'The truth came to light through her newly released book, I Am Not Yvonne Nelson, where she shared her struggles and experiences.

One of the major revelations in the book revolves around Nelson's uncertainty regarding her biological father's identity.

She disclosed that her mother has deliberately kept his identity a secret, leaving her in the dark. This left the actress questioning her own lineage and feeling disconnected from her true roots.

The 37-year-old actress made a startling claim that her alleged father, Oko Nelson, is not her biological father.

This led her to question her entire family history and made her realise that she has been carrying the wrong last name all along.

Internet user, Sel The Bomb who delved into the book's contents disclosed that the actress had never met her father and that she is currently estranged from her mother due to this issue.

'A bill that passed the Florida House and Senate unanimously, coined "The Good Dad Act" is now signed into law. The focus — father's rights.

Last month, the ABC Action News I-Team shared the story of Ulysess Carwise, a Tampa father who has been fighting for custody of his now 5-year-old daughter, given up for adoption at birth by her mother without Carwise's knowledge or consent. His ongoing case highlights an often private battle unmarried fathers can face.

Because he is not married to his son's mother, legally, Jennings had no parental rights.

“My name’s on the birth certificate. I’ve been a part of his life since birth, I was there at the birth, but because she decided that she was no longer going to cooperate with me, the law was not on my side anymore," Jennings said. “The judge said that I had to serve her a petition for parenting. And I didn’t know where she was to be able to serve her."'

'Women — even those in Congress — are often the ones who take on many parenting responsibilities. Surveys conducted by the Pew Research Center prior to the COVID-19 pandemic found that women were more likely than their spouses to say they carried more of the load when it came to parenting. In another Pew survey conducted in October 2020, a few months into the pandemic, working moms were more likely than working dads to say their work-life balance had gotten harder since the start of the pandemic.

"Dads need to do our part in advancing policies that will make a difference in the lives of so many parents across the country," Gomez said.

Texas Rep. Joaquin Castro, who joined Gomez in forming the caucus, said men have a role to play in supporting policies that help working families.

"(Women legislators) deserve an extraordinary amount of credit, but they should also be able to count on male legislators to be partners in their fight from the beginning," Castro said.'

'Former Buffalo Bills punter Matt Araiza says he plans to sue the attorney who accused him of being involved in an alleged gang rape of a teenage girl during a college party.

Araiza was featured Tuesday on HBO's Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel in a sit down interview with Andrea Kremer to discuss the lawsuit and the allegations made against him that may have ended his career as an NFL player.

A lawsuit filed in San Diego County Superior Court last year accused Araiza and two teammates of raping a then-17-year-old girl at a Halloween party at an off-campus home where Araiza had been living.

Shortly after the allegations surfaced, the Buffalo Bills released the punter last summer.

The San Diego District Attorney's office completed its investigation in December, stating they reviewed the San Diego Police Department's investigation and had no recommendation by the police department to file criminal charges.'

'The chief executive of OceanGate, who is among the five men aboard the company’s 6.8-metre submersible that went missing on an ill-fated dive to The Titanic, boasted that he didn’t want to hire experienced “50-year-old white guys” to pilot the vessel because they weren’t “inspirational”.

Stockton Rush, 61, made the comments in a newly resurfaced Zoom interview with technology company Teledyne Marine.

“When I started the business, one of the things you’ll find, there are other sub-operators out there, but they typically have, uh, gentlemen who are ex-military submariners, and they — you’ll see a whole bunch of 50-year-old white guys,” he said in the undated clip.'

'Toby Addison, 21, recalled the mortifying moment years prior when he was kicked out of the gym for “creepily” staring at a woman — despite the fact he cannot see — while on the “Happy Hour Podcast” earlier in June.

Addison, who shares his life as a blind person on his TikTok account, @blindtobes, said he was “minding his own business” during a workout when he heard a woman say: “Oh, do you like the view?”

“Obviously I don’t really know where I’m looking a lot of the time,” the content creator shared on the podcast. “I was just staring right ahead and unfortunately there was a woman doing some exercises.”

