All About 'Superman' Star David Corenswet's Wife, Julia Warner
Superman actor David Corenswet plays a man leading an epic double-life. The star has some experience there, because he keeps his off-screen world extremely private. Corenswet is married to his wife, Julia Best Warner, with whom he shares one child. But his Instagram is almost entirely promotion for the upcoming DC flick, and he has shared very little info about his family. Here's everything that is known about Warner and her relationship with the superhero. Like Corenswet, Warner is an actor. Per her LinkedIn profile, she studied Fine Arts in Theater Arts Acting at Point Park University in Pittsburgh. According to her IMDb page, she has also tried her hand at producing and directing, and has credits with The Baby Sitters Pub, Ratched, and Pretty Little Things. In 2018, she wrote a tribute to her work at the Pittsburgh Playhouse. She seems to be close to her family, and posted about cutting down the family Christmas tree with other Warners in 2020. And she and Corenswet share a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel named Ira: 'He's less of a doggy, more of a toddler,' Corenswet told People in June 2025, adding that the 7-year-old dog 'has a wonderful mohawk, a natural tuft of hair right between his eyes, which is the reason he's disqualified from being shown [making him] adoptable.' According to an interview with People in June 2025, the pair met as teenagers at a Pennsylvania summer theater program and had a 'slow-burn' romance. They were married in March 2023. In 2022, Warner shared a carousel of pics that included Corenswet. Corenswet and Warner welcomed a daughter in 2024, though they have kept her name private. In his interview with People, Corenswet said, 'I feel like I've been a dad for a long time, and just waiting for a kid to prove it. My dad was an enthusiastic father and stayed home with my sister for a period when she was very little, and was very good with kids. And so I think I just inherited that. I liked being a camp counselor, and I have terrible jokes that nobody laughs at.' The baby arrived in close conjunction with the beginning of his Superman journey, prompting him to add, 'Two big unknown things at the same time. And they were both great things.' Yes, they made their red carpet debut at the Los Angeles premiere of Superman on July 7, 2025. Warner stood out next to her husband in a strapless mint gown. Corenswet wore a navy suit.

Teens, screens, time pressure and other challenges to navigate on a family road trip
If you're going to be road-tripping with your family this summer, get ready to embrace unexpected moments of both connection and inevitable chaos. I found both when I packed up the car with my husband and two kids — one of them a teenager — for the eight-hour drive from Boston to Niagara Falls. We had taken long road trips as a family in the past, but our kids, now 8 and 14, were older. My son, firmly in his 'closed-door, don't talk to me' phase, wasn't exactly thrilled about spending over 460 miles trapped in our smallish Nissan Rogue. We also live in a part of the country where we don't spend much time in cars in our everyday life. How would we all manage the close quarters? Here's some of what I learned — along with advice from the experts — about not only surviving a family road trip but having a good time: First, why do it? Many road-trip veterans cite the chance to bond and create family memories. Eighteen-year-old Samara Worsham, for example, spent 30 days crossing 25 states with her family in 2022. Now preparing to leave for college, she says she cherishes that time on the road. 'There were long stretches with no cellular data, leaving us nothing to do but talk,' she said. Along with visiting U.S. landmarks, Worsham's fondest memories include hotel pool swims with her siblings, and her father's mission to sample every fast-food chain across the country. There are practical advantages to the family car trip too. 'It's more economical than flying, especially with a big family,' says Jamie Davis Smith, a lawyer and writer from Washington, D.C., who takes a road trip every year with her husband and children. 'Plus, you don't have to rent a car at the destination.' Get family input on the itinerary Alain Robert, founder of The Travelologist, a Canadian travel agency, recommends including the whole family in planning. 'Ask what they'd like to see or do. Build around everyone's interests,' he advised. 'Once you have a backbone itinerary, share it and manage expectations.' My family, in particular the kids, wanted to get there as soon as possible. They had their eyes on the destination, not the journey. Include some cheesy stops — if you can take the time Davis Smith said her family loves to discover quirky roadside attractions; on one trip, they had fun stopping at the Unclaimed Baggage Center in Scottsboro, Alabama — a store that sells lost airline luggage. Inspired, I downloaded the Roadtrippers app and mapped out a few detour-worthy stops. Our shortlist included the Jell-O Museum in LeRoy, New York, as well as the Schuyler Mansion (of 'Hamilton' fame) in Albany, New York. But best-laid plans... We quickly realized that an eight-hour haul didn't leave much wiggle room for exploration. Lesson learned: Keep daily driving to six hours or less if you want time to explore. We didn't have time for either of those two stops. We briefly considered bringing Rosie, our 2-year-old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, but the hotel we'd booked at Niagara wasn't dog-friendly. No friends were available to watch her, so at the last minute, we boarded her at our vet — a first for Rosie. We hadn't expected she would need two new vaccines, and we had to squeeze in a vet appointment two days before departure. This meant a steep bill the morning we left, and boarding costs awaiting us when we returned. Travel journalist Kelly Burch, who road-tripped around the U.S. for seven months with her husband, two kids and senior dog, warned that pet policies on the road can be unpredictable. One budget hotel near Yellowstone National Park wouldn't even allow their dog to stay in their RV on the property. 'Triple check pet policies,' she advised. Teens... Knowing my teenager would need space, I splurged on a junior suite. He got his own bed, slept late and had the space to recharge. The suite came with a small kitchen and a breathtaking view of Horseshoe Falls — well worth the extra cost for three nights. If we'd stayed longer, I would have reconsidered the splurge. But since we saved money by not flying, the room felt like a worthwhile tradeoff. ... and screens If your kids are on the younger side, divert them with family car games. 'If you start the screen early, it can be difficult to convince them to do anything else,' says freelance journalist Stratton Lawrence, 43, who has written for Travel & Leisure about his family road trips — without devices. He's driven with his young kids and wife from South Carolina to the Pacific Coast twice, including one three-month stretch on the road. Even older kids, he says, will appreciate something like a deck of cards or a paper atlas to see the geography. 'If you're going to be in a car for 100-plus hours, the kids aren't going to be entertained watching TV that whole time, so you have to have other things,' he said. Overall, I think my teenager thought the trip was OK. His friend happened to be visiting Niagara Falls with her family and staying in the same hotel where we stayed. That was a welcome surprise. He also seemed to like our daytime outings, especially the boat ride into the Horseshoe Falls, where we got drenched with water.

