Jim Curtis, boyfriend of actress Jennifer Aniston, has revealed that their romantic relationship developed organically after a friendship that spanned several months.

"There was a many-month friendship first," Curtis told the Sunday Times Magazine in a recent interview. He described the progression of their relationship as "more natural, more organic, less needy" compared to his past romantic experiences.

Curtis, a hypnotherapist, and Aniston first connected after the actress engaged with some of his Instagram posts. He also shared a premonition he experienced on his 47th birthday, anticipating a significant new romance by his 50th birthday with someone unlike anyone he had previously been with.

Aniston, known for her roles in "Friends" and "The Morning Show," officially confirmed her relationship with Curtis on Instagram in November, coinciding with his 50th birthday celebration. The couple was first romantically linked in July 2025, after being seen together on vacation in Spain.

Since then, Aniston and Curtis have publicly shared aspects of their relationship. Earlier in September, Aniston interviewed Curtis about his new book, "The Book of Possibility," during an event in New York City. They have also discussed their methods for handling disagreements, including using meditation techniques, during an appearance on the "Jamie Kern Lima Show."
