JEN'S GOT A NEW MAN AND ADAM Sandler's Got His Two Cents!

Get ready for some juicy gossip, folks! Jennifer Aniston, 56, has got a new man in her life - hypnotist hunk Jim Curtis, 49 - and her longtime friend Adam Sandler is spilling the tea!

Adam, who has been married to his wife Jackie since 2023, gave an interview on Access Hollywood where he shared his thoughts on Jennifer's latest relationship. And let me tell you, it's a doozy! "Come on, whatever is going on with Aniston, I'm happy for," Adam said at the premiere of his new film Happy Gilmore 2. "She's just a solid human being, and anything she's doing, but I'm always wishing the best 'cause I love her."

Last week Aniston appeared to be dropping hints about the new man in her life. On Monday, she took to Instagram Stories with a pair of cryptic posts that had fans reading between the lines

But that's not all, folks! Jennifer herself opened up about her love life in a recent interview with Closer magazine, where she revealed that she's taking things slowly with Jim. "A good place to be is to be open to [love], but not seeking it," she said. "That way you don't put any pressure on the situation, and if it happens organically, then amazing."

And when it comes to keeping her love life under wraps, Jennifer is as tight-lipped as ever. "No matter how long I have been in the industry, I will never get used to people thinking they have any sort of right to know about your personal life," she told Closer magazine.

So, what's the scoop on Jim Curtis? Well, let me tell you - he's got a reputation for being a total sweetheart! According to sources close to the couple, Jen is "feels very connected to Jim, as they have the same level of emotional intelligence, unlike some of her previous suitors." And it seems like their romance is going strong - they were spotted together on vacation in Mallorca, Spain, during Fourth of July weekend!

She was famously married to Brad Pitt from 2000 to 2005 before their headline-making split when Pitt began a relationship with Angelina Jolie while filming Mr. & Mrs. Smith (seen in 2004)

But wait, there's more! Jennifer took to Instagram Stories earlier this month with a pair of cryptic posts that had fans reading between the lines. First, she reposted a tweet that read: "The Friends theme song was right, no one told us life was gonna be this way" - seemingly referencing an unexpected new chapter in her life.

Then came the real eyebrow-raiser: a quote from 'mindfulness expert' Case Kenny that read, "People who still radiate love in a world that has shown them its darkest sides, please never change." Fans immediately began theorizing that the message was about Curtis, who's known for his uplifting, love-centric philosophy.

And it seems like Jen is a big fan of Jim's work - she's been following him on Instagram for almost two years! Meanwhile, Jim has been sharing inspirational quotes and "manifestations" to help people 'break free from their past and patterns' to find love. And let me tell you, it seems like his approach is working wonders for Jen!

She later tied the knot with actor and writer Justin Theroux in 2015, but the marriage ended in divorce three years later; (seen in 2015)

But before we get too caught up in the romance, let's take a trip down memory lane. Remember when Jennifer was married to Brad Pitt? Yeah, that was a whole thing! And what about her marriage to Justin Theroux? Well, it ended after just three years.

And then there was the time Jennifer spoke candidly about her private struggle to have children - and the emotional toll it took. "It was a challenging road for me, the baby-making road," she admitted. "All the years and years and years of speculation... It was really hard."

But hey, at least Jen has come out the other side with a newfound sense of perspective. As she told Closer magazine, "I have zero regrets." And we're rooting for her all the way!

THE SCHOLARLY NOTE EXCLUSIVE

Want to know more about Jim Curtis' personal life? Well, let me tell you - he's got a whole lot of drama in his past! According to sources close to the couple, Jim was previously married to Rachel Napolitano, but their relationship reportedly ended not long after she gave birth to their son, Aidan, who is now a teenager.

And get this - Jim has even spoken publicly about his own struggles with nerve pain and depression. Beginning in the summer of 1995, right after his freshman year at the University of New Hampshire, when he was hit with severe nerve pain that would stay with him for years.

An MRI later revealed lesions on his spinal cord, a diagnosis that pushed Curtis to pivot from his 'frat guy athlete' persona and explore a different path focused on healing and personal transformation. He credits a university professor for setting that new course into motion. "He taught me to meditate and introduced me to the idea of mindfulness: focusing on just being present," Jim shared in a 2017 interview.

And there you have it, folks! The full scoop on Jennifer Aniston's latest relationship - and Adam Sandler's take on it all!
