Aniston’s sweet social media share comes after she recently got candid about her fertility struggles over the years. As a guest on Dax Shepard’s “Armchair Expert” podcast, she admitted that she never wanted to adopt children during her life. “I want my own DNA in a little person,” she told Shepard, 50. “That’s the only way, selfish or not, whatever that is, I’ve wanted it.”
Aniston hard-launched her relationship with Curtis in September via Instagram. Sharing a carousel of happy snaps that reflected on a summer well spent, she included a photo of the back of Curtis’ head as he enjoyed the sun falling over a beach.
Fans were quick to acknowledge the subtle nod to Curtis, who formed a friendship with Aniston prior to their connection turning romantic, within the post’s comments. “You think we wouldn’t notice photo number 17?,” asked a fan.
Us Weekly exclusively reported in July that Aniston and Curtis had begun dating after meeting through mutual friends. An insider told Us at the time, “They are being super private but have been spending a lot of time together. They are happy and really into each other.”
The pair were first spotted together over the 4th of July weekend in Mallorca where they were photographed enjoying a yacht trip with friends including Jason Bateman and his wife, Amanda Anka. Eyebrows raised after one of the photos showed Curtis rubbing Aniston’s shoulders, while another image showed her placing a hand on his thigh.
One month later, the duo were seen on a double date with Aniston’s longtime friend Courteney Cox and her partner, Johnny McDaid, in Malibu. In the weeks and months that followed, Curtis was also seen publicly supporting his girlfriend at multiple high-profile events including a celebration of Aniston’s haircare brand, LolaVie, in Los Angeles.
Curtis also attended the New York City season 4 premiere of Aniston’s TV series The Morning Show. While he skipped joining her on the event’s red carpet, Curtis was filmed chatting to a fellow guest inside the venue, per video footage shared by People on September 9.
Us’ July source claimed that the romance “feels like a healthy, grown-up relationship [and] her friends think he’s brilliant.”
