Pronounced how typed (Bell-Anna). Belle’Anna was given the nickname Bea from her mother; Who she grew up with, Porsha Richards. Posha never thought to marry her father and didn’t plan to have Bea. Her father isn’t present in her life, he’s what you call a “Deadbeat” dad. He pays his child support, but that’s about it. It's not like she cares though--- her and Porsha don’t have the best relationship. Bea is a Leo and she was born on August 19, 2002. Her best friend since birth is Naura Ayad. Belle’Anna is a very academic person and she loves to party. You’re most likely to see her doing her homework or projects when at a party. And of course her mother is super strict. Bea plans to move out before her senior year of high school, simply because of her mother's strictness. Porsha promised her if she saves up enough money, she’ll let her move out. 

The Daring Darlings aren't so daring as we thought?

Written by Carrington Williams

Welcome back "This is.." Family, today we have everyone's favorite family, "The Darlings". A family filled with secrets and lies...But whose family is normal right? There's a difference between "normal" and "keeping-a-child-secret-for-sixteen-years".

"Adrienne was my girlfriend at the time I got my ex-high school lover, pregnant. Porsha didn't even know of the status of our relationship. I wasn't even aware either were pregnant until Maverick came and a few months later, Posha messaged me on Simbook about Belle." Said Messer Darling. Wow, imagine committing infidelity and trying to blame your partners because you're a douchebag? May I add that he and Mrs. Darling were engaged at the time? What do you mean by girlfriend Messy Messer? I know the burning question is.."Why now?"

"Why now? Well, I want the world to know who my family is. It's extremely hard dating someone outside of your race, you know? So between the many death threats and Adrienne's pregnancy? I was stressed. So when Porsha reached out...I ignored her. I was 27 and my career was taking off, I couldn't let this mishap ruin my career because I was horny and young." Messer continued. Now we're getting to the truth! Here you have it, folks, Messer Darling has admitted to not being shit! Also knowing Adrienne was pregnant. And that concludes "This is...(MESSY)Messer". #BOYBYEMessyMesser #CancelMesserDarling #AdrienneDeservesBetter #WhenIsAdrienne'sNextMovie

"This is...interracial love"

"I think what was really hard...was explaining to the kids their black and white. 'But people at school call us black'. It was so difficult explaining to them, they're biracial and have two different sides to them. Blair is kinda the only one with kinky hair. Maverick and Brysen, their hair ranges from straight to curly a lot." Adrienne confessed.

Love comes in many shapes and sizes and in this case, skin tone. No one can deny the cultural differences that exist here. Look at the wonderful and beautiful set of kids they made! True love shows through family first.

"My parents are...racist, which is why we didn't date in high school. But they're coming around, mainly because of the kids. I knew Porsha, we were best friends because of cheer. There was always resentment because of Messer. "

The way people are treated because of their appearance is shameful. Back then, I think I was in the eighth grade, and I was obsessed with the couple! Messer used to take her to basketball and football games, they were cool. It is true though, many did hate Messer because he married a white woman. People assumed he was a colorist, but the love between them is true. He loves her for her, not because of her skin and the same for Mrs.Lauren-Darling.

"I love what Messer and I made. I look at my kids every day and start crying. To think two different people from different settings came together and made this beautiful and wonderful blend...warms my heart. "

Congrats on sixteen years of marriage Mr. and Mrs. Darling! Can't wait to see what's next for this couple. "I know they can't hear me...but I want to end it off. I'm Adrienne Lauren-Darling and this is...Interracial love!"

Belle'Anna's Interview

I was honestly shocked my former classmate ok-ed an interview between the two of us. Belle'Anna is the daughter of Porsha Richards and Messer Darling.

Q: We're curious, whom are you dating and how long has it been? What happened to aspen?

A: Aspen broke up with me after prom. I was so hurt and sad. My bestie Naura wasn't having it though. So we'd go out. One day we went mini-golfing and Colt walked up to me, "Wow, you're gorgeous. I hope this doesn't sound weird..but I follow you on Simstagram and it's crazy I'm seeing you in person." It was funny though because his family is famous and wealthy! Like he was fanboying and it was so cute. It started off as a friendship until he expressed to me how he felt about me...then late April he asked me out. We've been to get her for four months, five next week.

