Jennifer Aniston – Shares How Dad’s Death Impacted Her
Beloved Friends star Jennifer Aniston lost her mother, Nancy Dow, in 2016 following a lengthy llness. And in November, the actress shared about the passing of her father, John Aniston. But in the wake of the Days Of Our Lives star’s death, Jennifer told USA Today that her losses changed her own views on health.
“God bless my parents who are no longer with us,” reflected the Friends star. “But they were not the specimens of health.” And though her father “still lived to be 89 years old, shockingly,” Jennifer credited the Days Of Our Lives star’s longevity to “stubborn Greek genes.” Born Yannis Anastassakis in Crete, Greece, John Aniston emigrated with his family to Pennsylvania as a child.
But Jennifer shared that she noticed her mother’s and father’s health issues increase through the years. And that made her recognize the value of fitness and health. As a result, the Friends star claims she thinks she worked as a physician in a past life.
