Jennifer Aniston hits back at Bill O’Reilly

Jennifer Aniston has hit back at Bill O’Reilly’s claims she is “destructive to our society”, which followed her comments endorsing single women having a child without a partner (read the full story).

“Of course, the ideal scenario for parenting is obviously two parents of a mature age. Parenting is one of the hardest jobs on earth,” the 41-year-old actress told People magazine.

“And, of course, many women dream of finding Prince Charming (with fatherly instincts), but for those who’ve not yet found their Bill O’Reilly, I’m just glad science has provided a few other options.”

Jen was slammed by O’Reilly on his show, The O’Reilly Factor, after she said women “don’t have to settle with a man just to have that child”, while she was promoting her new movie, The Switch.

“She’s throwing a message out to 12-year-olds and 13-year-olds,” Bill said of Jen’s comments “that ‘Hey you don’t need a guy. You don’t need a dad.’ That is destructive to our society.”
