Seth Rogen Talks About Not Having Kids
Seth Rogen tied the knot with actress, writer, and comedian Lauren Miller in 2011. The two have been living happily and have decided not to have kids. This had an impact on his career.
The 40-year-old actor appeared on the “Diary of a CEO” podcast, revealing that having no kids helped him succeed. “That has helped me succeed as well, definitely,” he said.
He added: “There’s a whole huge thing I’m not doing, which is raising children.” “Some people want kids, some people don’t want kids,” the ‘Superbad‘ actor explained.
“Honestly, you just are told, ‘You go through life, you get married, you have kids.’ That’s what happens. And me and my wife, neither of us were like that.” Rogen said that the older he and his wife and getting, the happier they are about their decision.
