I've read those quotes and always felt like she seemed genuine, and was trying to explain her own choices while also trying not to sound too harsh or un-womanly (which is often a real fear for childless by choice women).
If he has kids some day, then he does. That doesn't mean she was foolish or wanted them in the end just because she possesses a vagina. And if she does now or in the future, I feel like an early 40s successful famous woman is a pretty good person to be if you are an older mom!

"Neither of us have the greatest examples of marriages in our families," he explained. "But Jen is the love of my life, and we've already been together four times longer than my parents were married."
d wake up with absolute clarity, and I haven't. And we have a pretty great life together. The chance that we'll regret it doesn't seem like a compelling enough reason to do it. I may wake up tomorrow with that lighting bolt, and I'll have to scramble to make it happen.''I've thought about this a lot lately.
