Casey Anthony wants to have children again, says her 'biological clock is ticking'

ORLANDO, Fla. (WSET) -- Casey Anthony is reportedly thinking about having kids again, years after being acquitted of killing her 2-year-old daughter in 2011.

According to People Magazine, a source close to Anthony told the magazine that"she feels like her biological clock is ticking," and "she knows she's getting older. She's not the young girl who everyone saw on trial. She's in her 30s, wondering what to do next, and hoping that she can find some meaning in her life."

The magazine says in a 2017 interview with the Associated Press, Anthony believed she was unlikely to have more children in the future.

"If I am blessed enough to have another child -- if I'd be dumb enough to bring another kid into this world knowing that there'd be a potential that some little snot-nosed kid would then say something mean to my kid -- I don't think I could live with that," she said in the interview.

However, now, Anthony is considering what her future could be like with kids.

“Marriage, family, the white picket fence,” the source told People Magazine. “In some ways, that’s very appealing to Casey. She’d want things to be less dysfunctional than the family she had growing up, but she likes the idea of stability.”

Anthony was acquitted of murder and manslaughter charges on July 5, 2011, but convicted of four counts of lying to police.
