Jennifer Aniston dating Jim Curtis
The Morning Show actress - who hasn't publicly romanced anyone since her 2017 split from husband Justin Theroux - is said to be "really into" the 49-year-old hypnotist after being set up by "mutual friends".
A source told Us Weekly magazine: 'They are being super private but have been spending a lot of time together. They are happy and really into each other.'
The couple are said to have 'started off as friends but really hit it off' over time.
The source added: 'They've been hanging out a lot, but very much on the DL at her home in LA. It's very Zen, and she has always been very much into that. They're a good match.'
Jennifer, 56, and Jim were pictured together last weekend while on vacation in Mallorca, Spain, with the former Friends star's close friend Jason Bateman and his wife Amanda Anka.
Although the pair have kept their romance out of the spotlight until now, they have been supporting one another on social media.
Jennifer has liked most of the life coach's Instagram posts over the last few months, including a video posted last week about recovering from a "divorce, break-up or difficult romance", and Jim liked her 25 May photo dump, which included a copy of his 2024 book Shift: Quantum Manifestation Guide.
Jennifer recently expressed her desire to perform in a Broadway show.
She told People magazine: "I definitely want to do a Broadway play. That's on my bucket list, but it's finding the time and finding the right piece, the right material.
"But I absolutely have to do a play on Broadway."
Jennifer is one of the biggest names in Hollywood, but she previously confessed to being terrible at auditions because she struggles to find immediate chemistry with a stranger.
Appearing on The Hollywood Reporter's Drama Actress Roundtable - which also featured Nicole Kidman, Jodie Foster, Sofia Vergara, Brie Larson, Naomi Watts and Anna Sawai - Jennifer said: "When you're in an audition room, you're already at a disadvantage. Maybe you'd have chemistry with this person if you were in a different environment, and not, like, 'Create chemistry. Ready? Go!'
"And I'm a terrible auditioner, always was. I waitressed forever before I could finally get something, which was a Bob's Big Boy commercial."
Jennifer also insisted that she would never get intimate with an actor during a chemistry test.
The movie star said: "I haven't been told you're going to have to lay down and [get intimate with an actor for a chemistry test], and if asked, I would never."

Aussie tennis star Jelena Dokic's 'very special person' revealed as Melbourne hospitality worker Yane Veselinov
Jelena Dokic has officially gone public with new boyfriend Yane Veselinov after months of speculation about the mystery man. Dokic, 42, took to Instagram on Monday to reveal the identity of her new beau months after published bombshell footage of the pair getting cosy at Melbourne Airport. "You are my calm, safe, peaceful and happy place. So glad I found you," Dokic wrote alongside a romantic snap with her new partner. It can now be revealed that the new love in Jelena's life is a hospitality operations manager who describes himself on Instagram as a "food and wine enthusiast, pleasure seeker and life enjoyer". Dokic stoked speculation about her love life on Sunday after sharing a glimpse of a night out with a mystery date two years on from her shock split from Brazilian-born Tin Bukic. The Aussie tennis great has just wrapped up commentary duties covering the iconic Wimbledon tennis tournament, the same event where she reached the semifinal in 2000 at just 16 years old. This year's tournament saw Poland's Iga Swiatek thrash American Amanda Anisimova in the women's final, while Italy's Jannik Sinner defeated Spain's Carlos Alcaraz in a four-set thriller in the men's tournament. On Sunday, Dokic marked the end of Wimbledon fever by sharing a photo of a cocktail in a ritzy restaurant via her Instagram. 'A little mid Wimbledon drink with a very special person,' the retired tennis great wrote in the caption. The former World No. 4 did not reveal the identity of the 'special person' but her loyal fans flooded the comment section asking if Dokic was back on the dating scene. 'Is this what I think it is! So happy to hear this gorgeous Jelena,' one fan wrote. 'Enjoy your time with someone special.' 'Like the sound of a special person Jelena, enjoy your time together,' a second follower wrote. Dokic split from her previous partner, Bukic, in late 2022 after an almost two-decade-long relationship. She recently opened up on the Mental As Anyone podcast about how the demise of her relationship jeopardised her plans to start a family. 'I was in a relationship for almost 19 years from the age of 20, and right when we split up, we were about to start trying for a family,' Jelena said. 'I actually think I would be a good mum, to be honest; I love kids.' Dokic revealed she was now planning to start a family as a 'single parent' and was open to exploring adoption. 'It is something I would like to do because I love kids,' she said. 'I didn't have the best experience (but) if I was, let's say, a single mum and adopted one day, it would have all the love in the world.'

