Jennifer Aniston’s recent trip to Mallorca didn’t just raise vacation envy, it also set off fresh speculation about a possible new figure in her personal life. As per The Daily Mail, the Friends star was seen arriving on the Spanish island alongside Jim Curtis, a life coach and self-described “transformational coach and hypnotherapist,” who commands an Instagram following of over half a million.

Curtis, often referred to as a “love guru,” has spoken openly about his journey through chronic pain and personal reinvention. After suffering from debilitating nerve issues following his freshman year at the University of New Hampshire in 1995, an MRI revealed spinal lesions, a turning point that led him to pursue alternative healing and eventually develop his signature therapy method, “hypno-realization.”

He describes it as a process to help people “break free from their past to create an entirely new reality of powerful loving connection.” Jennifer Aniston, who has experienced public breakups with Brad Pitt and Justin Theroux, appeared at ease on the holiday with Curtis, prompting fans and outlets to question if there’s more than just friendship between the two.

In a past conversation with Alyssa Nobriga, Curtis reflected on the discomfort of growth and uncertainty:

"In the perfect place at the perfect time, it may not feel perfect right because it couldn't be any other time, it couldn't be any other place or else you'd be there and therefore you are exactly where you need to be."

He elaborated, adding:

"And even if it's painful right a lot of us are experiencing a lot of pain... Like this shouldn't be happening to me you know because I shouldn't experience this illness or this breakup or this financial crush..."

After his TED talk, Curtis shared that people reached out in response to that very philosophy. His answer was consistent:

"Because you can't be anywhere else and so this is the perfect place at the perfect time even if it doesn't feel perfect."

Jennifer Aniston’s Mallorca outing with Jim Curtis may have come as a surprise to many, but those paying close attention might have noticed hints of a growing connection long before their sunny getaway.

Jennifer Aniston has been following Curtis on Instagram for nearly two years and has steadily engaged with his content. She often liked posts focused on healing, self-worth, and romantic growth. Just last week, she showed support for one of his affirmations that encouraged readers to move past breakups and “begin to call in the new empowered, healthy and divine love.”

The Friends alum appeared relaxed during her recent trip to Spain, stepping out in a chic black tank, flared jeans, and a wide-brimmed hat. She was later seen introducing Curtis to longtime friends Jason Bateman and Amanda Anka before the group joined a yacht gathering together.

While Mallorca drew attention, it wasn’t their first time appearing in public. Last month, the pair were spotted at the luxury resort Ventana Big Sur in Northern California.

Aniston’s appreciation for Curtis’s message has been visible for months. In November 2023, she liked a post discussing whether it’s better to “settle or stay alone,” a reflection on cultivating meaningful relationships rather than isolation. And in May, she told her followers she was reading Shift: Quantum Manifestation Guide, Curtis’s own book.

Jennifer Aniston also revealed that she turned to hypnosis to overcome a fear of flying, a method that aligns with Curtis’s own professional philosophy.

“But I have been doing some hypnosis lately... it’s shockingly good!” she shared.

Aniston’s romantic history has often unfolded in the public eye. Her marriage to Brad Pitt, once deemed a Hollywood fairytale, came to an end in 2005 amid widespread attention over Pitt’s on-set connection with Mr. & Mrs. Smith co-star Angelina Jolie.

Jennifer Aniston later tied the knot with Justin Theroux in 2015, nearly a decade after her high-profile split. But the relationship, too, came to a quiet close after three years when the couple officially parted ways.
