EXCLUSIVE Jennifer Aniston's alleged stalker thinks he is Jesus Christ and she is his queen, says wife
The wife of Jennifer Aniston 's alleged stalker has exclusively revealed to Daily Mail that he is desperate for the Friends legend to be his 'queen'.
Jimmy Carwyle, who also believes he is Jesus Christ, was arrested after sensationally ramming the security gate at the star's Bel-Air home on May 5 at 12:20pm.
The 48-year-old's disheveled and unsettling appearance shocked the world when he shuffled into an arraignment hearing, wrapped in an anti-suicide blanket, at Los Angeles Superior Court on May 8.
Prosecutors said Carwyle, from Mississippi, had 'repeatedly' harassed Aniston between March 1, 2023 to May 5, 2025, sending her 'unwanted social media, voicemail, and email messages.'
Julia Carwyle, who believes her husband is struggling with mental health problems, told Daily Mail he is a 'great guy' and that he has made three trips to meet with his celebrity infatuation.
She last saw her husband in September on the day he headed off on his latest California odyssey in an attempt to meet with Aniston, who was inside her $21 million home at the time he crashed into the property, although the two did not come face to face.
'He went to California six months ago,' said Julia, 48.
'He left in September and went and I haven't seen him since he left. He was leaving that day to go.
'He was going there because he was going to meet up with Jennifer. He was going to go see her.
'He actually thought he was going to meet Jennifer. I guess he was speaking with her. He had the impression that Jennifer Aniston and he were going to talk and meet.
'So naturally he's doing what anybody would do - he went across the country.'
Julia said Carwyle believed he would indeed meet up with the actress.
'He thought 'Maybe she's just going to meet a guy… to take a chance,'' she added. 'That's the way he was thinking.'
Social media posts allegedly from Carwyle were unearthed after the crash although it has not been confirmed that they belong to him.
Several referred to Aniston as his 'bride,' including one posted in October, allegedly referring to the actress as 'Jennifer Aniston Carwyle.'
Another post allegedly said that he and Aniston would be 'mended together' and referenced Adam and Eve.
The DA's office has accused Carwyle of 'repeatedly harassing the victim.' The harassment 'culminated when he allegedly crashed his vehicle through her front gate, causing substantial damage, and stopped in her driveway.'
Aniston's security rushed to the scene and 'held him at gunpoint' while they waited for the LAPD to arrive, the court was told.
Afterwards, Carwyle complained about back pain and was transported to hospital. The case was then handed over to the LAPD's Threat Management Unit.
Sources previously told local ABC affiliate, KABC, that Carwyle had a 'minor' criminal history.
In addition to stalking and vandalism charges, Carwyle faces a charge for aggravating the threat of great bodily harm.
'Stalking is a crime that can quickly escalate from harassment to dangerous, violent actions, threatening the safety of victims and our communities,' District Attorney Nathan Hochman said.
'My office is committed to aggressively prosecuting those who stalk and terrorize others, ensuring they are held accountable.'
He added that Deputy District Attorney Sam Hulefeld of LADA's Stalking and Threat Assessment Team is prosecuting the case.
Unearthed social media posts described a disturbing desire to marry Aniston from an account with the suspect's name
During the arraignment Judge Keith L Schwartz expressed doubt that Carwyle could understand him when a prosecutor requested that the defendant be ordered not to get near Aniston. A stay away order was granted.
The accused will go through mental-health court to determine whether he is competent to face charges.
His attorney, Deputy Public Defender Toral Malik, said: 'I don´t believe him staying away from Ms Aniston will be an issue at this time.
'You are not to have any contact with Jennifer Aniston under any conditions' the judge said.
Carwyle, who remains in jail, was also ordered to stay at least 100 yards away from Aniston's home.
Schwartz set bail at $150K and called for the next hearing to take place at the Mental Health Court in Hollywood on May 22.
Julia revealed to Daily Mail that her husband had also attempted to meet with Aniston on two previous occasions.
'That's his third trip out there to try and meet her,' she said.
