  • Kate Winslet Welcomes Baby No. 3

    Kate Winslet Welcomes Baby No. 3

    It’s going to be quite the happy Christmas this year for Kate Winslet.

    The actress and her husband of one year, Ned Rocknroll, welcomed a baby boy on Saturday, December 7th at a hospital in Sussex, England

    This is the first child for the couple. Winslet has two children, daughter Mia, 13, from her relationship with filmmaker Jim Threapleton, and son Joe, 9, with filmmaker Sam Mendes.

    Publicist Laura Symons said, “Kate had ‘Baby Boy Winslet’ on Saturday at an NHS Hospital.” Symons added that the actress is “doing great.”

    Though no name has been revealed, many are speculating the baby’s last name will be Winslet instead of Rocknroll, given that her spokeswoman referred to the 9 lb. bundle of joy as “Baby Boy Winslet.”

    Winslet herself never took Rocknroll’s last name. “I was never going to change my name to Rocknroll. I’ve never changed my name to anything so I didn’t see a reason to start now,” said Winslet.

    Multiple media outlets took to their respective Twitter accounts to congratulate the happy couple.

    Rocknroll changed his name from Ned Abel Smith and is the nephew of English business magnate Richard Branson. Rocknroll also works for Branson’s Virgin empire in the space-travel branch.

    Winslet and Rocknroll met at Branson’s privately owned Necker Island where they were also married in December 2012.

    The Oscar-winning actress previously said she has “admiration for mother’s everywhere,” adding, “Being a parent turns you inside out. It completely transforms your life and, of course, your children are your absolute everything.”

    Sadly the actress has received some flack for having three children, each with a different man.

    In the October issue of Vogue, Winslet said, “People go, ‘Oh, my God! Those poor children! They must have gone through so much.’ Says who? They’ve always been with me. They don’t go from pillar to post; they’re not flown here and there with nannies. That’s never happened. My kids don’t go back and forth; none of this 50/50 time with the mums and dads – my children live with me; that is it. That is it!”

    Fans of Winslet will be seeing her a lot on the big screen in the coming months. Her film Labor Day with Josh Brolin hits theaters January 31, Divergent on March 21, followed by A Little Chaos with Stanley Tucci.

  • Kailyn Lowry of Teen Mom Gives Birth to Baby Boy

    Star of Teen Mom 2, Kailyn Lowry welcomed another child into the world this weekend.

    Lowry, 21, and her husband, Javi Marroquin, welcomed a baby boy on Saturday, November 16. The happy couple named the 8 pound, 6 ounce baby Lincoln Marshall Marroquin.

    “I am exhausted, but we are so excited and surprised by our new baby boy,” said Lowry.

    Lincoln is the couple’s first child together. Lowry has a 3-year old son, Isaac, from her previous relationship with ex Jo Rivera.

    The couple has been receiving multiple congratulations from those in the Twittersphere. Marroquin has already taken to his Twitter to thank everyone.

    Lowry has also taken to her Twitter to share her love for the newest addition to the family.

    And this isn’t the first rodeo for Lowry, so she is already aware of what to expect for the coming months.

    As happy as Lowry is to finally meet her new baby boy, she would have liked to meet him a little bit sooner. On October 30 she tweeted:

    In March, sources confirmed the good news that the reality show couple were expecting. One insider shared, “They are overjoyed to give Isaac a sibling. Kail is thrilled!”

    Now that Lincoln has been born, I guess it’s time Lowry eat her placenta like she said she would. In October, Lowry shared on Twitter that she was having her placenta encapsulated to consume.

    Lowry and Marroquin got married in September 2012 after dating for a year. The two tied the knot at a courthouse in Pennsylvania before Marroquin had to report back to duty as a member of the United States Air Force. For their one-year anniversary the reality show couple had a marriage ceremony in front of their family and friends. Lowry’s son Isaac gave her away at the ceremony at Adventure Aquarium in Camden, New Jersey.

  • Christina McLarty, David Arquette Expecting a Baby

    Congratulations are in order! OMG! Insider correspondent, Christina McLarty and her boyfriend, veteran actor David Arquette, are expecting their first child together. According to TMZ, a number of sources close to the couple have confirmed that the former Entertainment Tonight correspondent is actually already in her fourth month.

    One inside source also said, “They were trying to keep this private, but it came as a surprise. They are excited and happy even though this was unexpected.”

