A few years ago, Trump’s running mate Vance called leading female Democratic politicians “childless cat women.” The video has now surfaced again – and is leading to fierce criticism.
Actress Jennifer Aniston, who became famous primarily through the series “Friends,” has criticized Republican vice presidential candidate JD Vance for his statements about childless women. In an interview with Fox News in 2021, Vance, now 39, described leading Democratic politicians – including Vice President Kamala Harris – as “childless cat women” who are unhappy with their lives. The statements are now resurfacing on social media and are causing a lot of criticism.
“I really can’t believe this is coming from a potential Vice President of the United States,” Aniston (55), who has been married twice and has no children, wrote on Instagram. “Mr. Vance, I pray that your daughter will one day have the good fortune to bring children of her own into the world. I hope she will not have to resort to artificial insemination as a second option, because you are trying to take that away from her too.”
In mid-July, the US Republicans officially named Senator Vance, who is married and has three children, as Donald Trump’s running mate for the US presidential election in November. In recent months, heated discussions have broken out among the Republicans about their position on artificial insemination. Aniston has spoken openly in the past about her own experiences with artificial insemination.
Vice President and Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris has been married to Doug Emhoff since 2014, who has a son and a daughter from a previous relationship. Daughter Ella Emhoff has now come forward via Instagram to support Harris: “How can you be ‘childless’ when you have such sweet children like Cole and me?” Emhoff wrote. “I love my three parents.” Emhoff also included a quote from her mother Kerstin Emhoff, who described Harris as a “loving, caring, fiercely protective and always present” co-parent.
