From Brad Pitt to Jim Curtis: Jennifer Aniston’s Relationship Journey in 7 Moments
Jennifer Aniston has confirmed her relationship with Jim Curtis, and fans are falling all over themselves to wish the couple well. Aniston appears to be truly happy and relaxed with her new love, and fans genuinely want that for her. The famed actor’s illustrious career has been dotted with romantic heartache. She’s had several high-profile relationships and navigated two very high-profile divorces. Let’s take a look back at the highs and the lows of Jennifer Aniston’s romantic life.
Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt became the Hollywood It couple
Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt absolutely turned the world upside down in 1999 when they made their relationship public at the Emmy Awards. The duo, who were rumored to be dating, had not yet been photographed together until then. They showed up at the awards ceremony hand in hand, looking like a true power couple.
The duo’s romantic red carpet walk had everyone talking about their chemistry. While fans first met them as a couple in September 1999, they had been dating for several months prior. They were set up by their agents and moved in together quickly.
Brad Pitt did a photoshoot cosplaying a family with Angelina Jolie months after their split
Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt were a Hollywood power couple. Their wedding was one of the most heavily discussed events in entertainment history, drawing the attention of hundreds of paparazzi. The expensive wedding and the warm wishes of fans couldn’t keep them together forever, though. Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston announced the end of their marriage in January 2005 after weeks of speculation.
The end of the marriage would have been sad, but not historically significant if Brad Pitt hadn’t moved on so very quickly and publicly. In March 2005, just two months after announcing the end of his marriage, Pitt was spotted shooting a magazine feature with Angelina Jolie. The photoshoot, which appeared in W Magazine in July 2005, was largely considered insensitive and cruel. The feature was titled “domestic bliss” and depicted the actors, who began their relationship on set while Pitt was still married to Jennifer Aniston, as a married couple. Aniston later suggested Pitt had a “sensitivity chip” missing.
She found love with John Meyer, but only briefly
Jennifer Aniston’s post-divorce life was heavily scrutinized, and she attempted to maintain a relatively low profile for a few years. That all changed when her romance with John Mayer was made public.
Jennifer Aniston and John Mayer debuted their romance in April 2008, though they weren’t exactly trying to become a public couple. Paparazzi captured the pair holding hands and lounging by the pool at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel. The relationship quickly drew intense media attention as the photos circulated.
They split up twice, with Mayer claiming he wasn’t trying to “waste” anyone’s time. Speculation suggested that the musician, known for his moodiness and tendency to overshare, couldn’t handle the amount of attention that dating Aniston brought.
Jennifer Aniston got cozy with Justin
Jennifer Aniston had several short-lived romances after her marriage to Brad Pitt, but once she was ready to settle down, she really locked in. In 2011, Aniston and Justin Theroux sparked romance rumors, despite the screenwriter and actor being in a long-term relationship. In 2012, the duo vacationed together and later confirmed that they were dating. Over the next few years, they were spotted together regularly, looking deeply connected, despite their very different personas.
The lovebirds wed in a truly surprising ceremony. They were married on August 5, 2015, at their Bel-Air home, under the guise of celebrating Theroux’s birthday. Jimmy Kimmel officiated the wedding. Following their nuptials, they jetted off to Bora Bora. The pair announced their split in 2018, insisting it was amicable.

In 2020, all eyes were on the former flames as they reunited publicly for the very first time at the Screen Actors Guild Awards.