    While the two are overjoyed about the pregnancy, the arrival of their little bundle of joy won’t insinuate any wedding bells just yet. According to US Weekly, just last month, the couple addressed engagement rumors, putting the status of their relationship into prospective for fans. “We are totally happy and together in love, but we are not engaged,” she said. “It’s just a rumor that got out of control.” The fans will just have to sit back and see what the coming months will bring.

    (image)   (image)

    This will be the second child for Arquette. The “Scream” actor also has a 9-year-old daughter with his ex-wife and “Scream” co-star, actress Courteney Cox. The two were married for 10 years before separating. Then, after two years of separation, they filed for divorce in June of 2012. Arquette has been dating McLarty on-and-off for almost two years. But, just because they haven’t reached a full consistency, doesn’t mean things won’t progress even further.

    However, on Oct. 1, 2013 Arquette openly declared his love for McLarty on “Watch What Happens Live.” A caller by the name of Nancy phoned in and asked if Arquette was dating anybody. “I’m dating an amazing girl named Christina McLarty. I’m madly in love with her and she’s the love of my life. Absolutely.”

    While this may actually be the statement that started the engagement rumor, it does justify speculation. If Arquette’s confession is anything to go by, once again, we’ll just have to wait and see what the next few months will bring.

  • 14-Pound Baby: Utah Woman Gives Birth To Giant Baby

    A 14-pound baby has been making headlines recently in Utah, after being born months earlier to his parents Sarah and Joel Brandon.

    The baby, Joel Brandon Jr. or J.J., was born in May, and the Brandon parents were totally shocked when he was born, especially since her ultrasound estimated his weight at about 11 pounds.

    It is certainly no common occurrence for a baby to be this big, and this baby may be the heaviest baby that has been born in the US in the past year. Another odd thing about the situation is that Brandon had previously had twin girls, who were on the opposite end of size spectrum, weighing only 4 pounds each.

    She said that her 14-pound baby jumped right into size 2 diapers, and is wearing the same size as his 2-year-old sisters. People that do not know them of course never believe his age either, due to his abnormal size.

    After the delivery of her twins, she was certainly not expecting this. After her big 14-pound baby was born, she was as surprised as anyone would be, and said “When he came out and they put him on the scale and it said 14 pounds even, I was very shocked, to say the least.” The doctor that did the delivery also mentioned that it was the biggest baby that he had ever delivered.

    She also noted that they needed 2 obstetricians deliver him because they knew he was going to big, although they had no idea how big. They struggled to get him out, and J.J. spent the first 10 days of his life in the neonatal intensive care unit because of lung problems, but has done well at home since leaving the hospital.

    In case you are wondering just how rare it is for J.J. to be born as a 14-pound baby, Dr. Robert Barbieri mentioned that “approximately one out of 1,000 babies could weigh 11-pounds, and one out of every 100,000 could weigh 14 pounds.” It is very rare for a baby to be this big, because usually a doctor will induce labor if the baby appears to be oversize.

    J.J., the 14-pound baby was born on May 9, at the Timpanogos Regional Hospital in Orem. He weighed in at 23 pounds for his four month checkup.

  • Tony Parker Will Be The Father To A Baby Boy

    Tony Parker and his fiancee Axelle Francine have just announced that they have a baby boy on the way. This will be the first child that the couple have together. Tony Parker has been dating Francine, a French journalist, since 2011.

    Before he started dating Francine, Parker was married to actress Eva Longoria, which got both of them much recognition, and media coverage. Parker, and Longoria, the former Desperate Housewives star, split up in 2010 after a public sexting scandal between Parker and Erin Barry, the wife of his former teammate Brent Barry.

    Like Francine, Parker is also a native of France. He is a basketball all-star who has been playing in the NBA for 12 years, and has enjoyed much success, including multiple NBA titles with the San Antonio Spurs throughout his career. Parker led his teams to the NBA finals as recently as last year, where they lost to the Miami Heat in a fierce fight that went to game 7.

    Tony Parker released the news about his baby over twitter, through his incredible excitement to be a dad for the first time. He announced that he was very happy, and then immediately told everyone why. Parker seems to be excited about the fact that he is a boy too; could we see his son in the NBA someday?

    He introduced his followers to the big news on Thursday, October 31. He seems to enjoy releasing big news on twitter, since he also nonchalantly announced that he was engaged to Francine over twitter as well.

