Ever since Jennifer Aniston’s personal life was thrust into the spotlight when she started dating Brad Pitt there has been a public obsession with her plans to start a family. Aniston has been plagued with constant media reports throughout her career about her being pregnant/planning to get pregnant/upset about not being pregnant, and unsurprisingly she has had enough.

In a new interview with US Glamour, Aniston addressed the issue of the ongoing media scrutiny head on.

‘My ideas of what a happy life and fulfilled life are might be different from other people’s. I think it’s to each their own. It’s nobody’s right to judge someone else’s choices,’ Aniston told the publication.

‘No one knows what’s going on beyond the four walls of your home, of these people who are having or not having children It’s a very sensitive area to go to, especially. It’s sensitive to me,’ the actress admitted.

As Aniston has found time and time again, she can’t even enjoy a big lunch without media reports jumping to the conclusion she is ‘finally pregnant’.

‘If your body is in a normal moment of having had a bite or two, or you’re having a moment of bloat, then there’s arrows circled around your stomach, telling you that you’re pregnant,’ she said.

‘Having a child, as we know, is no one’s business except the couple or individual that’s going through it,’ Aniston concluded. We couldn’t agree more.

This isn’t the first time the ex Friends star has spoken out about the media’s fixation with her body and potential baby plans. After photos of Aniston last year in a bikini sparked reports she could be pregnant, the actress penned a heartfelt open letter in The Huffington Post titled ‘For The Record’ calling for the preoccupation to stop.

‘For the record, I am not pregnant. What I am is fed up. I’m fed up with the sport-like scrutiny and body shaming that occurs daily under the guise of “journalism,” the “First Amendment” and “celebrity news.”’ she wrote.
