According to the tabloids, there is a lot going on in Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux's lives these days, but the actor says that much of it is far from the truth.

Jennifer Aniston Feeling Pressure From Her Family To Get Pregnant?

The actor, who is engaged to Hollywood sweetheart Aniston, recently opened up about the gossip fodder that has been dominating the headlines ever since he proposed to his future wife two years ago. While many are speculating a wedding and a baby in his imminent future, Theroux admitted to Marie Claire this week that he knows nothing about it.

He told the magazine, "I don't pay much attention unless I catch a glimpse [of a tabloid headline] at the checkout. It's usually someone else telling me what's happening with my life. The man on the street clapping me on the shoulder, saying congrats, and I'm like, oh-kay, I have no idea what that's about."

He added, "[Fame] It's like having your own cartoon strip constantly running that you can't control."

Even though the couple aren't planning to become parents just yet, Theroux did admit that he oftentimes does think about fatherhood, especially since he plays a parent in HBO's The Leftovers.

He said, "The strange thing is that I've started to feel oddly parental towards my on-screen children. They've just moved to New York for the show and I've gotten a little protective, making sure they get home OK. I find myself checking in on them at the weekend - are you doing alright? Did you work that out? Wait, when are you moving? Who's moving you? I'm a real protective fake dad.' Good practice, I venture? 'Well, I'm great with teenagers but the in-between bit... at least I didn't have to deal with any diaper changing."

Theroux and Aniston have been engaged since August 2012.
