After more than a decade of pregnancy rumours, Jennifer Aniston has finally given birth to a healthy 10-year-old boy, believed to have been conceived in the mid-2000s.

The birth means that the world’s gaze must now be averted from the star’s baby bump, and sources close to the actress have confirmed they no longer need to continue their decade-long campaign of revealing Aniston’s pregnancy secrets.

The birth also means that Aniston, 47, can rest easy now that her status as a woman has finally been validated. Legions of “Fanistons” can also breathe a collective sigh of relief knowing that the Friends star has at last born the fruit of her womb.

Following the news, thousands of paparazzi who have built their careers around the long-gestating fetus, retired.
