Jennifer Aniston made a public appearance to support her boyfriend, hypnotherapist Jim Curtis, at his sold-out book event in California over the weekend. The outing marks another step in the couple's increasingly public, yet low-key, romance.
A Cozy Weekend Support
The 56-year-old Friends actress enjoyed a casual outing with Curtis, her boyfriend of nearly six months, at Godmother's bookstore in Summerland, California on Saturday. Aniston dressed for comfort in a cosy knit sweater, jeans, and glasses for the event, titled 'A Deep Reset for the New Year with Jim Curtis'.
This public show of support comes shortly after both partners reflected on their relationship in social media posts marking the new year. Curtis shared a cryptic but sweet nod to their romance in his first post of 2026, writing about the "amazing things" that happened and hinting at "a few surprises cooking."
Romance in the Spotlight
The couple were first romantically linked in July 2025, spotted on a getaway to Spain. Aniston made their relationship Instagram official in November with a black-and-white birthday tribute for Curtis's 50th, calling him "my love."
In a subsequent interview with Elle, Aniston gushed about her beau, describing him as "very special, very normal and very kind" and noting he helps "many, many people" through his work.
This relationship is notably Aniston's first public romance in seven years, following her divorce from Justin Theroux in 2018. Her first marriage was to Brad Pitt, which ended in 2005.
Inner Circle Approval
Despite the relationship being less than a year old, insiders suggest Aniston's inner circle are convinced she has found 'the one'. Sources told Us Weekly in late December that Curtis has brought her "so much happiness and security" that she feels comfortable sharing their bond publicly.
"It takes a special person for her to be open again after her public divorces," one source revealed. Another insider added that Aniston is "no longer worried about 'jinxing' her happiness" by going public and that she "finally feels secure enough to share without any fear."
The couple recently celebrated their first Christmas together, and sources confirm their romance has only grown more serious. As one insider summarised: "Jen's saying this is her person. She wouldn't do that unless she was sure. She's tired of hiding her joy."
