Does Jennifer Aniston Have Any Kids?
Jennifer Aniston doesn't have any kids, and quite frankly, she's tired of everyone asking. In a Dec. 2018 profile in Elle, the Friends star said the prospect of having children always felt "kind of frightening."
"Some people are just built to be wives and have babies. I don't know how naturally that comes to me," she continued. "Who knows what the future holds in terms of a child and a partnership — how that child comes in...or doesn't? And now with science and miracles, we can do things at different times than we used to be able to."
Whether it be her former relationship with Brad Pitt, possible feud with Angelina Jolie, or her split from actor Justin Theroux, Jennifer Aniston has been a tabloid fixture for the majority of her career. This fixation on her personal life caused her to pen a 2016 op-ed in HuffPo titled "For The Record."
SPOILER: she was not happy.
"For the record, I am not pregnant. What I am is fed up. I'm fed up with the sport-like scrutiny and body shaming that occurs daily under the guise of 'journalism,' the 'First Amendment' and 'celebrity news,'" she wrote.
Describing the scrutiny that she and other women endure "absurd and disturbing," Jennifer Aniston blasted the media, saying she was "tired of being part of this narrative." And as far as motherhood goes? She'll get to it when she gets to it.
"Yes, I may become a mother someday, and since I'm laying it all out there, if I ever do, I will be the first to let you know," she continued. "But I'm not in pursuit of motherhood because I feel incomplete in some way, as our celebrity news culture would lead us all to believe."
On her decision to write the op-ed, Aniston told Marie Claire, "I just thought: I have worked too hard in this life and this career to be whittled down to a sad, childless human."
So, no. Jennifer Aniston doesn't have any kids. Hope this clears that up.