    He told his followers that he likes to spend time with his fiancee after games, when asked during a Q&A, as a brand ambassador for Tissot, a Swiss watch company. The news of their engagement was revealed in June.

    Tony Parker and his fiancee Axelle Francine are both 31-years-old, and are excited about having their first child together.

    Before meeting Sudekis, Olivia Wilde was married to documentary filmmaker Tao Ruspoli for eight years, and the couple divorced in 2011. She felt that her marriage was simply over, and did not feel the love anymore with Ruspoli, needing to move on.

    She opened up about her relationship with Sudekis earlier this year when saying that she is “blissfully, hopefully, wildly in love” and that the couple also “have sex like Kenyan marathon runners.”

    Jason Sudekis clearly feels the love for his fiance Wilde, and reveals his sweet romantic feelings when saying “I feel like I returned home to myself as an individual through the process of falling in love with the sweetest woman I’ve ever known.”

    Olivia WIlde, 29, and Sudekis, 38 are certainly enjoying a fun life together, and look forward to their new child. Wilde has also expressed interest in wanting more children in the future, and says that three is like a little party.

  • Baby Found in Bag After Teen Mom is Detained for Shoplifting

    After a teen was detained by security guards for shoplifting on Thursday, they made a shocking discovery in the girl’s bag: a dead baby. Seventeen-year-old Tiona Rodriguez (below) said that she miscarried the baby, but police think the baby was born alive and that he may have been drowned or smothered.

    (image)

    The security guards that were talking to Tiona Rodriguez and her friend after they were accused of shoplifting at a Victoria’s Secret in New York City knew that something was very wrong when they noticed a strong odor coming from Rodriguez’s bag. After looking inside, they discovered a baby’s remains. The security guards then called the police.

    Rodriguez, who already has a 2-year-old son, claims she was around six months pregnant and miscarried the baby. She told officers she was carrying around the baby’s remains because she didn’t know what to do. She says that the baby was born on Wednesday and made a Facebook post referencing cramping that day.

    (image)

    Police aren’t buying the teen’s story, as the baby weighed more than eight pounds and is believed to have been born alive. Police suspect that Rodriguez drowned or smothered the baby. The NYPD is waiting for a report from the Medical Examiner’s office, so an official cause of death could take a few weeks. If the report is consistent with what police already suspect, Rodriguez will be facing a murder charge in addition to the larceny charge she and her friend face.

    Most of Rodriguez’s friends and neighbors didn’t know she was pregnant. “I couldn’t really tell because she’s a little heavyset, so I wouldn’t know if she was pregnant or that’s just her,” neighbor Ramon Acosta said. “She’s a nice girl. She doesn’t hang out. She’s always with her family and her son. The baby’s father visits them also. Everybody is surprised,”

    One of Rodriguez’s friends doesn’t believe foul play was involved in the baby’s death. While she didn’t know the teen was pregnant either, Zami Ford said, “She’s a good girl, I can’t believe she would do that. She’s not a harmful person. Basically, she’s kind of person you can chill with. She’s a nice young lady.”

  • Halle Berry Reveals The Name For Her Baby Boy

    Halle Berry and her husband Oliver Martinez recently gave birth to a baby boy on Saturday, October 5th. He is the baby brother of Nahla, who is 5 years old and Berry’s first child. Her and Martinez have been married since July of this year, after being married in an intimate wedding in France. They met on the set of Dark Tide, a film which was released in 2010.

    While the big news of the baby being born was revealed over the weekend, fans were excited to hear the news, but were not able to know his name until now. Their boy’s name is Maceo-Robert. The couple have decided to hyphenate the name in order to give him a combination of the origins between the two of them. People Magazine mentions that the Maceo part of his name is of spanish origin. However, the second part of his name is also linked with Martinez, and is a nod to his father, Robert Martinez, who was a spanish boxer.

    The name Maceo means “Gift Of God.” The couple wanted to pick a name that would work well in France and the U.S. A more modern version of Maceo would be Mateo or Matthew, according to TMZ.

    It was revealed that the couple were expecting a child in June. Berry was very excited to be a mom, but despite the pregnancy she also continued to act and just finished filming a Steven Spielberg drama series that will air on CBS in 2014 called Extant. Upon finding out that she was pregnant, Berry said “It’s one of the best things that happened in my life, for sure.”

