She also called out fans who assumed she didn’t have a baby because she was “selfish” and chose her career over having children. When in reality, she was doing everything she could to conceive.
There’s a lesson here, people; if you don’t know somebody’s life story, keep out of their life story.

“She’s always been happy, though,” the insider explains. “Her dogs are her kids to her and why she’s always had them. Her IVF journey was private and hers, and those close to her knew but never asked.”
The source adds: “But she’s at peace and is very happy in her life. She’s in a great place, and she knows that. Kids or no kids, it didn’t change her.”
Another insider added that she’s moved on: “She’s 53 now and knows the [children] ship has sailed, so why not?”

“I was trying to get pregnant. It was a challenging road for me, the baby-making road,” Aniston told the outlet. “All the years and years and years of speculation… It was really hard,” she noted. “I was going through IVF, drinking Chinese teas, you name it. I was throwing everything at it. I would have given anything if someone had said to me, ‘Freeze your eggs. Do yourself a favor.’ You just don’t think it.”
However, she revealed that she’s finally found peace because she knows that her time is past and there’s nothing to keep hoping for.
“Here I am today. The ship has sailed,” she said, adding, “I actually feel a little relief now because there is no more, ‘Can I? Maybe. Maybe. Maybe.’ I don’t have to think about that anymore.”