Of the violent attempt to gain entry to the actress's hilltop home with his car, Julia added: 'I think he probably got a little aggravated because he could not (meet her).'
Julia noted she and Carwyle, a car mechanic, have been separated for 'a few years' after marrying in 2019.
'We had been split up for a while and I was thinking, well, if you want to go meet, all power to you, but it's not going to work.
'I just couldn't believe any of this.'
Grandmother Julia has four daughters from a previous relationship. Carwyle also has a daughter, Kelly, 23.
'Jimmy's a great guy,' insisted Julia. 'He's just had some things happen.'
Referring to the shocking pictures of him from his court appearance: 'This isn't him. It doesn't even look like him. He's not there.'
She said at some point that he must have 'flipped' and that something had 'manifested that we're all not aware of.
'It's something that's between him and his maker. Mental illness is real. It does not discriminate. He's going through a lot right now.
'He believes he was Jesus Christ and that she was supposed to be his queen.
'His mentality is nothing like it used to be. Something has triggered him. I don't know if he's having a midlife crisis or what.'
Julia said Carwyle's family are 'pretty upset' by recent events.
She described him as a 'family oriented man.'
'I love him,' she said. 'I don't know what I could do for him to make things better. I just want him to get help. His kids want him to get help,' added Julia.
'I guess he's been living out of his car. I've been helping him. I've been sending him money (via) Cash App when I could.
'I've been working… I've been taking care of my mom for the past couple of years, trying to help her.
'It's just been a rough point. It's just been a dark time in our lives and things have happened.
'I don't know how he ended up over there and how all that happened, but it just did.
'We just want to get him back home. His daughter needs her daddy. Little girls need their daddies.'

Every iPhone user needs to check out free surprise F1 movie feature – it will leave your hands SHAKING
APPLE has a little surprise for iPhone owners to celebrate its upcoming F1 movie starring Brad Pitt. And it will literally leave your hands shaking. The F1 movie has a star-studded cast with Hollywood A-Lister Pitt on screen alongside Damson Idris, as well as star power behind the scenes in the form of Top Gun: Maverick director Joseph Kosinski. Lewis Hamilton also serves as a producer on the project, recently revealing he would "call bulls***" on screenwriter Ehren Kruger's script "on the things that don't seem real and are not what F1 is about". Apple has released a special trailer like no other for the film on the Apple TV app - and it's free. The two-minute long clip is entirely haptic. So, users feel every twist, turn and engine rev throughout the video for an added extra level of fun. You even feel a softer vibration when they fasten their seat belts and taps when Pitt's character Sonny Hayes bounces a ball on a wall. It's thought to be the world's first haptic trailer. Users have been reacting online, saying: "It felt incredible! Like a Dual Sense controller." Another wrote on Reddit: "Not gonna lie, that's some awesome implementation from Apple." A third commented: "Ha that's kind of fun. I don't think I'd watch a full-length movie on my phone, but it made me pay more attention to the trailer at least." Apple interview with Greg Joz Joswiak on new artificial intelligence, screening, hold assist, carplay, liquid glass and ios updates iPhone owners can experience it for themselves in the Apple TV app as long as they have iOS 18.4 installed. The F1 movie is released in theatres across the US on June 23 and cinemas in the UK from June 25. Inside track on Hamilton's life LEWIS HAMILTON has driven his way into pole position as Formula One's most prolific winner. The British speedster lives life in the fast lane both on and off the track, with a string of high-profile romances and jet-set lifestyle. Hamilton made his name at McLaren and Mercedes but stunned the racing world by signing a £100million deal to join Ferrari for next season. His exploits have seen him rub shoulders with Hollywood icon Brad Pitt but Lew snubbed the chance to feature in Top Gun 2. And fans can follow his fortunes on the latest season of Netflix's smash hit Drive To Survive. Hamilton's talent saw him go from humble origins in Stevenage to boasting an £11m car collection. He joined celeb dating app Raya after splitting from Brazilian beauty Juliana Nalu. And his exes are said to include Rita Ora, Rihanna and Nicole Scherzinger. Hamilton was embroiled in a bitter feud with Nico Rosberg but the pair buried the hatchet to sport £35k watches they were given for FREE. He also shared high-profile battles with Fernando Alonso and Sebastian Vettel. But his most shocking showdown saw Max Verstappen handed the World Championship over him by a controversial safety car decision. The Brit is chasing a record eighth world title - the first of which came in 2008 and has seen Felipe Masa sue F1 for £62m after a crash saw him miss out.

