She told the publication at the time,

My life’s great! But it’s just this weird thing that’s been hammered into my head culturally: that’s the only way to succeed, that’s the only thing that counts for a woman.

I’m happy, but the fact that I’m not married and don’t have kids — it’s taken me a long time to get to a place where I actually am OK with that, where I actually don’t feel like I’m some sort of loser.

 Back in 2011, the actress had also opened up to E! News about her outlook on marriage.

When asked when she would ever marry, she said with a laugh at the time, "Maybe never?"

She continued,

Marriage doesn't really buy you anything. I mean, Chris Messina, who is my co-star in this movie, is with my very close friend [producer Jennifer Todd]. They're not married, but they have two kids and they're wildly happy.

Well, congratulations Rashida and Ezra for your new bundle of joy!
