Jennifer Aniston’s Real Struggle Behind The Rumors
For the first time ever, Jennifer Aniston is opening up about her struggles with infertility. This very personal story came out during an interview with Allure about her new cosmetics line, LolaVie. In the interview, Aniston talked about the very painful pregnancy rumors years ago that have since haunted her.
During her marriage to actor, Brad Pitt, Jennifer Aniston had very cruel comments hurled at her and behind her back. People said she was selfish for not having kids with Pitt. Others accused her of choosing her career over family. And people even speculated that the reason Pitt left her and the marriage was that Aniston wouldn’t give him a child. Those rumors grew even bigger when Pitt later had children with Angelina Jolie.
Jennifer Aniston has a very different story to tell, though. People.com reported that Aniston said she actually went through a difficult journey to get pregnant. “All the years and years and years of speculation… It was really hard,’ she noted. ‘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.”
In the same interview, Aniston, now 53, says that she doesn’t have any regrets about how her life turned out. She said she did everything she could to have a child and it just wasn’t in the cards for her. But she’s confident knowing it wasn’t because she didn’t try. Aniston went on to say that nobody needs a mate or a child to be complete. And that she feels more comfortable now with who she is than she did in her 20’s, 30’s or even 40’s.
It does go to show, though, that you truly never know what someone is going through behind the judgement thrown at them. A good reminder to be kind, always.

Matthew Perry Talks Addiction, Almost Dying, And More In New Book
“FRIENDS” is one of my favorite shows. I can’t turn it off if I run across it, or it’s just my default if nothing else is on.
was probably one of the most popular sitcoms of all time. Ross, Monica, Rachel, Chandler, Joey, and Phoebe were OUR friends. Matthew Perry says those friends were definitely there for him when he needed them.
Matthew Perry was very candid about his drug use, and how it almost killed him, in his upcoming book “Friends, Lovers and the Big Terrible Thing”.
In a new interview with “People” Perry says he almost DIED when his colon burst due to opioid abuse four years ago. He spent two weeks in a coma, five months in the hospital, and nine months with a colostomy bag.
He says, quote, “The doctors told my family that I had a 2 percent chance to live. I was put on a thing called an ECMO machine, which does all the breathing for your heart and your lungs. And that’s called a Hail Mary. No one survives that.”
At one point during his “Friends” days, Matthew was taking 55 Vicodin a day, and was down to 128 pounds. He says Season 9 of “Friends” was the only year he was sober all the way through.
But he credits his cast members for sticking with him – like penguins. He said, quote, “Penguins, in nature, when one is sick, or when one is very injured, the other penguins surround it and prop it up. They walk around it until that penguin can walk on its own. That’s kind of what the cast did for me.”
Perry has been to rehab 15 times over the years, and while he won’t reveal how long he’s been sober currently, he says he’s, quote, “a pretty healthy guy right now.” And that’s why he finally wrote his book.
Quote, “I wanted to share when I was safe from going into the dark side of everything again. “I had to wait until I was pretty safely sober . . . and away from the active disease of alcoholism and addiction . . . to write it all down. And the main thing was, I was pretty certain that it would help people.”
“Friends, Lovers and the Big Terrible Thing” will be released November 1st.
