It was reported she was left ‘blindsided’ when her ex-husband Justin Theroux married his partner Nicole Brydon after almost three years of dating earlier this month. But showbiz fans have now gone into a frenzy speculating that Jennifer Aniston may have moved on – with Hollywood actor Pedro Pascal.
The former Friends actress, 56, and Gladiator II star, 49, were spotted dining at West Hollywood’s Tower Bar at the Sunset Tower hotel recently, setting tongues wagging that Pedro could become the next Mr Aniston.
Eyewitnesses say the Hollywood stars arrived at the restaurant at around 8pm, and spent over three hours together, leaving separately at 11:30pm. Many flocked to social media after the photos emerged, with one person writing on X, ‘If by some weird cosmic miracle Pedro Pascal and Jennifer Aniston become romantically involved, my heart would be so, so happy.’
It has been reported that Pedro – who’s thought to be single – is joining the cast of Jennifer’s Apple TV+ series with Reese Witherspoon, The Morning Show, when it returns for a fourth season later this year.
Last January, Jennifer and Reese asked Pedro to star on the show on the red carpet of the Critics’ Choice Awards, with him asking if the role will involve ‘anything romantic with anybody’. Jennifer jokingly responded, ‘All of us,’ before Pedro replied, ‘I sleep with everyone on the show? I’m in. Alright, I’ll be waiting to hear from my agent.’
Of course, Jennifer is no stranger to a Hollywood hunk, with her most famous relationship being with Brad Pitt – who she was married to for almost five years. Following her split from Brad in 2005, she went on to date her The Break-Up co-star Vince Vaughn, as well as singer John Mayer, before marrying Justin in 2015. However, they announced their separation in 2018, after eight years together.
heat reported in February that Jen had been enjoying a string of secret dates, with a source telling us, ‘Jen is very good at flying under the radar. That’s why her dating life seems so dead – it’s all happening behind closed doors. She much prefers to control the situation. Anytime word gets out that she’s seeing someone, it’s under the microscope and it puts added pressure on things. She’d rather not deal with that until it’s serious.’
