SPOILER ALERT!

Jennifer Aniston's new beau, Jim Curtis, has been making waves with his recent high-profile romance with the beloved Friends alum, 56. But what you might not know is that this handsome hypnotherapist and life coach has a secret past - and it involves none other than our favorite Real Housewife of New York City, Bethenny Frankel!

In a juicy revelation on her latest podcast episode, "Just B," the 54-year-old media personality spilled the tea about her brief romance with Jim Curtis. Yes, you read that right! The former RHONY star dished out all the deets (well, almost) about her past relationship with the now-famous hypnotherapist.

"I dated Jennifer Aniston's boyfriend and he was a nice guy," Bethenny casually mentioned, trying to maintain some level of discretion. "Out of respect" for the new couple, she wouldn't dish out too many juicy details, but we managed to get our hands on some exclusive info!

The mother-of-one started by prefacing that she's genuinely happy for Jennifer and Jim, saying, "I’m happy for her, and I want to say this in the right way..." And then it all came pouring out - Bethenny shared that she had a brief relationship with Jim Curtis, who is also a hypnotherapist and life coach in the wellness space.

"I didn’t get too into the wellness aspect because, let's be real, sometimes I don't take it seriously," Bethenny confessed. "But Jim was earlier in his journey when we dated, and there was this earthiness to him that does vibe with Jen Aniston." We can see why she thinks so - after all, both Jennifer and Jim are huge advocates of meditation, yoga, therapy, and dogs!

'Out of respect' for the new couple, the former Real Housewives of New York City star said she wouldn't divulge 'too much' about the former relationship

The outspoken social media influencer also revealed her predictions for the new couple's future. "I think they'll go the distance," Bethenny confidently stated. "He’s a handsome, nice man, and he seems kind. I think this is good." She even went as far as to say that Jim and Jennifer share an "earthy, mellow" connection - something she thinks will make their relationship last.

Now, let's talk about how they met. Sources close to the couple told TheScholarlyNote.com in August that Jennifer and Jim were spotted on a yacht vacationing together in Mallorca, Spain. "They do everything together," an insider spilled. "If they have to be apart, they're on the phone all the time - it's like they're glued together!" And we can see why - with their shared interests and love for wellness, it's no wonder they clicked.

But what about Jennifer's past relationships? Well, she was previously married to Brad Pitt from 2000 to 2005 and Justin Theroux from 2015 to 2017. However, in a recent interview with WSJ. Magazine, the actress opened up about her difficult childhood experiences - specifically how her parents' bitter divorce affected her love life.

"I didn’t like the idea of sacrificing who you were or what you needed," Jennifer explained. "So it was almost easier to just be kind of solo." And now, it seems she's found someone who truly understands and appreciates her for who she is - Jim Curtis!

As we continue to watch this new couple navigate their whirlwind romance, one thing's for sure: they're definitely a match made in heaven!