Q: Are you going to college?

A: Yes, I'll be attending Howard in a few weeks

Q: What's your major and/or minor?

A: I'm majoring in Media...and my minor is acting

Q: Do you plan to marry Colt?

A: *Turns around* Is Colt in here..*laughs* I do, he talks about it all the time. He wants four kids!

Q: Do you want kids?

A: I already feel like a mama because of Naura. I live with her and Silas, her son. For the most part, she takes care of him...but I hate when date night comes because Silas wants me to sing, read, dance, cook, and play! I order zoomers delivery and put on some kids toons. But I do want kids. I want black kids though. It's been a dream of mine to raise black kids. Colt agreed, but he really wants kids of his own.

Paragraph by grad photo:

POV Jer'isha Lloyd

After Bruch, the twins drove me back home to pack my things. Both my parents can barely take care of themself, so my big cousin Esmee took me in. I'm so thankful for my cousin and her family. Asp and Monroe also had an audition, so they dropped me off.

"Jer, is that you?" A voice asked. It sounded like it came from the kitchen. When I walked in I saw Mama cooking and the whole time she kept shaking. I sighed, "Mama, come here. You know you're supposed to be resting." Mama suffers from vigilantism and Alzheimer's.

"Did you want me to prepare tom-" Mama's nurse Susan walks in and instantly takes over the food Mama was preparing, "Angla, I told you to fetch the ingredients and that was it."

Mama starts crying, "I'm so sorry Bethany, I didn't mean to intrude." Susan and I both look at one another and sigh. Quickly, we escort Mama to her room and help her into her bed. I looked around and sighed, dang, I missed dad. It's always been like that though. When I turned ten, Mama was diagnosed with "Alzheimer's". In which occurred Mama to be fired from her job. She had cursed someone out during a meeting and ran around the office laughing. She couldn't even believe she had done something like that; she was extremely embarrassed. It all worked out for the best though, people from her job had felt so bad. They started donating food and help. Even the local church started helping. New Hope's Baptist Church raised over $30,000 for Mama and us. But all that money went towards every hospital bill and prescription for Mama. Whenever Mama does something wrong, something sparks and she calls people "Bethany." The doctor thinks there's a possibility she might have "Spilt personalities" too. Which made Father pick up three more jobs. Which is my they can't take care of me anymore.

Nurse Susan told me she has Mama under control and told me to go pack my bags. "Love you, Mama." I muttered as I rested a kiss on her cheek. Getting up, I stood in the doorway staring back at the woman who raised me for half of my life. Nurse Susan started to read her to sleep. And I turned around and started my walk towards my room. I feel so bad for Mama and Daddy. I feel as if I got out and they didn't. I remember when Cousin Andrew gave daddy that Million Dollar check, he was so pissed and embarrassed. My dad rather struggle than accept money from anyone, which is crazy; he accepted the money from the church. But I guess that's because he thought we would only need it for Mama's hospital bills.

An hour later I packed my once dream room, into five boxes and suitcases. Still can't believe I'll be living in the Hamptons. When Aspen took my last suitcase to the car, it set everything in stone. I take a deep breath as I exit out of my home, "Goodbye New Hope, and hello Hamptons." I was told by the twins, Cousin Esmee has already designed my room. I doubt I'll like it. Yes, I am extremely close with Cousin Esmee, but sometimes even she doesn't understand me.

I guess I was wrong, I ended up loving my room. Which is in the basement.

I turned to the showcase of guitars," Uncle Myle-"

Cousin Esmee smiles as she cuts me off, "Yes, he always wanted you to have it. I didn't know how to give it to you... you know... with the Death of my parents and your family problems." I pulled Cousin Esmee into a hug, "Love you, Big Cuz." And I appreciate everything she has done for me.

"I'm honestly happy I'm not the only girl in this house anymore." She says as she sits on my bed, "You should be leaving though." I look at her with a confused face. I would like to get settled in and enjoy my new big and spacious bed.

