Nygren, or Balikwisha? Are Greg Taylor and Jeffrey Schlupp’s left-back positions improved by Tierney and loanee Marcelo Saracchi? And who replaces Idah and Kyogo?
Rodgers has only two striker options in attack: rookie summer signing Shin Yamada, Callum Osmand, who has been playing for the B team, and 22-year-old fringe player Johnny Kenny. Daizen Maeda will need to be moved from the left wing to fill the void.
Even Tounekti’s purchase raises questions. Rodgers is quoted as saying the winger can “operate on both sides” yet the 23-year-old clearly favours the left, having played 70 games on that flank compared to just eight on the right.
Is there now a balance between Celtic’s overstocked left-sided players and the newly acquired Balikwisha, who looked reluctant to take players on on during his debut in Sunday’s derby draw at Ibrox?
When you consider all of that, Celtic leave the window more vulnerable than it was when it first opened, which is strong evidence.
What does it mean for Rodgers?
After calling for reinforcements numerous times for months, Kairat Almaty humiliated Rodgers’ side in ignominious fashion.
The manager’s contract expires in the summer, but he will still have to meet stringent demands for the Europa League and domestic competition.
His first spell ended in the middle of a third campaign, with the Northern Irishman leaving under a cloud for Leicester City. Rodriguez has vowed to extend his second contract with Celtic.
What are the fans saying?
John: Time will tell if we pay the price, but that’s just not good enough. They had plenty of time to sign and replace, but they waited until the last minute in order to avoid the cheap options, and they gave up. I fear a season of discontent and change is ahead, all because they won’t spend a reasonable amount on strengthening the team, We’re not asking to bust the bank, but at least open the wallet and take a look!
Matt: Football is not the only source of frustration at Celtic. A disconnect has been forming between the club’s management and the supporters for years. There has been no attempt to bridge that gap. This is made worse by the AGM’s glib putdowns against the Old Firm. The wise Celtic supporters understand that this is just a distraction by stoking the division. It assumes we are stupid. Not at all.
Joe: The board consistently exhibits indecisiveness and stalling. Business should have been done several weeks ago. They have to pay more than £40 million. No longer amused, but instead dejected once more.
Cam: Celtic’s approach in the transfer window is “hit and hope” at times. When the plan to bolster the squad actually should be in place before the window even opens, it lacks ambition throughout the entire window. Beyond the manager and the team, the scope is club-wide.
Ed: The real shock for me here is the fans are surprised. This is repeating history. Although it’s a slightly worse case, we’ve all been aware of this before on occasion. Shameful at board level.

Gary: Embarrassing when a club the size of Celtic can’t keep hold of their best players. Even worse, when they are sold on for a profit, they can’t seem to find a replacement for them. If Brendan had no such high ambitions, he would have to step down.
James: Celtic have proven once again they are not a serious football club. I once believed it was due to lack of ambition on the part of the board. More alarmingly, it has become clear that they also lack the ability. Unfortunately, there will be no consequences. Nothing will alter.
Charlie: Surprised, disappointed, but not overwhelmed. This is not progress, it’s not even consolidation.
James: I believe that the club should be explained to the current owners. Is Rodgers in complete control over signings? And if so, he must be held to account and explain why his big signings have not produced. More accountability must be exercised between the board, the manager, the players, and the supporters.
Gordy: The only word that describes it is horrifying. We have had the whole summer to look for replacements for the players we knew were leaving. The club is left in a ridiculous situation because of the club’s bang average manager (for not pushing the board for what he knew he needed), fantastic support base, fantastic stadium, and fantastic stadium. The hiring team and the board are dishonest for putting us in this predicament.
Stephen: The recruitment team, and board, have massively let down everyone associated with the club. Idah’s decision to let him leave after realizing we needed to add options upfront beggars belief and smacks of self-sabotage. Fans of Celtics are embarrassed and disappointed.
Benny: Where do you start? lack of empathy Unlucky ? No, it’s mismanagement and arrogance from a board who have previous for this shambolic amateurism. The manager’s departure would be more than justifiable. Only words can adequately describe this window and others, shameful and embarrassing. I dread the Europa League upcoming ties with this squad.

Only four of the 11 signings Celtic have this year appear to be starting positions in Rodgers’ strongest XI.

Take all that into account and there is a strong case to be made that Celtic leave the window weaker than when it opened.

What does it mean for Rodgers?
After calling for reinforcements numerous times for months, Kairat Almaty humiliated Rodgers’ side in ignominious fashion.
The manager might be forgiven for weighing the situation and his team before deciding that his reputation can only be harmed in the upcoming months due to the stringent Europa League and domestic demands that are currently looming.
Anything other than a 14th league title in 15 seasons will be unacceptable but will a man who has revelled in Champions League football in recent times feel fulfilled by yet more domestic dominance?
The Northern Irishman left Leicester City in the middle of a third campaign without a doubt.

Benny, where do you begin? Ineptitude? Unlucky ? No, it’s board misconduct and haughtiness that have caused this abominable amateur behavior. The manager would be more than justified for walking away. Only words can adequately describe this window and others, shameful and embarrassing. This current squad’s upcoming matches in the Europa League drew my attention.
