Jennifer Tilly Opens Up About Never Having Kids and Surprising Wealth Perceptions
Jennifer Tilly is keeping it real. On the latest episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills , the 66-year-old actress and poker pro got candid about why she never had kids, how she really feels about her financial status, and the actual cost of her rare Louis Vuitton boat purse. And let’s just say, her revelations left fans talking.
During a conversation with Garcelle Beauvais on RHOBH: After Show , Jennifer was asked if she ever wanted to be a mother. Her response? A firm “Never.” She admitted that her own childhood, which she described as not “very good,” played a big role in her decision. She explained that many people believe they can be better parents than their own, but she feared she might repeat the same mistakes. Rather than taking that risk, she decided to “break the chain.” However, she still enjoys family life in her own way, thanks to her nieces and nephews.

Beyond her personal choices, fans have also been fascinated by Jennifer’s finances, especially since she receives residuals from The Simpsons , which her late ex-husband, Sam Simon, helped create. While some assume she’s incredibly wealthy, Jennifer had a different perspective. “I don’t think of myself as rich,” she admitted, despite owning multiple properties. She acknowledged that even a small stake in The Simpsons is a big deal but found it amusing that people were so surprised.
She also addressed some misconceptions about her luxury spending. While it was previously reported that her Louis Vuitton boat purse cost $33,000, Jennifer set the record straight: she actually paid $22,000. “They must have had some intern look it up,” she joked, adding that the price might have been inflated on the resale market.
As for her lifestyle, Jennifer described it as far from extravagant. Despite owning four homes—including properties in Bel Air, Las Vegas, and Malibu—she and her longtime boyfriend, poker pro Phil Laak, live in a “very small cluttered house.” She laughed at the idea that she has a mansion and a chauffeur catering to her every need, saying, “I just live my life the way I always have.”
Of course, this is The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills , where wealth and luxury are part of the appeal. Jennifer acknowledged that part of the show’s draw is watching fabulously rich women who, despite having everything, still seem unhappy. “That is the key to Housewives,” she explained. “People watch and think, ‘Wow, if I had all that money, I’d be happy.’ But these women? They’re miserable.”
Jennifer’s honesty and humor are just a few of the reasons fans love her. Whether it’s her candid take on motherhood, her self-awareness about money, or her ability to poke fun at the absurdity of it all, she’s bringing something fresh to RHOBH . And with all the buzz she’s generating, it looks like Jennifer Tilly isn’t just playing a friend on the show—she’s stealing the spotlight.