Former MasterChef judge reveals secret addiction battle
Former MasterChef Australia judge and hospitality entrepreneur George Calombaris has spoken of his battle with alcohol addiction after a series of scandals rocked his empire. Appearing on the podcast Ouzo Talk, Calombaris detailed his spiral after his MAdE Establishment group had payroll issues, underpaying staff more than $7 million over a six year period. The celebrity chef and Melbourne personality paid back all the staff's wages and superannuation, including a fine of $200,000. It wasn't the only controversy to snag the disgraced star, in 2017 he was charged with assault following an altercation with a fan at the A-League grand final. The conviction was overturned on appeal and the judge imposed a 12-month good behaviour bond while striking the criminal conviction from his permanent record. The food at Gazi Sydney Credit: Instagram Calombaris told the podcast it had been a difficult time. 'It was six months of pain you know, I had to go in and out of court three times, hire one of the best KC's of the time,' he said. It was also around this period that he and fellow MasterChef judges Matt Preston and Gary Mehigan left the Channel 10 show due to contract negotiation breakdowns. Then, when the pandemic hit in 2020, Calombaris found himself at rock bottom. 'After COVID hit, I'm suddenly sitting in Melbourne, which is shut for now two years, sitting with my pyjamas on … looking at my phone going there's no emails, there's nothing to do (and I) start drinking daily,' he said. The food at Gazi Sydney Credit: Instagram The 46-year-old told of how around three months in, he got in his car and drove down the road, and was found by his brother 'pissed as a fart'. 'And that was a moment, he really slapped it out of me and went enough is enough.' But, it appears that the setbacks have not dampened the entrepreneurial spirit in Calombaris as he moved his successful venture Gazi from Melbourne to Sydney, where it looks likely to stay. 'Sydney's truly an international city, I've travelled everywhere in the world with my job and Sydney's in the top five cities in the world,' he said. 'I feel that there's this buzz here and I'm a part of this buzz and we've got lots of good plans here.' Lifeline: 13 11 14

Australian tennis icon Jelena Dokic hard launches new relationship with Yane Veselinov
Australian tennis icon Jelena Dokic has finally gone public with her new boyfriend Yane Veselinov. The much-loved commentator hard launched the new relationship on Instagram. The couple had previously been photographed together in May, but hadn't confirmed the romance publicly until now. Dokic, 42, posted a photo of herself with Veselinov, writing: 'You are my calm, safe, peaceful and happy place. So glad I found you.❤️' The post was quickly flooded with likes and comments from her adoring fans. 'Oh YAYYYYYY!!!! So happy for you xxxx you deserve all the joy and happiness life has to offer,' one fan wrote. 'This makes me so happy! You deserve all the happiness in the world Jelena!' Another said. 'You seem very happy. All the best Jelena x,' another wrote. 'So happy to see you happy,' another said. Dokic was previously in a 19-year relationship with Tin Bikic that ended in 2021. Since then she has rebuilt her life (she has previously stated that she was a mess after their romance ended) and undergone a huge transformation, both mentally and physically. The story about the abuse she suffered from her late father Damir, who died last month, has also been detailed in the series Unbreakable: The Jelena Dokic Story. Dokic, who just wrapped up two weeks of commentating at Wimbledon for Channel 9, recently opened up on her desire to be a mum. Despite her own tumultuous upbringing as a child and a young woman that left her forever mentally scarred, Dokic said she has so much love to give. 'I actually think I would be a good mum, to be honest,' Dokic said on the podcast Mental As Anyone. 'I love kids.' But, despite that, Dokic sadly admits that her parenting dream may never be realised. 'I don't think that that's going to happen for me,' she said. 'I was in a relationship for almost 19 years from the age of 20 and right up to when we split up, we were about to start trying for a family.' Dokic said that the abuse she received throughout her life never crushed her maternal instincts. Surprisingly, she said it might have even nourished them. 'Even 15 years ago, when I was 25, I always said, 'I want to have kids, but I want to adopt',' she said. 'Maybe it comes from when you grow up maybe in a home that's fractured and with pain and you go, maybe I can give something different to a kid that I know maybe will have the same, or they won't have parents or something like that. 'So I always felt like I wanted to do that for at least one kid in the world. 'That's a big kind of wish of mine and passion and I hope to do it one day. 'Did I at one stage maybe think, I didn't have the best experience and know a lot of people with parents and having that childhood and what would that mean for me? 'Because I know a lot people that have been through family violence or abuse, domestic violence, however you want to frame it, they are worried about that, whether they would be the same or if there's something there.' Dokic said she would consider adopting a child, with or without a father. '(But I'd) love it to have a father as well,' she said. 'I know that I can give it absolutely everything and would have all the love and support and I would be completely different and … I could never be that (like my father) ever. 'I know that yes, obviously, it's a challenge, which I would love. I would embrace it and take it on. 'I just love kids so much. I know I would be a bloody good mum and I know I would give it the love in the world of a million people. 'I have so much love to give.'
