During the interview that she gave to Allure magazine, the actress explained how she has lived through some of her hardest moments, among which her multiple attempts to get pregnant or how her divorce affected her personality. her parents.
Jennifer revealed that she deeply hates social networks and that she does not know how to use them, noting that she feels very happy to have lived her experience in adolescence and youth without having to deal with internet platforms and all the pressure they impose.
“I feel better about who I am today, better than when I was in my 20s or 30s, or in my mid-40s. We need to stop saying mean things to ourselves. Someday I’ll be 65 and I’ll say I looked great at 53,” Aniston commented thoughtfully.
Later, the artist opened one of the topics that she had best kept: why has she not had children?… Pointing out that those years were very hard. “She was trying to get pregnant. It was a challenging path for me, the path of making babies.”
Without reservation, Jennifer said that she experimented with many techniques, but nothing worked. “It was really difficult. She was trying IVF, drinking Chinese teas, whatever. He did everything. I would have given anything if someone had told me: ‘Freeze your eggs. Do yourself a favor,’ you just don’t think about it,” she explained.
However, over the years she admitted that it was impossible to get pregnant and adding that she does not regret anything, Aniston stated: “So here I am today. The ship has sailed.”
Because in those years there was a lot of speculation about the reasons that had led the actress to not want to have children, without really knowing what was happening, Brad Pitt’s ex was ironic, remembering these moments, highlighting that “the narrative that It was just selfish.”
Together, the interpreter denied the rumor that Brad Pitt left her for not having children. “And the reason my husband left me, why we broke up and ended our marriage, was because he wouldn’t give her a child. They were outright lies,” she stressed.
“The dehumanization and scrutiny we subject women to is absurd and disturbing. The way I am portrayed by the media is simply a reflection of how we see and portray women in general, compared to a distorted standard of beauty,” she added.
When talking about another of the painful moments in her existence, Aniston said that the bad relationship that her parents had and her subsequent divorce were important, highlighting the problem that it was to see her mother cry and not be able to help her.
“In that generation it wasn’t like, ‘Go to therapy, talk to someone. You go through life and pick up your son with tears on your face and you have no help. It’s toxic to have that resentment, that anger. I learned a lot from my mother. I remember saying: ‘Thank you for showing me what I will never be,'” the artist said about it.
