Taylor and Travis. Beyoncé and Jay-Z. Katherine Ryan has noticed a pattern and it all comes down to who was born first. Holly Wainwright unpacks the theory that eldest daughters keep ending up with youngest sons and Jessie Stephens has a confession about the charming men she used to date.

Plus, a woman named Kim House charges $85 an hour to run other people’s homes like corporations. Jessie asks whether what we all actually need is a household manager.
