Jen Aniston hard-launches new man

The former Friends star has taken to Instagram to share a rare glimpse into her private life – namely hard-launching her new man, Jim Curtis.

The 56-year-old star took a moment to wish her new bearded beau a happy birthday with a sweet black-and-white snap of the pair embracing.

“Happy birthday my love. Cherished,” she captioned the loved-up shot with a love heart to end it. ️

To say it was lapped up by her fans is a serious understatement.

Jen’s A-list pals were the first amongst over 273,000 (and counting!) people to react to the rare post in the first hour.

“Beautiful couple. Healing kind angels,” comedian Amy Schumer commented.

“This is very cute,” echoed best pal and Tobey Maguire’s ex, Jennifer Meyer.

And the comments didn’t stop there, with fans unable to contain their excitement over their favourite star finally finding love again.

“OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG. FINALLY!!! We have been waiting for this moment for a long time!!” one fan screamed.

“When you find the right one,” wrote another in a tone written like a Friends episode.

And another celebrated: “Two inspirational, beautiful humans inside and out.”

 

Jim, 50, is a popular wellness coach, author and hypnotherapist, who has gained an impressive fanbase over his thoughts on healing and transformation.

In one of his most popular posts on social media, he talks about one of the biggest paradox’s of life – whether you should settle in a relationship that doesn’t feel quite right or be happy alone.

“I’m going to say neither. Harvard had a study on human relationships that 75 years they followed people and they showed that relationships are the most important things for happiness,” he says in the clip.

“Having people in your life that nurture you and help you grow as a person is super important. So you should not be alone. Nor should you settle.

“If you’re in a love relationship or in a relationship with someone that doesn’t fulfill you then you should go out there and cultivate more friends. Definitely don’t settle for that relationship.”

It is believed that Jennifer and Jim met through mutual friends and bonded over their interests in the area of self-help.

While they have been spotted in public multiple times – including at the recent premiere of the new series of The Morning Show, this is the first time Jennifer has officially introduced her fans to Jim.

It also marks the first time since splitting with ex-husband Justin Theroux that Jennifer has included a love interest on her social media.
