Jennifer Aniston supports beau Jim Curtis on special day
Jennifer Aniston showed up in full support mode for boyfriend Jim Curtis as he marked a meaningful moment in his professional life.
The actress attended Curtis’ book event at Godmother’s bookstore in Summerland, California, on Saturday, Jan. 3, quietly cheering him on as he hosted his A Deep Reset for the New Year gathering.
The couple was photographed arriving together at the cosy bookstore, where Curtis, a hypnotherapist, connected with attendees during the event.
Curtis kept his look relaxed in a black T-shirt layered with a gray cardigan and plaid pants, while Aniston opted for a low-key winter outfit, wearing a green sweater and jeans as she stayed close by his side.
Their appearance together is the latest glimpse into a relationship that has steadily grown stronger over the past year.
Romance rumours first surfaced in July when Aniston and Curtis were spotted together on a yacht.
By November, the Friends alum made things official on Instagram, sharing a heartfelt tribute for Curtis’ 50th birthday.
As 2025 came to a close, Curtis reflected on the year with a sweet Instagram post featuring the two sitting together in a car.
“Some amazing things happened this year, but it’s always the people who make it,” he wrote.
Aniston echoed the sentiment in her own way, sharing an Instagram Reel that included a tender snap of Curtis cuddling one of her dogs.
“BUH-BYEEEEE 2025,” she captioned the clip.
According to a source close to Aniston, the relationship developed gradually and thoughtfully. “Jen really valued their friendship in the beginning of the year,” the insider said.
“When it all took a turn to something more romantic, she was cautious at first. Now, she’s excited that she just went for it.”
The source added that the connection between Aniston and Curtis feels especially meaningful.
Their relationship “feels like kismet,” and Aniston “truly loves” him. As the insider explained, “He’s brought so many good things into her life.”
From quiet bookstore appearances to shared moments online, Aniston’s support for Curtis reflects a partnership built on patience, encouragement and genuine affection.
Dwayne Johnson has stunned fans and fashion critics alike by arriving at the 2026 Met Gala in a bold, custom-made pleated skirt.
Walking the red carpet hand-in-hand with his wife, Lauren Hashian, the star known as “The Rock” swapped his usual trousers for a black mohair tailcoat and matching skirt designed by Thom Browne.
The intricate outfit was a true work of art, featuring a “skeletal composition” made from over 350 metres of hand-pleated silk ribbons.
When journalists caught up with him to ask how he felt about the ensemble, Johnson was quick to explain that the look was deeply rooted in his heritage.
He mentioned that when the design team initially questioned if he would be comfortable with a pleated skirt, his answer was an immediate yes.
Johnson pointed out that in Polynesian culture, men frequently wear lavalavas and skirts, noting that the most masculine men in his culture embrace these garments.
“I feel great!” he told reporters, laughing off any suggestion that the outfit was anything less than traditional for him.
The actor joins an elite list of attendees at this year’s event, which is being hosted by a committee including the likes of Zoë Kravitz, Sabrina Carpenter, and Doja Cat.
As one of the most talked-about men of the night, Johnson’s choice to embrace his Polynesian roots through high fashion directly addressed the “Fashion is Art” theme.
By blending Thom Browne’s avant-garde tailoring with the cultural significance of the lavalava, he managed to turn a red-carpet moment into a meaningful conversation about identity and what it really means to be a modern man.
Cosmopolitan editor discusses what celebrities might wear
A senior fashion editor at Cosmopolitan said celebrities’ outfits could vary vastly as they take on their own interpretations of this year’s theme.
Jessica Neises said some could lean into the “body and fitted silhouettes,” meaning bodycon dresses. Some stars could also tap into the art side.
“Maybe the garment itself is a beautiful piece of art with embroidery or different beading,” she said.
Neises said she thinks there will be a lot of color and vibrancy on the red carpet.
“Tonight is not about being quiet with the fashion. It’s really about being loud. Hopefully, no plain black suits. We want extravagance,” she said.

What is the dress code?
The Met Gala’s dress code is “Fashion is Art,” going hand-in-hand with the “Costume Art” theme.
Organizers say the show will highlight the connection between clothing and the body and the “complex interplay between artistic representations of the body and fashion as an embodied art form.”
What time does the red carpet start?
The event is held on the first Monday in May every year at the museum in New York City.
Arrivals officially start at 5:30 p.m., but many stars are known to show up late.
Singer Rihanna showed up around 10 p.m. last year, just after rapper and Bronx native Cardi B and actress Halle Berry. The first to arrive last year was singer-songwriter and actress Teyana Taylor a little after 5 p.m.
Members of the press check in hours before to line up along The Met’s iconic steps and watch the stars arrive.
What does the theme “Costume Art” mean?
The annual gala is based on the spring exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute.
“Costume Art” strives to make the connection between bodies and the clothes they wear, according to the exhibit’s curator.
“Costume Art will present a dynamic and scholarly conversation between garments from The Costume Institute and an array of artworks from across The Met’s collection, elevating universal and timeless themes while bringing forward new ideas and ways of seeing,” said Max Hollein, CEO of The Met.
Jack Brooksbank, turning 40 appears to have been a far more low-key affair this year, shaped by family priorities, changing circumstances, and a fresh chapter in life.
The businessman, who celebrated his birthday on Sunday, marked the occasion quietly alongside wife Princess Eugenie and their two young sons, August and Ernest.
The intimate tone of the day comes just as Buckingham Palace confirmed the couple are expecting their third child.
Eugenie offered a rare personal glimpse into their celebrations, sharing relaxed beachside photographs and a heartfelt tribute: “Happy 40th my love. Here’s to another 16. xx”
In recent years, Brooksbank’s life has undergone a notable transformation.
The couple’s move to Portugal in 2022 marked a turning point, offering a quieter environment away from the intensity of royal life in the UK.
There, Brooksbank has been involved with the Discovery Land Company, contributing to high-end property developments, while also continuing his own drinks venture launched in 2016.
This more private chapter comes amid ongoing public scrutiny surrounding the wider York family, which insiders suggest has naturally encouraged a more reserved approach to public life.
As a result, celebrations that might once have been high-profile have instead taken on a more reflective and intimate tone.
