Jenny Mollen Sparked Backlash in June
Jenny Mollen and Jason Biggs tied the knot in April 2008.
Mollen made headlines in May after publishing a divisive Substack essay about being a mother to boys, calling it a "mindf---."
"Call me old-fashioned, but I only want my sons to marry women with dead mothers. It’s my only shot at staying relevant, of seeming useful, and of winning by comparison," she wrote. "It builds you up, only to tear you apart."
The actress shares two sons, Sid, 12, and Lazlo, 8, with her estranged husband, Jason Biggs. The pair announced their split in May 2025 after 18 years of marriage.

Jenny Mollen's Reaction to Her Son Texting a Girl Raised Eyebrows
Jenny Mollen is a mother of two boys.
In the essay, Mollen shared her reaction to learning that her eldest son was texting a girl.
"[She] was twelve, but I could already tell my brand of toxic. She was bossing him around and using big words, and he was utterly spun," she continued. "I complained to Jason that I wanted to intervene before he got hurt and that she wasn’t even hotter than me."
Mollen's essay sparked immediate backlash. The Angels star continued to fuel the fire by later sharing a photo of herself hugging her son while in bed alongside the caption, "Your eldest son will be the most toxic guy you ever date."
Jenny Mollen Responded to the Backlash
Jenny Mollen and Jason Biggs announced their split in May 2018 after 18 years of marriage.
Shortly after, Mollen addressed the criticism in another essay titled "THE LOVE THAT BREAKS US."
"Last week, the internet called me a child molester for posting a photo of myself holding my son," she wrote on June 8. "The picture was taken on a Monday night after he returned from a weekend away. There’s something devastating about realizing your children can survive without you, that they can be content somewhere else. Happy, even. And that the security you once felt in being their entire world was never meant to last."