    Due to the actress’ age of 47, the pregnancy came as quite a shock to her, but she was very happy to be able to give her daughter a little brother. Berry is an Oscar winning actress, and received the award for her role in the 2002 film, Monster’s Ball. Martinez is a French actor who appeared in numerous French films earlier in his career and has since made the switch to American cinema, with films such as Unfaithful and Taking Lives. He is currently working on a film called The Physician.

  • Oliver Martinez And Halle Berry Welcome Baby Boy

    Oliver Martinez and Halle Berry have welcomed a son in to the world and he was born on Saturday. The couple met in 2010 on the set of film Dark Tide and married in a private ceremony in France in July of this year. This is the second child for Berry, but her first with Martinez. She also has a daughter, Nahla, who is 5 years old.

    Before his relationship with Berry, Martinez gained a reputation as a womanizer, dating several actresses and models including Mira Sorvino and Kylie Minogue. He is also an actor, but of course lesser known than his wife, Berry, the Oscar winner. In addition to Dark Tide, the film in which they appeared together, he has also appeared in a variety of films including Unfaithful, Taking Lives, and Blood and Chocolate. Before he got his start in these types of films though, the French actor acted in several French films and started his career with the film Navaro in 1990.

    Martinez first revealed that the couple were expecting a boy in June, when telling People Magazine “My son will remain an American, but I will remain French.” People Magazine also mentioned recently that before the couple officially made their baby announcement, Berry made an appearance on the Wendy Williams Show in which she discussed Nahla’s desire to be a big sister.

    Halle Berry kept busy with her career, despite the pregnancy, working on a new television drama with Steve Spielberg, which is called Extant, and will air on CBS. She plays an astronaut who returns home after a year-long solo mission in space. The series will premiere in the Summer of 2014. Martinez is currently working on a film called The Physician, which does not currently have a US release date set.

    Due to her age, 47, Berry was shocked to hear the news of being pregnant. Back in April, she said “I thought I was kind of past the point where this could be a reality for me. So it’s been a big surprise and the most wonderful.” She had her first child with ex-boyfriend Gabriel Aubry in 2008. Her next film will be the next installment in the X-Men franchise, X-Men: Days Of Future Past.

  • Pearl Osbourne: Jack Tweets Picture Of Daughter

    Pearl Osbourne, Jack Osbourne’s infant daughter, has been put in the spotlight after having her picture tweeted for all of the world to see. Jack dressed the girl up for Halloween early and gained lots of attention, after her outfit had a large resemblance to her grandpa Ozzy. The Osbourne family has always been known to do crazy things, and dressing up a 17-month-old girl as the famous rock and roll star seems like another wild act to add to the family’s history.

    While Ozzy Osbourne is of course famous for his musical career as a solo artist and with Black Sabbath, Jack became known to audiences from his role on The Osbournes, a reality show which the whole family starred in. Pearl is Jack’s daughter with his wife Lisa Steely; they were married in October of 2012. In a an extra addition, Jack also referenced his father’s famous nickname in a caption to the picture, calling her the “Princess of Darkness.”

    The outfit and the attention that it is getting should cheer up Jack and his wife, who just suffered a miscarriage last month. E Online mentions that the news came just a month after Steely, a blogger, announced that they were looking forward to expanding their family and giving Pearl a little brother.

    Pearl looks just like Ozzy in the picture in a somewhat creepy way, with a long black hair wig and his famous pink tinted sunglasses, his trademark look. Social media outlets have helped celebrities in many ways, as they are now able to share anything that they want with all of their fans (and pretty much everyone else) in a single post.

    Jack is currently a contestant on Dancing With The Stars with his partner Cheryl Burke. He has been sharing several pictures of his happy family in addition to Pearl’s picture, including his sister Kelly, and their mom, Sharon in recent weeks, according to US Magazine.

    There is no word on what Pearl’s famous grandfather thinks of the look, since he is currently on tour in South America. Sharon revealed the information of Ozzy’s whereabouts through a tweet recently.

We totally were expecting it to be (a) boy all along but got very surprised when we found out it was indeed a girl. I immediately went out and brought a cute (little) outfit for her right after the appointment.” Simmons also went on to admit her fears of sharing the news with her father, former Run D.M.C. rapper, Joseph “Rev. Run” Simmons. “I was so nervous telling my dad at first being that I’m not married YET but he was very excited and is supportive 100 percent. His concern is just that I’m happy. Both families are anxiously awaiting the arrival of the new baby girl. She’s coming into two huge families waiting to give her lots of love.” Wayans and Simmons’ little bundle of joy is tentatively expected to arrive February 13, 2014.