Hear creepy audio of Diddy musing about 'crack pipe' girlfriend Jane: Live trial updates
Sean ' Diddy ' Combs' ex-girlfriend and accuser 'Jane' will return to the stand Thursday after his lawyers confronted her with loving and explicit messages they shared. In a shocking moment in court, the music mogul, 55, was heard on a voice note comparing the woman to a 'crack pipe' after one of the so-called freak offs and hotel nights. The second day of cross-examination by attorney Teny Geragos seemed aimed at supporting the defense position that the woman, who testified under a pseudonym, was a willing participant in the sometimes-weekly sex with male sex workers that Diddy directed and watched for hours. Prosecutors say they charged the rapper with sex trafficking and racketeering conspiracy because he used threats, drugs and violence to force women into unwelcome sexual experiences and used his employees and associates to help him get what he wanted. Diddy has pleaded not guilty. If convicted, he faces 15 years to life in prison. LISTEN: Diddy call ex his 'crack pipe' after freak off In a newly-released voice note from played to the court on Tuesday, Diddy told Jane: 'Baby [I] had a great time. 'You are the crack pipe.

Video game actor strike ends in US - but AI described as 'direct threat' to UK industry
Video game actors in the US have ended their strike after nearly a year of industrial action, over the use of artificial intelligence by game studios. More than 2,500 US performers were barred from working on games impacted by the strike while the Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA) negotiated a deal with studios. Now, after more than 11 months of discussions, a "tentative" agreement has been reached. "Patience and persistence has resulted in a deal that puts in place the necessary AI guardrails that defend performers' livelihoods in the AI age, alongside other important gains," said SAG-AFTRA's national executive director Duncan Crabtree-Ireland. Actors were banned from working with major game makers like Activision, Blindlight, Disney Character Voices, Electronic Arts, Epic Games, Formosa, Insomniac Games, Take 2 and WB Games. Other studios were also impacted by the strike, as actors took industrial action in solidarity. "We are pleased to have reached a tentative contract agreement that reflects the important contributions of SAG-AFTRA-represented performers in video games," said Audrey Cooling, spokesperson for the video game producers, to Sky News. "It delivers historic wage increases of over 24% for performers, enhanced health and safety protections, and industry-leading AI provisions requiring transparency, consent and compensation for the use of digital replicas in games." In the UK, actors protested in solidarity with their American counterparts, while Equity, the UK actors' union, called for a similar wide-reaching agreement between UK studios and actors. Earlier this week, the British Film Institute (BFI) released a report detailing the risks posed by AI to the UK screen sector, including video games, and described it as a "direct threat". The scripts of more than 130,000 films and TV shows, YouTube videos, and databases of pirated books have been used to train AI models, according to the report. AI poses a particular threat to some video game voice actors, according to one expert, because of the nature of their work creating animal or monster sound effects. "The generic stuff is the easiest thing for generative AI to replace," Video Games Industry Memo author George Osborn told Sky News previously. "Just saying to the model, 'make 200 monster noises' is much easier than convincingly [making AI] sound like it is having a conversation with someone," he said. Unlike the SAG-AFTRA actors' strike in 2023, which saw blockbusters like Deadpool 3 and Gladiator 2 delayed and entire TV series cancelled, huge delays to games were unlikely. Games take years to make and any game already in development before September 2023 was exempt from the strike. Tensions have risen in the game actor community since the industrial action began, as studios appeared to hire international actors to replace the striking US workers.
