10 Famous People Who Decided To Live Without Children With Truthful Reasons

According to researchers, people who do not have children are just as happy as those who do. These days, there are more people who consciously choose not to have any kids. While some would prioritize their career over family life, others are simply incapable of parental instincts, or are not enthusiastic in having children.

   
⁠

Whatever their motivation, these individuals are demonstrating that breeding isn’t our sole duty as humans, and that we should all pursue our own unique paths as long as we feel happy to do it.

The stars who are candid about their personal choices without fear of being condemned are admired by Daily Highlight. Here are some of the reasons why some Hollywood celebrities have chosen against having children.

1. Keanu Reeves

When Keanu was 36, he was on the verge of becoming a father, but unfortunately, his then-girlfriend gave birth to a stillborn 8 months into her pregnancy. He was never a father, and it appears that he doesn’t plan to change that. “It’s too late. It’s over. I’m 52. I’m not going to have any kids,” said Keanu 5 years ago.

2. Helen Mirren

In 2007, the then 61-year-old Hollywood star was totally candid about her feelings of becoming a parent. Helen admitted, “I’m just not interested. I’ve no maternal instinct whatsoever. And I don’t think I’m so unusual.” She went on to claim, “I’m so happy I don’t have children. But I do love children, and I’ve got family.”

3. Jared Leto

The actor and singer admitted a couple of years ago that he didn’t feel he’s prepared for parenthood, knowing that it’s a huge burden when it comes to becoming a dad, and that he was incapable of completely committing to that then. Leto shared, “I think it’s really important to be present if you have children. I have a lot of…things to take care of.”

4. Sarah Paulson

In a 2018 interview, the Hollywood star was fully open about her choice to steer clear of parenthood. She said, “I don’t want to be torn.” She admitted that she was terrified of feeling remorse when she looked at her child. Sarah went on to claim that her option may prove “selfish” to certain people, yet she also believed that “the word selfish gets a bad rap.”

5. Winona Ryder

The Hollywood star recounted the response from her father when she inquired about her inability to have children at the age of 42, to which he replied, “There are other ways to have children in your life.”

6. Ricky Gervais

The 60-year-old writer and comedian said that he would be concerned a lot about the safety of his child should he have one. He then continued to claim that one of the numerous reasons he decided against being a father was because “the world is overpopulated.”

7. Oprah Winfrey

For 36 years, the famous 68-year-old talk show host has been in a relationship with her boyfriend. She does, however, say that she doesn’t regret having no kids. She admitted, “I wouldn’t have been a good mom for babies. I don’t have the patience. I have the patience for puppies, but that’s a quick stage!”

8. Ashley Judd

In her 2011 biography, the 54-year-old actress and activist said that she opted not to have children when she was 18 years old, and that her decision is “a big part” of who she is. She remarked, “I do not need to go making ‘my own’ babies when there are so many orphaned or abandoned children who need love, attention, time, and care.”

9. Dolly Parton

Despite the fact that she has never had children of her own, the country singer has always had a deep bond with them and is used to being around them. She elaborated, “I grew up in a big old family with 8 younger kids,” before continuing to say, “I often think, it just wasn’t meant for me to have kids, so everybody’s kids can be mine.”

When inquired if he hopes to have children in the future, the Hollywood star, who is also an environmental activist, replied, “Do you mean do I want to bring children into a world like this?” His choice, though, does not appear to be final. He went on to say, “If it happens, it happens.”
