If there’s anyone who knows about pregnancy rumors and speculation about her personal life, it’s Jennifer Aniston. 

And if it was up to her, everyone would just stop asking. When talking to Carson Daly, Aniston had a lot to say on the matter. Carson brought up a past interview with the Hollywood star, where she said: “Being a woman, your value and worth is associated with your marital status or whether or not you’ve procreated.” 

In another recent interview, Aniston added to her comments. 

“I don’t have this sort of check list of things that have to be done and if they’re not checked then I’ve failed some part of my feminism or my being as a woman, or my worth and my value as a woman because I haven’t birthed a child,” Aniston said. 

The 45-year-old added that she’s birthed a lot of things already, and has mothered many things. She also doesn’t think it’s fair to put that pressure on people. 

Aniston has a point as she seems perfectly happy with her career and her life the way it is.
