Aniston, known for her role in The Morning Show, expressed disbelief that such views could come from a figure considered for a vice-presidential role. “I truly can’t believe this is coming from a potential VP of The United States,” Aniston wrote. She added, “Mr. Vance, I pray that your daughter is fortunate enough to bear children of her own one day.”
The actress, who has openly shared her struggles with IVF in the past, continued to address Vance directly. “I hope she will not need to turn to IVF as a second option. Because you are trying to take that away from her, too.”
In her post, Aniston shared a screenshot of Vance’s 2021 interview, where he described the U.S. political landscape as being dominated by “childless cat ladies” who he claimed were trying to make the country as miserable as they were. Vance specifically mentioned figures like Harris and other prominent Democrats, suggesting that their lack of children undermined their stake in the country's future.
Vice President Harris, who is a stepmother to her husband Doug Emhoff’s two children, was one of the individuals targeted by Vance's remarks. In contrast, Vance and his wife, Usha, have three children together.
Aniston’s response follows the recent news of Vance being selected as Donald Trump’s vice-presidential pick at the Republican National Convention, ahead of the 2024 election.
The actress has been vocal about her own experiences with false pregnancy rumors and has addressed these issues in previous statements. In a 2022 interview with Allure, Aniston discussed the challenges of dealing with speculations about her personal life and her struggles with IVF. She has also written about the societal pressures surrounding women’s choices, advocating for the freedom to define one’s own happiness and life path.
Aniston's remarks highlight the ongoing debate about personal choices and public perceptions, particularly in the realm of politics and media.