    Catriona McGinn Welcomes Baby Boy

    Catriona McGinn and Mark-Paul Gosselaar welcomed the newest addition to their family on Monday, September 30.

    Gosselaar already has two children, 7-year-old, Ava Lorenn, and 9-year-old, Michael Charles, from his previous marriage to Lisa Ann Russell. However, Dekker Edward Gosselaar, is the first child born to McGinn.

    The, “Saved by the Bell”, star says that they are so excited to welcome their little boy into the world. “We are overjoyed with the new addition to our family. We are madly in love with our little boy,” he told People. ”He is healthy and just perfect — all we could ask for.”

    Even though Gosselaar didn’t share the gender of the baby when speaking to People a couple of weeks ago, he still discussed the unique name that they had chosen. “It is not traditional and it is not too quirky. It is different, but it’s not something odd,” he said.

    McGinn and Gosselaar were married in July 2012. Only eight months after exchanging their vows, the couple announced that they were expecting their first child together.

    “We’ve always wanted a big family,” Gosselaar said. “The kids are looking forward to a little sibling, and are asking a lot of funny questions right now.”

  • Rachael Leigh Cook: “It’s a Girl!”

    Rachael Leigh Cook: “It’s a Girl!”

    Rachael Leigh Cook and Daniel Gillies welcomed their first child, a sweet baby girl, into the world on Saturday.

    The couple, who married on August 14, 2004, announced that they were expecting back in May. The “She’s all That” star had to hide her growing belly while she was in the process of filming the second season of “Perception”, but eventually had to announce the pregnancy. Gillies said, at the time, that he did not have a preference on the baby’s gender, but possibly confirmed that the baby would have an unusual name, like most children of celebrities. “A lot of people are asking whether I’d prefer a boy or a girl. In truth, it doesn’t matter to me — I just can’t wait to meet little Keanu Robocop,” he laughed.

    Rumors began circulating on Friday that the baby was here. However, that was not the case and Gillies quickly set the facts straight, via Twitter.

    Then on Saturday, he took to Twitter again, to announce the news everyone had been waiting for: “It’s a girl”.

    Earlier this year, Cook sat down for an interview with long-time friend, Marla Sokoloff. When asked what she was most looking forward to about motherhood, Cook said all she wants is to get the baby here and to have a “healthy kid”.

    “I have very short-term goals in this area! I will be very impressed with myself if I can just get this kid here into the outside world safely. I don’t feel qualified to pull this whole thing off, if I’m being honest. So it’s a cliché but I have to say it, just having a healthy kid is all I want.”

  • Heather Morris, Glee Star, Gives Birth To Baby Boy

    Heather Morris, the actress from the popular show Glee, recently gave birth. She had a baby boy on Saturday, September 28. She plays Brittany Pierce on Glee, the hit television show that blends the genres musical and comedy together. She plays a cheerleader on the show, which is her most well-known role, but she is also a dancer, singer and model.

    Morris is a former back-up dancer to Beyonce, who then turned to acting. She attended the same high school as her long-time love Taylor Hubbell, but the couple did not know each other at the time. Her baby boy is named Elijah and this marks the first child between her and her boyfriend Hubbell, according to US Weekly. She has said that her relationship is most important to her, and would even quit acting if it put too much of a strain on their relationship. Marrying Hubbell and having kids with him has always been a desire of hers, and she is very excited to be a mom.

    She is a 26 year old actress from California and after appearing in the first four seasons of Glee, she will not be returning for the fifth season. Other actors have certainly backed out of the show too, but her decision to quit may have been due to her pregnancy and wanting to be able to spend more time with her baby after the birth. In addition to her role on Glee, Morris also notably appeared in an episode of How I Met Your Mother in 2010, and the film Spring Breakers, among others.

    A source told US Weekly back in April when the story broke, in relation to the pregnancy, that “It was totally unexpected, but they are incredibly happy and excited.” Morris was recently seen running errands while maintaining a low-key profile, looking like she was ready to burst at any minute, states E Online. She also maintained a low-profile and has not been seen in the spotlight much in the past year, after taking a break from acting.