The psychology and counseling student was shocked when he realized she had come over to talk to him, adding that he obviously didn’t know what kind of exercises she was doing.

For a lot of fathers, this day is rough. Many have been separated from their kids by a legal system that devalues them or considers fathers redundant, only wanting money from them.

To all fathers today no matter where they are at in life, MANN wishes the best day possible for you and hopes that life either gets better for you or stays good.

'More and more women are the primary earners in heterosexual relationships in the U.S., an enormous shift in household financial dynamics from even a few decades ago. But traditional thinking about money and relationships hasn’t changed much, according to a new report, and that could continue to hold women back.

Around 30% of U.S. women in heterosexual couples earn more income than their spouse or partner, according to UBS’s 2023 Own Your Worth report. But just half of those women breadwinners take the lead on financial responsibilities in their households, compared to 79% of men in the same position. And women who earn more are also less engaged in short- and long-term financial decisions, and feel less knowledgeable about investing than men.

Women are also much less likely than men to say financial decision-making is “natural” for them. Less than half—49%—of women primary earners in heterosexual relationships say they prefer that arrangement, compared to 87% of men breadwinners.'

'In the never-ending battle of the sexes, women tend to be the front line. Whether you're on the Left or the Right or dead in the center, a woman's place in society is a frequent and contested topic of conversation. But these days, men and boys are suffering in a multitude of ways. While everyone has been busy asking, "What is a woman," men began to suffer from higher rates of suicide and lower educational achievement. Maybe it's time to ask, what is a man?

'The recent smoky air in New York City caused by Canadian wildfires is a stark reminder to fintech leaders of their role in addressing pressing global issues such as gender parity, financial inclusion, and climate change.

These issues are intrinsically interconnected, and fintech tools have emerged as critical catalysts for progress. All three global matters came to a head during Women's World Banking's Making Finance Work For Women Summit in Mumbai, India, which I attended last month.

Leaders worldwide gathered for two days to discuss how fintech can promote women's economic power, a critical step in the fight against climate change.

'A San Francisco school district suspended a teacher for discriminating against White male students, according to California Public Records Act documents obtained by Fox News Digital.

Nicole Noel Henares allegedly asked White male students in her high school English class to stand up and answer if they "felt like a minority" during the 2022 fall semester.

Henares’ actions made the Lowell High School students feel "confused, sad and that there was no correct answer for them in that moment," they said in interviews with the district.

The teacher allegedly admitted to singling out the White male students "out of frustration and anger" in investigative interviews Oct. 14 and Nov. 10. She claimed the students dominated the class conversation, pushing her to single them out, but the students present denied this.'

'As Father’s Day approaches Sunday, some elected officials in Maryland are spreading a pledge to combat domestic violence.

About 40 Maryland state delegates signed their names to a Prince George’s County poster with a pledge “to never engage in any type of abuse — physical, emotional, sexual, financial or digital.”

Del. Jazz Lewis (D-Prince George’s) led the effort a few days before this year’s 90-day legislation session ended in April. Some of the signatures include Dels. Nick Allen (D-Baltimore County), Kevin Hornberger (R-Cecil), Julian Ivey (D-Prince George’s) and Stuart Schmidt (R-Anne Arundel).

“We’re going to model what it’s like to have healthy, honest relationships, and then go back to our districts, and figure out how we can build our programs that engage with followers of the community in a meaningful way,” Lewis said Tuesday during a domestic violence program in Upper Marlboro.'

'A recent Title IX case at King’s College in Pennsylvania has highlighted what experts say is a new legal strategy for sexual assault victims whose alleged attackers take the aggressive approach of filing a counterclaim.

The strategy hinges on the argument that a malicious Title IX counterclaim can qualify as “abuse of process,” a term that traditionally refers to abuses of the legal process. But a recent report from a federal magistrate judge supports the idea that the Title IX process is quasi-judicial and can be abused just as a legal proceeding can—despite universities’ frequent disclaimers that Title IX processes and legal proceedings are not one and the same.'
