Robyn: There are so many different stories about queerness right now, and I love that so much, because I agree that all of them are vital. As a reader, recognizing your struggle in fiction is so important, but also reading about others who are comfortable in their identities can be so uplifting.
The singer (who coincidentally just dropped the music video for her new single "Greatest Love") took to Instagram on Wednesday night to open up about her real-life greatest love, her husband, just in time for Valentine's Day.
they love how we do it ciara
"It's only right that I join you all and shout out my greatest love too," Ciara shared, speaking her declaration of adoration directly into the camera. "Bae, I just wanted to tell you I love you so much. I love how you are always there for me, how if my wig is tilted sideways, you're gonna help me tilt it right back. You always got my back, you're always there when I call."
"Baby, you're my greatest love for several reasons," Wilson said in the clip. "First of all, you inspire me. The way that you care for others, the way that you make the world a better place. How dedicated you are to being great truly inspires me."
"And finally, you're the sexiest woman on the planet," he concluded. "You're bad to the bone and I'm glad to be your husband and take care of you and provide for you. And yes, I will fix your wig, and yes, I will do whatever you say. I love you."
The cute couple -- who share a 1-year-old daughter, Sienna, as well as Ciara's 4-year-old son, Future Zahir, from her previous relationship with rapper Future -- never seem to shy away from sharing their love with their fans.
Ciara and Russell Wilson's love story is one for the books. Beginning as a friendship, their romance sparked over shared ideology, family values and an instant connection. Together now for five years and counting, the singer and the Seattle Seahawks quarterback are an inspiration for many and undeniably #CoupleGoals.
Ciara met Wilson in March 2015, following her separation from then-fiancé Future, with whom she shares son Future Jr. Her baby boy was 10 months old when the NFL star met Ciara's family. At the time they were just friends.
"He was like this, open arms," she added, spreading her arms out wide. "And he was like, 'I got you.' Just the detail. Whenever he would think about me, he would think about my son. And to love me is to love my son. We come together. It's dope. It's a different level of love."
Their openness and playfulness is just another reason why they are great relationship goals and role models. And not just that, Wilson has consistently been an amazing father figure and stepdad to Ciara's son, even before they started their own family.
"[Ciara]'s been an inspiration since day one -- since moment one," Wilson explained in an interview in 2016, shortly after getting married. "And her little one, too, just watching him. I was saying to somebody the other day, being a stepfather is one of the most loving things you can do. You really learn how to love, especially when it's not yours."
And while they say you shouldn't mix business with pleasure, the "Level Up" singer and Wilson are better together. In April of 2019, they launched their joint company, Why Not You Productions, which develops TV, film and digital projects.
It's not just that they're there for each other and their family. They also give back to the community, volunteering at hospitals, donating money to good causes and speaking out about what's important to them, including the Black Lives Matter movement.
Earlier this year, amid the coronavirus pandemic, the couple shared that they would be pledging 1 million meals to Seattle's Food Lifeline. They also partnered with Wheels Up on the Meals Up initiative and pledged 10 million meals to Feeding America.
The pair also shared the secret they've learned to a happy marriage, with Wilson telling ET in July 2019, "I think the most important thing is, first of all, just loving one another, you know? For love, you'll do anything and you take care of one another. And also communication."
And more sweet little angels they are having. Ciara and Wilson kicked off 2020 by announcing that they are expecting their second child together, her third. In the stunning pic posted at the end of January, Ciara stands on top of a rock formation in Turks and Caicos while sporting a bikini to show off her growing belly.
We love sheer blouses, especially when they're soft and cream. We also love Ciara, especially when she opts for something light and sophisticated. But we do not love the bra she chose to showcase under her simple, see-through top.
Christy Sports really wanted to lean into the organic and natural side of Scandi design, so they selected pieces that look like they were forged in nature themselves. Everything Christy Sports chose has a natural element, wood grain paint, live edge tables, and woven leather like seating. Additionally, they made sure everything was easy to clean material, with nothing fussy or superfluous.
J Designs envisioned this floor as the place in the house with spaces to unplug. They created a relaxed reading nook and creative artist retreat where they wove in a fun green motif throughout to connect the spaces and create a cohesive feeling.
J Designs wanted to create a splash so they carried the green walls throughout the entire upstairs hall, then incorporated a beautiful wall of linen drapes in the artist retreat. The juxtaposition with the green and the softening texture of the linen is magic.
J Designs always try to create at least a few custom pieces for each project. Here they designed a funky chair in the reading nook with a super unexpected shape and a knockout pattern that they just love.
It is so hard for Six Walls to choose just one detail that is a favorite in their little gem of a space. But, if they had to select just one, it would be the sink, because it really was the creative starting point for the full concept of the room. Each design choice connected back to the sink selection during the design development phase of the project.
Spatial Relations loved working with this open plan as it allowed for the visual and functional exchange of interior and exterior connectivity to the outside deck, and the natural environment: a detail, signature to their design brand identity.
The designers both love to mix metal finishes in a room. It has long been a favorite thing for them to do. With the look finally becoming popular again, it only adds to the excitement of being able to create the beautiful combinations in their space.
I am currently an Environmental Engineer for RTI International, a non-profit research institute based out of The Research Triangle in North Carolina. I am a telecommuter, so I have remained in South Carolina even though my new company is in Raleigh, NC. Although I have only been working here for a few months now, I absolutely love it. I have the best coworkers and I get to work on so many interested projects, such as water supply forecasting for major rivers out west, water quality modeling to help inform urban planning, dam break and flood inundation mapping for emergency planning, and even quantifying the value of clean water in honor of the 50th anniversary of the Clean Water Act.
