The 53-year-old Friends star finally shared her tumultuous journey of fertility and chasing the bus for motherhood. She shared that her late 30s and her 40s were "truly difficult", as she was mad to catch the tag of becoming a mother. IVF is a procedure that truly pulls a lot out of women in terms of hormones and daily routine. One can only imagine her agony while keeping it all a secret and showing up at work while reading nasty news about her.

In an interview with Allure, she said "All the years and years and years of speculation... It was really hard. I was going through IVF, drinking Chinese teas, you name it. I was throwing everything at it."

"I would've given anything if someone had said to me, Freeze your eggs. Do yourself a favor."

Narrative Of A Woman Who Wants Freedom


Aniston has been married twice. Her first marriage with Brad Pitt when dissolved led to multiple speculations by the media houses. Some blamed Brad for cheating while others said it was Jennifer's lack of interest in planning a family and making babies!

She said, "And the reason my husband left me, why we broke up and ended our marriage, was because I wouldn't give him a kid. It was absolute lies. I don't have anything to hide at this point."


In 2018, Aniston and Theroux split after two years of marriage. Her grief was well-guarded but much played by the media. 

" And also God forbid a woman is successful and doesn't have a child," she claimed. The publications and rumor mills were abuzz with her zero desire to have a baby as she wanted a career before the baby.


The star, that is appearing in the Apple television+ series The Early Morning Show further shared "I've spent so many years protecting my story about IVF. I'm so protective of these parts because I feel like there's so little that I get to keep to myself," she continued.

This one is for women who are trying hard but no less about these celebrities marching down for work while keeping their battles aside.