There's even academic guidance to seek out, with Psychologist Stanley Coren's book 'The Intelligence of Dogs' ranking breeds by instincts the ability to adapt. Meanwhile, some will want a dog that has a calming influence on their home and family – avoiding more hyper breeds like Border Collies and Springer Spaniels. These are the 13 calmest dog breeds. 1 .

Barking Dogs 2025: Here are the 20 noisiest and quietest breeds of adorable dog - from silent Basenji to vocal Labrador 🐶
We're a nation of dog lovers, with around one-in-three households including at least one four-legged friend . By far the most popular pet in the UK, they make for wonderful companions, all the while improving both our mental and physical health - and that's a scientific fact. The army of dog owners continues to grow, with 221 different breeds of pedigree dog to choose from, alongside numerous crossbreeds . Choosing the right breed is absolutely essential – for example opting for a small dog if you don't have much room at home, or a hypoallergenic dog if you suffer from allergies.

There's even academic guidance to seek out, with Psychologist Stanley Coren's book 'The Intelligence of Dogs' ranking breeds by instincts the ability to adapt. One thing to take into consideration is whether a dog that barks or howls could lead to complaints from neighbours, particularly if you live in a flat or apartment. Or you may want a more vocal breed to act as a guard dog - a bit of barking is likely to deter most intruders. Whichever is the case, some breeds are far more likley to make a noise than others. Here are the 20 naturally noisiest - and quietest - breeds of dog. 1 . French Bulldog We're starting with the pups that are least likely to bark, or make any other kind of noise. The French Bulldog is the second most popular dog in the UK (behind the significantly noisier Labrador Retriever). It is a particularly good choice for those living in flats, since they rarely bark and don't need a huge amount of room. | Canva/Getty Images Photo Sales 2 . Shiba Inu The highly intelligent Shiba Inu, originally from Japan, is another dog that usually only barks when there is a very good reason for it to do so. | Canva/Getty Images Photo Sales 3 . Cavalier King Charles Spaniel As quiet as they are cute, the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. They may bark to let you know there's somebody at the door, but other than that they are very different from the more yappy-type small dog breeds. | Canva/Getty Images Photo Sales 4 . Dobermann Trustworthy and protective of their families, Dobermanns - also known as Doberman Pinschers - make good guard dogs but are remarkably quiet in normal circumstances. | Canva/Getty Images Photo Sales

Vet says commonly ignored signs in your dog may mean something is wrong
Vet says commonly ignored signs in your dog may mean something is wrong Dr Sean McCormack has listed the easily missed symptoms that may mean you need to take your dog to a vet Vet examining a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Dog owners have been warned of the symptoms that are often overlooked but which could indicate a serious health problem. Head Vet is offering advice on what to do if your pet has potentially serious symptoms. Dr Sofia Izquierdo Sanchez, Senior Lecturer in Economics at Manchester University, said workers taking time off to care for sick pets costs the UK economy £13.8 billion a year in lost wages. Research from reveals 72% of pet owners have pulled a sickie to look after their pet with the average dog owner needing to take eight days off a year. Dr. Sean McCormack, Head Vet at said: 'Whilst some illnesses can't be prevented, ensuring your dog is eating a complete, balanced and nutritious diet, getting the right amount of exercise and having regular health check ups can help to limit the need to take too much time off and your pets living healthier lives.' Dr McCormack provided tips for spotting when your dog might need a vet check: Article continues below Keep an Eye on Their Eating Habits: If your dog suddenly goes off their food or becomes ravenously hungry, it might be a red flag. Changes in appetite can indicate anything from dental issues to digestive upsets or more serious internal conditions. Remember, sudden weight loss or gain is always worth investigating. Check Their Coat and Skin: Your dog's coat is a great barometer of their overall health. Look out for excessive scratching, bald patches, redness, lumps, or a dull, greasy coat. These can indicate allergies, infections, parasites, or hormonal imbalances. A quick daily brush can help you spot issues early. Watch for Changes in Drinking and Urination: If your dog is suddenly drinking more water than usual or asking to go out to pee more frequently, this could be a sign of underlying health issues like diabetes, kidney disease, or a urinary tract infection. On the flip side, straining to urinate or accidents in the house that are abnormal, can also indicate problems. Don't Ignore Bad Breath or Drooling: While doggy breath isn't always pleasant, a sudden increase in bad breath, drooling, or difficulty chewing can indicate dental disease, which if left untreated can affect the heart and kidneys. Regular dental checks and brushing can help keep your dog's mouth healthy. Carolyn Menteith, Behaviourist at said: 'Your dog's behaviour can tell you if they're feeling a bit under the weather or are even in pain or discomfort. Trust your instincts and for any unexpected changes, however subtle, it's time to go and talk to the vet.'
