Friends star Jennifer Aniston opened up about a very very personal issue during her cover feature interview with Allure. Along with the up close and candid chat, she posed for a sprawling spread inside the magazine. Known for her amazing, in-shape physique, Aniston showed that even at 53, she’s still got it, and no one is disagreeing with her.
As Allure’s very last print issue, Jennifer Aniston thanks the publication for saving the best for last (well, not in so many words, we DEFINITELY are putting words into her mouth 😉 , but we think it’s true)!
But on the other side of it, she discussed ugly rumors about her personal life. People who had no idea about her internal struggles, especially with infertility, made those years of her life very trying. After the destruction of her 5-year marriage to Brad Pitt, she continued to struggle with trying to start a family. She opened up in the interview and People magazine reported on it.
Aniston told Allure, “I was 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.” She went on to say, “I was going through IVF, drinking Chinese teas, you name it. I was throwing everything at it. I would have given anything if someone had said to me, ‘Freeze your eggs. Do yourself a favor.’ You just don’t think it.”
During her divorce to Brad, people made assumptions that she chose her career over having children and she adamantly slams those opinions. She said it was very hurtful and absolutely not true. She wanted to have a family, she tried to have one, but now, at 53, she says she is at peace with it.
