John Cena has openly discussed his decision not to have children, revealing that he feels he is not personally ready to invest the necessary time and energy into parenthood. During his appearance on the 'Club Shay Shay' podcast, he shared that he and his wife, Shay Shariatzadeh, addressed the topic early in their relationship, which has allowed them to build a strong foundation based on shared values. Cena emphasized that his choice stems from his desire to live life to the fullest, stating, 'I still have a lot to do.' He acknowledged the societal pressure to reproduce but remains firm in his belief that he lacks the passion for fatherhood. Cena's approach to uncomfortable conversations has fostered transparency in their relationship, allowing for open discussions about family life. Ultimately, he believes that everyone should live their lives in a way that best suits them, and for him, that does not include children.
