“The older we get, the more happy and reaffirmed we are with our choice to not have kids,” the 43-year-old stated in 2023. “Now, more than anything, the conversation is like, ‘Honestly, thank God we don’t have children.’”

“We are in the prime of our lives. We are smarter than we’ve ever been. We understand ourselves more than we ever have,” he went on. “We have the capacity to achieve a level of work and a level of communication and care for one another, and a lifestyle we can live with one another that we’ve never been able to live before, and we can just do that, and we don’t have to raise a child.”

When asked if he believed that he and Lauren could be “happier” with kids, Seth said, “I’ve been around obviously a lot of children, I’m not ignorant to what it’s like. … Everyone I know has kids. I’m 40, you know? I know. Some of my friends have had kids for decades. Some people want kids, some people don’t want kids.”

Many parents took offense to Seth’s comments, with some even suggesting that his and Lauren’s lives have “no meaning” simply because they are child-free. Seth acknowledged the wild response to his comments last year, telling Esquire, “People really had strong takes on it, being like, ‘Fuck this fucking guy. Who the fuck does he think he is not to have kids?’ Well, if you hate me that much, why do you want more of me?”

He also called out people who have children purely for “selfish” reasons as he recalled being asked, “Who’s going to take care of you when you’re old?” “Is that why you’re having kids? Because I have two things to say: One, that’s very selfish to create a human so someone can take care of you. And two, just because you have a kid, I hate to break it to you, that doesn’t mean they’re going to do that,” he said.

When host Kelly, who shares two children with her late ex-husband Brandon Blackstock, questioned “why” Seth doesn’t want children, the actor simply replied, “It doesn’t seem that fun.”

Kelly said, “I can see how it seems that way,” while Seth doubled down and said, “Most of my friends who are parents, God bless them, spend a lot of their time talking about how much they don’t like having kids. And what me and my wife spend a lot of time talking about is how much fun stuff we can do because we don’t have kids!”

Kelly, who was also stepmom to Brandon’s two kids from a previous marriage, told Seth, “I think that that’s actually pretty rad though, because I never wanted kids before I met my ex. He had kids, and I was like, ‘This is kinda cool.’”

“I got to kind of experience it, so then I ended up having kids,” she said. “I wouldn’t say it’s, like, the most fun job, because it’s overwhelming.”

Kelly then added, “But it’s a beautiful thing, and it’s, like, nothing cooler for me.” In response to this, Seth awkwardly stayed silent, raising his eyebrows and shrugging.

Kelly then quickly said, “But, I will say, though, I think it’s important because people always used to pressure me about it. About marriage and about having kids, and like, that’s not everybody’s dream.”

Seth agreed and said, “A lot of people have kids and they don’t even think about it…They just think that’s the next thing you do in life.” Seth went on, “People describe having kids as brief glimmering moments of beauty amongst a sea of pain. Whereas not having kids, it’s just lovely all the time.”

“I’m never like, ‘I wish I had kids and I’m missing something by not having them.’ I’m doing stuff all the time where I look over at my wife and she looks at me and we’re like, ‘If we had kids, we couldn’t do this! This wouldn’t even remotely be on the table!’” he said.

Kelly then said, “People with kids, that’s what we call ‘me time.’ You have to carve it out.” Seth replied, “All the time is me. Why wouldn’t it be me time?!”

Kelly concluded by telling Seth, “I think that’s really awesome. And I think it’s so cool to not pressure people.” She also clarified, “I do love my children.” Seth’s resurfaced comments really resonated with a ton of Reddit users, one of whom wrote, “I love the way he put it and I agree. Some people might call me selfish but I get overstimulated crazy easily. And when I’m overstimulated I’m mean. Why shouldn’t every moment be ‘me time’ if that’s the case? In addition to the many other reasons why having kids isn’t in the cards for me. Good for Seth and his wife for living life on their terms!”

Someone else said, “We’ve got a lot of humans in this world. Not bringing kids should also be celebrated. Especially if it’s not what you want. Intentional parenting is cool! Intentional non-parenting is also cool!” “fuck yeah! we need more positive, non baby hating perspective on how not having kids is a viable and genuinely great outcome for some. too many people have kids because they feel the pressure or don’t want to miss out and it was a complete mistake, and that is far far more harmful than just abstaining even if you just aren’t sure,” one more comment read.

To get you up to speed: After news broke that Barry and Sabrina reportedly split in late 2024 after a year of dating, the internet was flooded with rumors that he had been unfaithful to the “Espresso” singer with influencer Breckie Hill. For her part, Breckie quickly shut down the cheating speculation on her own platforms.

Despite the denial, the wave of online negativity aimed at the Saltburn star was so intense that he eventually felt forced to delete his Instagram account and release a statement regarding the “hate” he was enduring during that period.

While appearing on a recent episode of the Friends Keep Secrets podcast, Barry addressed those persistent cheating rumors directly. He shared a candid look at how the public narrative has fundamentally altered his life—and his perspective was truly heartbreaking.

“I came off Instagram and social profiles,” he confessed during the interview. “I’ve stopped going to events. I’ve stopped, you know, just, socializing. It’s because, you know, there was a narrative out there that was never really sort of even spoken on, a narrative that’s not true, and I never confirmed or said anything about it. And, you know, I just disappeared.”

Reflecting on the unique struggles of “having a relationship in the public eye,” Barry pointed toward the video where Breckie denied the rumors. “No one seemed to latch on to that video,” he noted, expressing frustration over how the public perception has shifted since the breakup.

“I’m not asking for people to become my fan and like me because that’s not normal either,” he continued. “But I’m asking for people to stop assuming and also stop jumping on this narrative and attacking me and dragging me down in any way you can, involving my parents who are no longer with me… just absolutely disgusting and vile. There’s videos on TikTok literally going, ‘I hate him.'”

“We’ll get in the biggest fucking fight you’ve ever heard of in your life…and five minutes later, we’re back, laughing and making music,” she explained. “It’s sibling shit. There’s nothing else in the world like sibling relationships.” It is a sentiment many with siblings can certainly relate to.

If you’re a millennial of a certain age, you know Shannon Elizabeth from a few things. Between the American Pie franchise, Tomcats, Scary Movie, and even a Jay and Silent Bob movie or two, she was arguably one of the queens of the “movies you watched at a sleepover party” subcategory.

Shannon’s acting career has remained fairly steady since then, but she recently took on a new role entirely: OnlyFans creator. She joined the service just a few weeks ago, telling People at the time that starting her own OnlyFans was because “I’ve spent my entire career working in Hollywood, where other people controlled the narrative and the outcome of my career. This new chapter is about changing that, showing off a more sexy side no one has seen, and being closer to my fans.”
