Jennifer Aniston seems to have found love again. The 56-year-old Friends star was seen enjoying a quiet dinner in New York City with her new boyfriend, wellness coach, and author Jim Curtis. This marks her first public relationship since her 2018 split with Justin Theroux. The couple, who reportedly met through mutual friends, are said to be keeping things “low-key” despite increasing public appearances.
An Intimate Dinner in the West Village
According to People, Aniston and Curtis were seen dining for over three hours with close friends Jason Bateman and Amanda Anka on August 4. The outing took place in NYC’s West Village. Aniston looked chic in a white sundress and sandals, while Curtis, 49, sported a blue shirt and white jeans, walking with a cane due to past health issues.
Though they left in the same car, the couple exited through separate doors, suggesting a still-private dynamic.

Sources told People that the pair have been quietly dating for a few months after meeting through mutual friends. Interestingly, Aniston was familiar with Curtis’s work beforehand, having read his self-help book and followed his content online for nearly two years.

Who is Jim Curtis?
Curtis is a hypnotherapist and motivational coach whose wellness journey was born out of his personal struggle with IBS and nerve pain, as reported by the Daily Mail. Diagnosed with a serious nerve condition in 1995, Curtis turned to mindfulness and hypnotherapy. He is now a published author and shares regular insights through his newsletter, where he recently wrote:
“I never thought I would have the abundance, joy, and love I now experience… That pain resulted in this magic.”
