Lifetime is reaching back into the headlines for The Bad Orphan, a psychological drama premiering on the network on Saturday (June 22).
Inspired by a true story, The Bad Orphan centers around a married couple who adopts an 8-year-old orphan with special needs. According to the movie description, the couple’s “ideas of a perfect family come into question when they discover that Gabby is a troubled little girl, and the family begins to believe things aren’t what they seem. As the unsettling behavior of their ‘child’ worsens and lies are uncovered, cracks in the family dynamic form with Jessica increasingly becoming concerned that adopted daughter Gabby is a threat to their family. Is Gabby just an innocent little girl? Or is there more to her story?”
The Bad Orphan stars Betsy Brandt, Chloe Coco Chapman, Mark Taylor and Eve Edwards. The movie was inspired by the real-life story of Natalia Grace, a Ukrainian-born orphan with dwarfism who was adopted by a married couple, accused of being an adult and later abandoned by the couple. Grace, now 20, shared her story in the Investigation Discovery documentary series, The Curious Case of Natalia Grace.

It’s designed for ages 7-10, but there’s a good chance that adult fans of the show will want a copy. The 90-page coloring book features original illustrations of fan-favorite Abbott Elementary characters including Janine, Ava, Barbara, Melissa, Jacob, Gregory and Mr. Johnson. The book, illustrated by Chelen Ecija, features quotes from the show such as “Don’t tell me what kind of day to have,” “Abbott is a special place” and “This is a classroom, not a hoagie stand.”
The coloring book is available for pre-order at Walmart, Amazon, Target, Barnes & Noble and Thrift Books.
Created by and starring Quinta Brunson, Abbott Elementary centers on a group of Philadelphia teachers (and a principal). The ensemble cast includes Tyler James Williams, Lisa Ann Walter, Chris Perfetti, Janelle James and William Stanford Davis.
Abbott Elementary is on hiatus for the summer, and the coloring book will likely be released before the new season arrives.
Season 3 of Abbott Elementary wrapped in May following another successful run for the series, whose third season premiered with over 5.9 million viewers across TV and streaming platforms.
Want to catch up on previous seasons over summer break? Abbott Elementary is available on Hulu and Max.

If you’re looking for a reliable fan that won’t let you down when the heat cranks up, turn to Lasko. The brand’s 20-Inch Classic Box Fan features a “weather-resistant motor” with three speed levels, and it snagged a 4.4 out of 5-star customer rating at Walmart.

Lasko 20-Inch Box Fan

I purchased this fan from Walmart during the start of the pandemic and it’s held up over the last four years (and counting). Though I don’t use it as often as I used to, it’s had a spot in my bedroom since 2020, and not just during the summer months. The Lasko Box Fan will carry you through any kind of heated situation, no matter the season. And if you’re a hot sleeper, it’s great for helping you keep cool at night.
The fan isn’t particularly loud, but not as quiet as the product description would have you believe. While it barely makes noise on its lowest setting, it’s certainly louder when cranked up to the highest setting.
Available in white, black, blue and purple, the 20-inch box fan comes equipped with an easy-carry handle and a removable front grill and blades for easy cleaning and overall maintenance. Plus, there’s no setup necessary: Simply pull it out of the box and plug it in.
The fan got a price cut just ahead of Walmart+ Week, a weeklong event where Walmart+ subscribers can enjoy exclusive savings from June 17-23.
Lasko’s box fan is also available at other retailers, such as QVC, Target and Amazon.

ASAP Rocky is on daddy duty in Bottega Veneta’s Father’s Day campaign released on Sunday (June 16). The Harlem rapper, who shares sons RZA and Riot Rose with Rihanna, stars alongside their boys in the adorable campaign.
On Sunday, Rocky took to Instagram with a touching Father’s Day tribute thanking his family, Bottega Veneta and artist Carrie Mae Weems, who also stars in the campaign. The ad features Rocky playing with 2-year-old RZA and 10-month-old Riot Rose.
“It was a pleasure to work alongside my children and family x Matthieu Blazy x Bottega Veneta x Carrie Mae Weems to bring u this heartfelt Father’s Day piece,” he wrote. “This special moment captures the vulnerability, love and interaction between my sons and I, I’m proud 2 be the man they call Dadda ❤️ Happy Father’s Day to all proud dads out there.”

Rihanna replied to the post writing, “My baby daddy!!! Happy Fathers Day boo.”
Rocky, who launched the whiskey brand, Mercer + Prince in 2022, was announced as a brand ambassador for the Italian fashion house and has been spotted in several Bottega pieces including a giant pink Andiamo tote bag that he sported on his birthday last October.
In a recent interview, the 35-year-old father of two opened up about trading in his “playboy” persona for partnership and parenthood.
“This player persona is very pushed,” Rocky told DAZED magazine. “When you think about a rapper, you think about adolescence, about the single bachelor lifestyle. When you think about ASAP Rocky, you think about a playboy, pretty boy, bras being thrown on stage. This is about me as a one-woman man, as a family man. It’s about what completes my life now: being present as a partner and a parent.”
