Few women embody the truism that age is nothing but a number more persuasively than Jennifer Aniston.

At 56, the actress, who has been captivating audiences again in the fourth season of the Apple TV+ hit The Morning Show, is at the top of her game not only professionally, but personally, too.

Last week, she finally confirmed her relationship with the wellness coach and author Jim Curtis in a heartwarming Instagram tribute to him on his 50th birthday. “Happy birthday my love. Cherished,” she wrote beneath a black and white image of her hugging Jim.

The couple were first spotted together on a yacht in Majorca in July, making this Jennifer's first public relationship since she split from her former husband, the actor Justin Theroux, whom she married in 2015.

Jim, whose website describes him as a transformational coach working at the intersection of science and spirituality, has supported Jennifer at several events, including the September premiere of The Morning Show, but this is the first time the pair have been pictured together. He replied to her post with a kissing-face emoji.

As she lives her best life, Jennifer looks better than she’s ever done. She also looks like the best possible version of herself, rather than an unfeasibly younger one. With typical pragmatism, she’s chosen self-improvement over drastic change, putting the work into finessing her face, body, wardrobe and soul with a dedication and tenacity that’s inspiring.

What the actress doesn’t know about wellness isn’t worth knowing. What's different about her, however, is that her curious mind and encyclopaedic knowledge are combined with a drive and dedication that ensure that, rather than just researching the latest wellness trends, she acts on – and sticks to – them.
