Jennifer Aniston's new man sparks concern as he's seen hobbling on a date with her A-list pals
The 49-year-old guru was seen hobbling as he arrived for a night on the town in the West Village neighborhood of New York City with his 56-year-old ladylove on Monday.
The two - who revealed their romance last month - enjoyed a double date with Jennifer's close pal Jason Bateman, 56, and his longtime wife Amanda Anka, also 56, for their second public outing together.
Jim - who has been open about his struggle with IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) and past fight with severe nerve pain - looked visibly strained as he used a cane while gingerly walking into the hotel after a three-hour dinner.
No doubt the two still want to keep their relationship under wraps as they left through different doors in the hotel despite using the same car.
The former star of Friends looked stylish for the night out as she sported a white maxi dress with sandals.
Jennifer - who was previously married to Brad Pitt from 2000 until 2005, and then Theroux from 2011 until 2017 - sparked romance rumors after she was spotted with the life coach on vacation in Mallorca, Spain, during Fourth of July weekend.
'She's dating Jim and is very happy, but she's still taking things slowly,' a source previously told DailyMail.com.
They adding that Jen 'feels very connected to Jim, as they have the same level of emotional intelligence, unlike some of her previous suitors.'
Before that Aniston appeared to be dropping hints about the new man in her life.
On July 14, she took to Instagram Stories with a pair of cryptic posts that had fans reading between the lines.
First, the Friends alum 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.

Curtis regularly posts inspirational quotes and 'manifestations' to help people 'break free from their past and patterns' to find love - and Aniston has been following him on the social media platform for almost two years.
Meanwhile, Jen's Instagram clues came hot on the heels of Curtis expressing how meaningful their Mallorca getaway had been.
'I am back from vacation and what an experience!' he wrote in his newsletter, according to Page Six.
'When I was sick, sad, stuck and in pain I never thought I would have the abundance, joy and love I now experience on a daily basis.
'I just took one step, made one decision and the next followed — now I look back and realize, oh! That course, that life change, that pain, resulted in this magic.'
Jim added: 'The same life that brings struggle also brings opportunity. The possibility of something better — more aligned, more free, more meaningful — is always here.'
Curtis has had his own share of life-changing challenges.
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,' Curtis shared in a 2017 interview.
Curtis was previously married to Rachel Napolitano, though their relationship reportedly ended not long after she gave birth to their son, Aidan, who is now a teenager.
Aniston, of course, has had her own romantic history in the spotlight.
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.
She later tied the knot with actor and writer Justin Theroux in 2015, but the marriage ended in divorce three years later.
In a 2022 interview, Aniston opened up for the first time 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.
'I was going through IVF, drinking Chinese teas, you name it. I was throwing everything at it,' she added. '
'I would've given anything if someone had said to me, 'Freeze your eggs. Do yourself a favor.' You just don't think it. So here I am today. The ship has sailed.'

Lizzo says she 'still thinks she's big' after dramatic weight loss transformation
Lizzo has dazzled fans with her drastic weight loss, but mentally, the hitmaker has said she isn't feeling any different. The hitmaker, 37, who has admitted to having a complicated relationship with food, is working on making emotional changes to her self-perception. 'I like how I look now. I still think I'm big. I'm still wearing plus-size clothing. I have the same rolls. I got the same belly, the same thighs — I think I'm just a smaller version,' she told Women's Health in an interview published on Monday. Regarding her confidence about herself, even before dropping an estimated 60 pounds, she explained, 'Body positivity has nothing to do with staying the same. 'Body positivity is the radical act of daring to exist loudly and proudly in a society that told you you shouldn't exist.' Lizzo, who was targeted by harsh comments as a larger person, explained: 'Me saying I love myself in 2016 was offensive to people.' Lizzo recently admitted that she doesn't feel any different after her dramatic weight loss. 'I like how I look now. I still think I'm big,' she told Women's Health; Lizzo seen left in 2022 and right in 2025 'How dare you love yourself? You are fat and Black and you're a woman, so you shouldn't love yourself,' she said of the messages sent her way. The Yitty founder has referred to the change in her body as 'releasing' rather than 'losing' weight. 'Let me tell you this. It's okay to release weight.' the About Damn Time artist told the publication. 'It's okay to gain weight after you've released weight, because what you're not going to do is shame me if my body changes again and I get bigger'. The Good as Hell singer has denied using Ozempic, or other weight loss drugs, but says, 'If I did all of this on Ozempic, if I did all this with surgery, I would be just as proud of myself, because this sh*t is hard. 'Everyone who's ever been in a bigger body in this current version of society knows that this sh*t ain't easy. Existing isn't easy'. Lizzo actually copped to trying Ozempic, briefly, but found it didn't help her. 'Ozempic works because you eat less food, yeah? So if you eat right, it makes you feel full,' she told the Just Trish podcast in June. 'But if you can just do that on your own and get mind over matter, it's the same thing'. Lizzo was not alone in her abandonment of the costly medications which can have a price tag of more than $1,000 a month. A new report on behalf of 19 U.S. Blue Cross and Blue Shield health insurance plans found that only about one-third of patients who started taking the drugs were still taking them a year later, according to Reuters. In a recent post showing her before and after Lizzo described how she did it. 'I work my ass off, training 3x a week, daily sauna & cardio, adding animal protein back into my diet, hiring a chef who helps me meal prep and keeps track of what I put into my body in a calorie deficit, cutting out sugary Starbucks & full fat sodas & potato chips… I quit drinking for the longest… (but I'm drinking again cus I earned it!).'
