Jennifer Aniston and her new partner, Jim Curtis, were spotted together in New York City’s West Village. They were joined by friends Jason Bateman and Amanda Anka for a three-hour dinner.
Curtis, a 49-year-old life coach and hypnotist, attracted attention for using a cane and walking with a noticeable limp due to chronic health issues. The couple, who went public with their relationship last month, left the hotel separately to avoid media attention, according to a report by the Daily Mail.
Curtis has openly shared his struggles with Irritable Bowel Syndrome and chronic nerve pain, which originated from spinal cord lesions discovered in 1995 after his first year at the University of New Hampshire. This diagnosis shifted his lifestyle from one focused on athletics to one centred on wellness, largely inspired by a professor who introduced him to mindfulness and meditation.
