She explained that very few people in her life knew about the situation, sharing: "I was trying to get pregnant. It was a challenging road for me, the baby-making road. I was going through IVF, drinking Chinese teas, you name it. I was throwing everything at it.
"I would've given anything if someone had said to me, 'Freeze your eggs. Do yourself a favor.' You just don't think it. So here I am today. The ship has sailed."

"That's why I have such gratitude for all those [expletive] things. Otherwise, I would've been stuck being this person that was so fearful, so nervous, so unsure of who they were," she added.
Jen also spoke of the narrative that was created in the media about her being supposedly "career-obsessed," adding: "And God forbid a woman is successful and doesn't have a child.
"And the reason my husband left me, why we broke up and ended our marriage, was because I wouldn't give him a kid. It was absolute lies. I don't have anything to hide at this point."
