Jennifer Aniston revealed the "selfish" reason she chose not to adopt a child.

The 56-year-old opened up about coming to terms with not having children during an upcoming appearance on the " SmartLess " podcast with Dax Shepard. Co-host Monica Padman, who is going through her own in vitro fertilization (IVF) journey, asked Aniston if there was "peace" after a decision is made.

"It’s so peaceful," Aniston said. "But I will say there’s a point where it’s, like, this is out of my control. There’s literally nothing I can do about it.

"When people say, ‘But you can adopt,’ I don’t want to adopt," she added. "I want my own DNA in a little person. That’s the only way, selfish or not, whatever that is, I wanted it."
