2 Celebrities Who Are Unable to Have Children

For those who want to be parents, things don’t always work out as you planned. Although getting pregnant is straightforward for some, many women go through fertility struggles, and no one understands that better than these celebrities who have opened up about their battles.

Whether they’ve decided to adopt children, go through a surrogate, or not have kids at all, here are some high-profile stars who realized that they couldn’t have children and courageously shared their stories.

1. Selena Gomez

Singer and actor Selena Gomez recently spoke out about not being able to have children due to her medical conditions, which make having a safe pregnancy difficult. She said to Vanity Fair, “I haven’t ever said this, but I unfortunately can’t carry my own children.” If she did, it would put both her and her potential child’s lives at risk.

2. Jennifer Aniston

The media and the public both pressured Jennifer Aniston on whether she would have children, and she finally got sick of the interrogation, opening up about her infertility. Aniston said that she spent much of her 30s and 40s attempting to have a baby, telling Allure that the “baby-making road” was a “challenging” one filled with IVF, Chinese teas, and more.
