Jennifer Aniston has officially gone public with her relationship with Jim Curtis. The Friends star shared a black-and-white photo on Instagram, hugging him from behind, to wish him a happy birthday. She captioned it, “Happy birthday my love! Cherished!” Fans immediately noticed, celebrating the rare glimpse into her personal life.

The post also sparked engagement rumors. A sparkling diamond band on Jennifer’s ring finger caught people’s attention, though neither she nor Curtis has confirmed anything. Social media quickly called it the “hard launch of the year,” as Aniston usually keeps her romantic life private. Fans were thrilled to see her so happy, with comments praising her joy and positivity.

Jennifer and Jim Curtis were first linked in July 2025 after being spotted together on a yacht in Mallorca, Spain. Curtis is a hypnotherapist, author, and life coach. A source told PEOPLE that they were introduced by friends, and Jennifer was already familiar with his work. “He’s very different from anyone she’s dated before,” the insider said, adding that her close friends love him.

Earlier in September, Jennifer had shared a summer photo dump, where fans noticed Curtis in one shot, hinting at their relationship. With this birthday post, she has now officially confirmed that she is happily in love.
