**Jennifer Aniston Reportedly Having Doubts About New Romance After Past Revelations About Jim Curtis**
*Published September 26, 2025, 6:30 p.m. ET*
Jennifer Aniston is said to be experiencing doubts about her new romance with hypnotherapist Jim Curtis following revelations about his past that have left the actress feeling unsettled, RadarOnline.com can reveal.
The *Friends* star, 56, has been dating Curtis, 49, since the summer and appeared to be enjoying a fresh start. The couple was first photographed together during a yacht vacation in Mallorca in July. In recent weeks, Aniston even shared a glimpse of Curtis on Instagram alongside photos of her three rescue dogs.
### Is Jennifer Aniston Having Second Thoughts About Jim Curtis?
However, insiders now report that news of Curtis’s former connection to *Real Housewives of New York City* alum Bethenny Frankel has jolted Aniston out of the early “honeymoon period.”
One source shared, “Jen has longed for real happiness, but now she’s nervous that Jim’s past could come back to haunt them. She was floating in that early bubble of romance, and Bethenny’s revelation jolted her. It’s left her wondering who else might surface with stories.”
Frankel recently told listeners on her podcast earlier this month that she and Curtis dated “maybe 10 years ago.” While she downplayed the seriousness of their connection and dismissed his line of work as something she never took seriously, she added, “I’m happy for Jennifer Aniston, because I do believe she wants to find love… I think this is good. I like it, and I’m happy for her and him, who, like I said, I thought was a lovely man.”
Despite Frankel’s supportive tone, Aniston is said to have bristled at the revelation. A second insider explained, “Bethenny’s influence is massive, and while she didn’t criticize Jim, it rattled Jen to hear her talk about him so openly. To Jen, it felt like their relationship was suddenly up for public scrutiny, and now she’s questioning if more of Jim’s past might surface.”
Having had two high-profile marriages — one to Brad Pitt that ended in 2005, and another to Justin Theroux that ended in 2017 — Aniston has previously spoken about how public scrutiny has weighed heavily on her personal life. Friends say she fears the pattern may repeat itself.
### Jim Curtis’ Rough Past Exposed
Another source revealed, “Jen has loved the stability Jim gives her – no games, no unpredictability, just kindness. But moments like this shake her confidence. It’s made her stop and ask how much of his past she truly understands.”
Curtis, a self-styled wellness coach and author, has a complicated backstory. In his 2017 book, *The Stimulati Experience*, he admitted to struggles in his relationship with his teenage son, Aidan, who lives with his ex-wife, Rachel Napolitano. He wrote, “I wish I had a better relationship with my son, but he lives with his mother most of the time, and he’s p—– at me.”
For Aniston, the prospect of more revelations is a source of “great unease,” a source said.
The friend added, “Jen just wants a clean shot at love without all this drama attached. She’s waited years for the right man, but now it feels like her relationship with Jim is under attack. She’s not pulling the plug, but doubts are definitely creeping in.”
