The story of how they came together adds to the charm of this new partnership. According to sources, the pair were set up a few months ago by a mutual friend.

Fans have flooded the comment section with messages of support and happiness for the actress. The overwhelming sentiment is one of joy that Aniston has found someone who makes her happy. Comments like “LOVE YOU TWO TOGETHER,” “They’re beautiful!”, and “Be happy, Jenn, you deserve it too much,” poured in, reflecting a public desire to see the star content in her personal life. Many expressed that after everything, she truly deserves this moment of happiness.
Insiders close to the couple have shared that Curtis has had a positive influence on Aniston, helping her to “slow down” from her typically fast-paced life. He is said to support her in a way that feels “new” and to appreciate everything she has built in her career. From a cozy dinner in Big Sur to a getaway in Spain and now a public appearance on her Instagram, Jennifer Aniston’s relationship with Jim Curtis is blossoming in the open, and the world is cheering them on.
