Laura Dern is, allegedly, the reason behind Jennifer Aniston and Gabriel Aubry’s budding relationship.
According to Us Weekly, Dern was the one that encouraged Jennifer Aniston to get back into the dating scene.
Initially, The Morning Show had no interest to find love again but she saw how sociable Dern was. Aniston couldn’t, allegedly, help but be impressed with her fellow actress.
“In the last two years, Laura and Jen have started socializing more regularly, and Jen is incredibly impressed with her as a person and a reliable-sounding board,” the source said.
Jennifer Aniston was impressed with Laura Dern
The source added that Aniston is also impressed with how unfazed Dern is even though she’s had her fair share of heartbreaks.
“Jen is in unchartered territory right now. She’s rich, single, and decidedly middle-aged, so she feels like she needs to be careful about letting someone into her life who might take advantage of her. Laura has been able to let go of that kind of baggage, date around, and be more comfortable with strangers. Jen is working on doing the same,” the source said.
Jennifer Aniston dating Gabriel Aubry
Since Dern and Aniston are very close, the former took it upon herself to reassure Aniston that it’s just a date and not the end of the world. And this has, allegedly, helped the Friends star become more open to all romantic possibilities.
And luckily for Aubry, he, allegedly, came at the right time when Jennifer Aniston is finally ready to get herself out there.
“Physically he’s perfect. Eyes are a big thing for Jen… And she’s a sucker for guys with blonde hair and a deep tan,” the source said.
Brad Pitt supports ex-wife’s new relationship
And no Aniston story would be complete without mentioning her ex-husband Brad Pitt.
With this, the source alleged that Pitt wouldn’t mind it if Aniston is dating because she knows his ex-wife can make the right choice for herself.
“Jen’s an incredible catch. But seeing her smile again is the first and most important step. And she’s rolling with it,” the source said.
However, one should take the tabloid’s claims with a grain of salt.
There is no proof that Jennifer Aniston is dating again. And there’s also no proof that Dern encouraged her to start going out again.
