00:00Jennifer Aniston opens up about life in her 50s and claps back at age-shaming critics

00:06who say women have an expiration date, schmucks.

00:10Jennifer Aniston's career has spanned over three decades, and her name on a movie poster

00:15still draws fans to theaters.

00:18Despite her success, there are still critics out there who think she's too old, but the

00:22actress is done hearing their negativity.

00:25In the UK's November issue of Harper's Bazaar, she clapped back at people that looked down

00:30at older women.

00:32Jennifer Aniston loves being in her 50s.

00:37The societal idea of an expiration date just doesn't exist anymore, it's an old ideology.

00:44She explained to the publication, we're here and we're more than half the population, and

00:49would any of you schmucks be here if it weren't for us anyway?

00:53But she wasn't done there.

00:55The wisdom older women have to contribute is quite extraordinary, and it's one of the

00:59areas where we've seen genuine progress in the film world, she added.

01:04Aniston also got candid about her personal life in the interview, shutting down the narrative

01:09that she didn't have children because she's a workaholic.

01:11They didn't know my story, or what I'd been going through over the past 20 years, to true

01:17and pursue a family.

01:19Because I don't go out there and tell them my medical woes, she said.

01:23That's not anybody's business, she continued.

01:27But there comes a point when you can't not hear it.

01:30The narrative about how I won't have a baby, won't have a family, because I'm selfish, a

01:35workaholic.

01:36Rather, Aniston was secretly struggling with infertility.

01:40It was a challenging road for me, the baby-making road, she said in a 2022 interview.

01:48My late 30s, 40s, I'd gone through really hard shh, and if it wasn't for going through

01:54that, I would have never become who I was meant to be.

01:57I was trying to get pregnant.

01:59All the years and years and years of speculation, it was really hard, she added.

02:05I was going through IVF, drinking Chinese teas, you name it, I was throwing everything at

02:12it.