Before she could say anything else, the twins came rushing down the stairs. Aspen took the room in all its glory, but he tried to not let it distract him. He had a great plan, "Hellooo, we need to be leaving." He demanded, "Ma and Dad, rent a house somewhere in the Hamptons and we'll be there for 7 days."

POV: Belle'Anna Darling

UGH! Another day in this horrendous house! Thank God I'm going out with the gang. Before I could even breathe this morning— My mother Posha was in my room yelling at me. I understand this is my first ever "C" on a test...but girl it's most definitely my last dealing with you. Porsha has always been on my ass for the simplest things. I think I'ma apply for a job at Naura's Family Vet because I'm ready to move out. And my father, you ask? I don't know him and have never met him. I only know he looks just like me and his name is Messer Darling. The fuck type of name is Messer?

(LOL, I thought it said brunch and I'm sorry....but I'm not fixing it!)

Man, why did Aspen ask us to be here so early? I love the twins dearly...but they're doing too much. Yes, the boys are famous because of their ridiculously hot father-- but why they gotta fuck with my sleeping schedule? I don't mean to get off topic but.....

Mr. (Andrew) Martinez, Monroe, and Aspen.

But I mean...just look at their dad... How can a sim be this hot? But like I was saying. We're all gathered at "Sarah's" for brunch. Only for the simple reason that Aspen wanted us all to start hanging out again. I haven't seen the twin since the beginning of school. They were on tour with Mr. Martinez all school year. The funny thing is, Aspen is starting to act and Monroe is more of an influencer and a singer. And they're kinda our glue. The girl sitting next to me...I don't even know her. Jer'isha is their cousin and she's extremely pretty. I remember Micheal liked her...

Then you know...Hot girl summer came......BTW WE'RE NOT DATING! Babes... it's hot girl summer...no, ma'am. You can never take the city out of this girl.

"I really missed you guys." spat from Aspen's mouth as he continued to chow down on his "veggie" burger...btw, ew. "I'm sorry we haven't been here to hang. Promise to not hate us too much."

"Yea, yea, yea, whatever. We missed y'all, y'all missed us. I just want to know if Mr. and Mrs. Martinez will let y'all come to my party. Y'all gotta turn up! I'ma get some big booty bit-"

Naura abruptly cuts me off with her hysterical laugh, "Yea no. The Twins can't be caught in a scandal."

Here goes Mama Naura. Which brings me to think—she's still crushing on Monroe; someone she's been looking at all day...well, morning. I told her to ask him out before he had left for London last year. But of course--she let her toxic father control her! Hell, just to let her breathe, she spends the night at my house. It's ok though, Ms. Youtuber will be moving out soon. I stared at her and she giggled, "Whatever." she mouthed and I flicked her off. Aspen gasped, which caused us all to laugh. A few minutes later we ate and caught up with one another. Aspen explored his sexuality, Jer'isha is now going to our school and she's moving in with the twins, Monroe sings now, and that's about it. I mean Micheal said something about an early summer fling....but no one knew who he was talking about and I wasn't paying attention. I had just thought about it when Naura texted me about it. I'm not going to bore you with that conversation though. I don't even like Micheal. I just wanted a nut and I dipped. We slutting these boys out all summer. I don't know though, Aspen looks good. He's definitely the cute twin.

"So how does that work Asp? Like are you gay now?" asked a very confused Naura. Please excuse my very ignorant friend. She comes from a very dull household.

Aspen chuckles, "Honestly, I'm just human and living life at this point." When he said that, it confused Naura even more— so he continued to say, "Meaning I'm not living life with labels. I am Aspen Myles Martinez and I plan to live life to the fullest."

LORD, could Aspen be any hotter... Naura was STILL lost so I had to explain, "Basically... it's none of your—OR anyone's business Naura." She got it now, but she's a little hurt. I mean it's not her business to know unless she wants to get in his pants. AND she bet not, that's my twin.

After that nice and friendly exchange. It was time for us to leave. Naura and I have a nail appointment, the twins have an audition, and Micheal is visiting family. We started to say our goodbyes and Monroe pulled me to the side, "Wow, you somehow managed to look even hotter than the last time I saw you." Which left me completely dumbfounded. Before I could retort, Asp had yelled for him, "See you tonight." left Monroe's lips, then he disappeared into the distance.
