Jennifer Aniston Reveals While She’s Yet To Have Children

For years the ‘Friends’ actress Jennifer Aniston was placed under a particular place by critics who had no idea what she was going through.

The thing is, after Jennifer and her ex-husband Brad Pitt called their marriage quits, it’s always been of the speculation that Jennifer was the reason her marriage with the actor didn’t last.

Jennifer and Brad were married for five years before they divorced, and fans asserted that the reason for the divorce was because Jennifer refused to bear a child for Brad Pitt. They claimed that Jennifer chose her career which was doing very well, over having a child.

To crown it all, few months after his divorce from Jennifer, Brad married fellow actor Angelina Jolie, and together they welcomed a child. Brad and Angelina ended up having six children together.

Jennifer Aniston — How Jennifer Handled The Procreation Pressure

Although Jennifer and Brad cited in their breakup post that their reason for splitting had nothing to do with the child bearing rumor circulating the internet, it didn’t stop the rumor one bit. The pregnancy thingy got so serious that when she got married to Justin Theroux, the world came back to check if she has taken in after three years of the marriage.

Jennifer called out her critics for choosing to not let her be, for always mounting on her the pressure to procreate, and accusing her of choosing her career over that. According to Jennifer, “women are somehow incomplete, unsuccessful, or unhappy if they’re not married with children. For the record, I am not pregnant. What I am is fed up,” wrote Jennifer. “Here’s where I come out on this topic: we are complete with or without a mate, with or without a child. We get to decide for ourselves what is beautiful when it comes to our bodies. That decision is ours and ours alone.”

One would think that after calling her critics out, the narrative would change. Unfortunately, it got worse. Unknown to the world that sat comfortably in their houses to judge Jennifer for not wanting to bear a child, Jennifer actually wants to have at least one child of her own.

Sometime last year, Jennifer revealed via Hollywood Reporter that she had been taking the pregnancy comments to heart before but not anymore. “I used to take it all very personally — the pregnancy rumors and the whole ‘Oh, she chose career over kids’ assumption, It’s like, ‘You have no clue what’s going with me personally, medically, why I can’t … can I have kids?’ They don’t know anything.”

Jennifer Aniston — Jennifer’s Reason For Not Having A Child

Recently, the ‘Friends’ alum explained in an interview with Allure that why it was difficult for her o conceive.

“I would say my late 30s, 40s, I’d gone through really hard shit, and if it wasn’t for going through that, I would’ve never become who I was meant to be,” said Jennifer before explaining that she meant “trying to get pregnant.”

“It was a challenging road for me, the baby-making road. All the years and years and years of speculation… It was really hard,” Jen said. “I was going through IVF, drinking Chinese teas, you name it. I was throwing everything at it.”

The actress added, “I would’ve given anything if someone had said to me, ‘Freeze your eggs. Do yourself a favor.’ You just don’t think it. So here I am today. The ship has sailed.”

Jennifer didn’t reveal her struggles with trying to conceive for the sake of pity, she has actually made peace with her condition. “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.”

Jennifer also addressed the speculation of choosing her career over being a mom. She said the “narrative that I was just selfish and I just cared about my career. And God forbid a woman is successful and doesn’t have a child. And the reason my husband left me, why we broke up and ended our marriage, was because I wouldn’t give him a kid,” she recalled. “It was absolute lies. I don’t have anything to hide at this point.”

After Jennifer had bared her heart to the world, social media users came out to express their understanding of what Jennifer is going through. Someone wrote on Twitter, “I don’t care if you hate Jennifer Aniston or not but the media needs to stop asking women when they’re going to get pregnant or speculating on whether a woman has gotten pregnant or not. It’s disgusting, invasive and cruel.”
