Allison Janney Opens Up About Never Getting Married Or Having Kids

Allison Janney opened up about how she really felt about never getting married or having children during an April 6, 2021 episode of The Drew Barrymore Show — and it turns out she’s doing just fine on her own. Janney confirmed that she never made a particularly conscious decision not to settle down or have children. And she may have started a family if she had found the right person, but revealed she’s having a lot of fun dating in her 60s.

“I think if I’d found the right guy at the right time and wanted to have kids, I probably would have with the right partner because I wasn’t ever really confident that I wanted to have kids, and I would rather regret not having kids than have kids and regret it,” the Mom star explained. Janney added that she’s “at this time in my life getting to know who I am and what I want. So I’d love to find someone to share my life with eventually, but if it doesn’t happen, I think I’ll be just fine.” But that doesn’t mean the star isn’t having fun looking. The actor shared that she has a profile on at least one dating app that she’s been on “for a little while.”

Whether or not Janney ever does share her life with someone else, it’s pretty obvious that she’s one strong woman who’s already found the secret to self-love and happiness.
