Jennifer Aniston's whirlwind romance with wellness coach Jim Curtis has some of her closest friends sounding the alarm. According to multiple reports, Aniston's inner circle is worried that her new beau may be using their relationship to boost his own profile and finances.
The concerns stem from revelations that Curtis recently listed his New York City apartment for sale, after reportedly missing multiple payments on the property's homeowners association fees. Curtis had a lien placed on the $1.5 million condo in 2024 for over $29,000 in unpaid fees, which he only recently managed to pay off before putting the unit on the market.
A 'Savvy' Operator?
This isn't the first time Curtis has faced money troubles either. According to The U.S. Sun, he had previously racked up over $15,000 in unpaid HOA fees back in 2017, only to find himself in hot water again a few years later.
What this really means is that Curtis may be a savvier operator than he lets on. As one source told the National Enquirer, "Jim's sweet but savvy. He knows being with Jennifer turns him from unknown therapist to self-help superstar."
A 'Global Job'
The bigger picture here is that dating an A-list star like Aniston comes with immense scrutiny and pressure. As another insider told the National Enquirer, "Dating Jennifer Aniston isn't just a relationship — it's a global job. Every word, every smile, [every pause gets dissected]."
Aniston's Friends co-star Courteney Cox is reportedly urging the actress to "be careful" with Curtis, worried that he may not be able to handle the intense spotlight that comes with their relationship.
Only time will tell if Aniston's friends' concerns are warranted. But for now, it seems they just want to protect their beloved friend from any potential heartbreak or exploitation.