  • Fergie, Josh Duhamel Share Son’s First Pictures

    Most celebrities are relatively selective in determining the right time to go public with pictures of their baby. Fergie and Josh Duhamel appeared to be in that same number as of September 16. When asked when the world could see a picture of their son, Axl Jack, the “Life as We Know It” actor kindly replied via Twitter, stating that he and his wife wanted him ‘all to themselves.’ However, the two must have had a sudden change of her heart.

    On the following day, Fergie and Josh Duhamel proved they no longer had any reservations about offering a glimpse of their first-born, when they debuted the first public pictures of their son to the world. On September 17, the “Glamorous Life” singer and her husband both decided to reveal pictures of their 3-week-old son, via Twitter. The proud mother took the liberty of posting first.

    A couple hours later, Duhamel posted a picture of his own from the day his son was born.

    According to Access Hollywood, the two even decided to share yet another picture of their son on Saturday, just a couple days after debuting his first pictures. However this time, little Axl decided to open his eyes! Josh Duhamel’s version of the adorable picture included a light-hearted caption at the bottom that read, “Go Bison,” – a declaration to the state football team for his home state of North Dakota.

    The couple welcomed their first-born into the world last month on August 29.

  • Nick Lachey and Wife Vanessa Celebrate Son’s First Birthday

     

    This time last year, pop singer Nick Lachey and his wife, Vanessa, embarked onto the road of parenthood with the birth of their son Camden. Now, fast forward 12 months, and it’s Camden’s first birthday. Time definitely flies! The couple showed their admiration with a celebration to commemorate the boy’s special day. But, oddly, the party wasn’t quite what you’d expect from a celebrity couple. In fact, the celebration was a bit more gratifying, because it was mere simplicity at it’s best. No circus, face paintings, petting zoo, or party theme.

    On Wednesday, September 11, Nick’s brother and 98 Degrees band mate, Drew Lachey, and his wife Lea, kicked off the birthday festivities. They came bearing cupcakes, which Vanessa Lachey proudly shared with the world in a Twitter picture.

     

     

    Then, on Thursday, September 12, Nick and Vanessa celebrated the boy’s official date of birth. This time it was Nick’s turn to tweet, wishing his son a happy birthday.

     

     

    According to Reality TV Magazine, the couple agreed not to go overboard for their son’s first birthday, as the celebration was more-less for them, as opposed to him. “I won’t do a pool party for his first birthday ’cause I feel like we have the rest of his life to do pool parties. He’s 1. This one’s for mom and dad,” said Vanessa to People Magazine. The celebration was a small, quaint family affair, just how it should be for a little person surrounded by such an abundance of love. The couple was also gracious enough to show their gratitude to all the fans who extended birthday wishes to Camden as well.

  • Baby Elephant Cries After Being Rejected By Mother

    A baby elephant was recently attacked and abandoned by his own mother at a zoo in China, causing him to cry for hours. Who knew that was even possible? No one is able to tell why, but it appears that the mother was trying to kill her baby, and the zookeepers were forced to keep it away from its mother.

    In this case, it is good that the elephants were in the safety of a zoo, because if they were in the wild, who knows what would have happened to the baby elephant. Several pictures were taken showing tears streaming down from his eyes and down his face.

    The elephant’s name is Little Zhuangzhuang and he seems to be doing much better now. It was originally thought that what the mother did was an accident, which would be the hope if something like this happens shortly after a baby’s birth. They were unfortunately wrong and figured out this sad fact after cleaning up Little Zhuangzhuang and treating his injuries, before returning him to his mother. She was having none of this, and continued to stomp on him, injuring the elephant further, says the NY Daily News. The mother refused to comfort her baby in a surprising act, which is scary to see. The keepers were forced to step in once more and permanently remove the baby from his mother.

    There were a number of pictures taken of the elephant as it continued to cry, after being abused by its mother. He was stepped on just after being born at the Shendiaoshan Wild Animal Nature Reserve in Rongcheng, China. He was recently adopted by an employee of the nature reserve and is doing better now.

    The University of California, Santa Barbara has been studying the question of whether elephants can actually cry and that it seems to depend on what definition we are using for crying. The main part of their finding involves whether or not elephants are able to express emotions and with this instance especially, it appears that they can. According to The Huffington Post, elephants are able to express joy when playing and greeting others by trumpeting and flapping their ears. They have also been known to mourn the dead by touching the bones or circling the body.

    What a tragedy, let’s hope something like this does not happen again.
