We were surprised this week by Jennifer Aniston soft-launching her new boyfriend. There were several surprises, actually – Aniston was on vacation, but not in Cabo! She’s in Mallorca with her bestie, Jason Bateman and Jason’s wife Amanda. Aniston’s newish boyfriend Jim Curtis joined them, and some outlets got photos of them together. So now everyone is doing deep dives of when Aniston met this wellness/life-coach/hypnotist guy. It feels very likely that Aniston has been lowkey dating Curtis for at least three months, probably longer. Now Us Weekly says that they’re really happening:
Jennifer Aniston is off the market! The Friends alum, 56, is dating hypnotist Jim Curtis, multiple sources exclusively tell Us Weekly.
“They are being super private but have been spending a lot of time together,” one source says. “They are happy and really into each other.”
The source tells Us that “mutual friends” set up Aniston and Curtis, 49, who “started off as friends but really hit it off” over time.
“They’ve been hanging out a lot, but very much on the DL at her home in L.A.,” the source shares. “It’s very Zen, and she has always been very much into that. They’re a good match.”
Us Weekly has reached out to Aniston’s rep and Curtis for comment. The new couple were photographed together for the first time over 4th of July weekend while vacationing in Mallorca, Spain, with the Morning Show star’s longtime friend Jason Bateman and his wife, Amanda Anka.
While Aniston and Curtis have otherwise managed to keep their get-togethers out of the spotlight, they have been publicly supporting each other on social media for some time. The actress has “liked” most of the New York City-based life coach’s Instagram posts over the past few months, including a July 2 video about recovering from “a divorce, breakup or difficult romance,” and he did the same on her May 25 photo dump featuring a copy of his 2024 book, Shift: Quantum Manifestation Guide.
As I said previously, this is the first time Aniston has had an on-the-record boyfriend since her situation with Justin Theroux ended in 2018. There have been rumors about Aniston dating everyone from a personal trainer to Barack Obama, but I never believed any of those rumors. But I believe this – I think it’s really happening, and I think Jim Curtis sounds like her type. I wonder if dating a guy like this feels like dating a therapist? I could never date a hypnotist either – god, can you imagine? What happens if you’re dating a hypnotist and suddenly you’re missing time or you don’t know how you got to a certain location? It’s a true crime story just waiting to happen. It’s like an episode of Law & Order: SVU.

Jen is known for having a bad picker. Brad turned out to be abuser and Theroux has been chasing teen girls for years. I wish her happiness but can’t help but wonder if this hypnotist guy has skeletons in his closet.
I, too, did a deep dive into (not that deep – just a couple of his TikTok vids) and he’s HOT! I would be annoyed by his relentless positivity, though, and any attempts to change my bad habits. I like my bad habits!
He is HOT. Good for her. The tabloids will find any skeletons, so let her have some hot summer fun. She didn’t even legally marry Justin. She learned to be cautious after the 15 plus year smear campaign by Brad.
One thing that people forget (or did not realize at the time): Losing your husband to one of the hottest women on the planet was (for me at least) global humiliation – the news was “viral” for the time period – we were entering the ‘viral’ era.
Additionally, Brad rubbed Jennifer’s nose in it (that tacky magazine spread where he and AJ played house? not blaming AJ here – HE should have had the good sense/grace to pass or suggest changes on the styling of that article) – per Jennifer she stated he was “missing a sensitivity chip.” If she’s having fun with a hot man, so be it.
Aniston was well rid of brad and so was Angelina. No prize is he.
Wow he is really, really good-looking. His whole woo-woo thing is a bunch of nonsense, but someone who hangs around her pool and goes on vacations with her seems like exactly what she’s looking for.
They both seem so boring, my god.
“Vapid” comes to mind.
These tabloids write things like this about everyone (Zen, DL, Very Much Into It, Happy). They write the exact same thing about Jen’s ex-husband (Brad) and his new girlfriend. I’m not a fan of her, but I hope the guy is contributing to the bills.
Wow, he’s reallly handsome! Hope he’s nice!
I know that people age up but she looks like a different person. She doesnt look great. What the hell she did with her face?
Anyway, her boyfriend looks good. I always thought that Jennifer would be happier with someone outside the industry, If a stable relationship is what she wants ofc.
I think her face is just showing its age, which is fine. Clearly she has had work done, but nothing that can reverse how getting older can impact the overall shape of your face. She has always had a strong jaw and with time those can look more pronounced.
To me, the issue is the disparity between her face and her body. Her body is as thin and muscular as ever and it doesn’t go with her face, which no longer looks as youthful as it did. Her face is fuller and her body isn’t.
I hope they’re having fun and that he doesn’t turn out to be a creepy jerk.
(Though the hypnotist/master manifester stuff makes me wonder but she might be into that)
He seems to be going for a Bradley Cooper-ish vibe. For me the reaction to him is it’s a bit like the to actors they tend to use in the Trivago hotel app commercials – superficially they are stereotypically over-40’s white guy handsome, but they kick up my something’s off Spidey Senses.
Maybe it’s the perfect teeth or the precise stubble?
I’m a hypnotist and have practiced it theraputically for 13 years. There’s nothing woo-woo about it at all, in fact I’ve helped people get over debilitating anxiety and panic attacks, insomnia, fear of flying, fear of water, getting over a bad relationship, rape, all sorts of stuff.
“What happens if you’re dating a hypnotist and suddenly you’re missing time or you don’t know how you got to a certain location? It’s a true crime story just waiting to happen.” ????? What happens is you cannot hypnotize someone who doesn’t want to be hypnotized. You don’t just wake up in some new location unless you’ve been drugged.
That’s interesting. I once was having a lot of trouble getting over an experience that was upsetting for me. I couldn’t stop thinking about it, my therapist’s tools were not helping and my husband was understanding but not equipped to handle the issue. So I went to a hypnotist just to see if it might help. He was very professional and after an hour long discussion, told me he didn’t think his method would work in my situation so we shouldn’t go further. He gave me a few suggestions, including just giving it a little more time.
I can absolutely see how hypnotism might work.
Luckily I finally moved on and stopped thinking about it. So he was right.
I had hypnosis after an attempted rape and then 3 months later cancer, and was petrified of everything, and of vomiting with chemo (my best friend had it 3 months earlier, and told me how hellishly awful it was) so I went from utter fear, to hypnosis, to being able to leave the house and marching in to the chemo room and being sooooo happy to get it, smiling through the whole thing, and managing each of the 8 times I went for it. To be a hypnotist is an utter gift, and brings people their life back. Thank you xx
Jen sure likes her pretty boys.
Curtis sorta resembles Bradley Cooper. (Who I think Aniston was linked to years back).
Jen falling for a wellness grifter absolutely tracks.
Thank you, Jaded. I have had some serious past trauma and a hypnotist helped me exponentially. It indeed is a gift!
Master Manifester? LOL. 😂😂😂
I think this guy seems like a better pick overall than that horrible right-wing actor Vince Vaughn or her pretentious ex-“husband” Theroux. I hope she finds some romantic happiness.
For me, he gives off shaman Durek vibes. Perhaps that’s what she needs right now. Sorry, not sorry.
