Jennifer Aniston Says It’s Always Been ‘A Little Bit Difficult’ for Her to Be in a Relationship
Jennifer Aniston became America’s sweetheart in the ’90s when she landed the role of Rachel Green on Friends. Since then, she’s had an illustrious TV and movie career. While her professional career has been smooth, her personal life has been a bit rockier. The actor has been married and divorced twice and had several other high-profile romances. Jennifer Aniston is currently single and seems to like it that way. In fact, she revealed that being single is easier for her, as she always found being in a relationship a little difficult.
Jennifer Aniston said she always found relationships a bit difficult
Jennifer Aniston has not debuted a new relationship since her second divorce. The single life appears to agree with her. Despite walking down the aisle twice, Aniston once revealed that being in a relationship didn’t come naturally to her.
During an interview with The Wall Street Journal, Jennifer Aniston opened up about her single status and why relationships have always been a bit difficult for her. She noted that her parents’ dynamic didn’t make her want to find love and settle into marriage. She said they were often “unkind” to each other and that she never had a good example of what a loving romantic partnership looked like. Aniston told the publication that her relationship skills have always been a bit lacking despite her ability to nail every other job.
Aniston’s parents, John Aniston and Nancy Dow, married in 1965. They divorced in 1980 when Aniston was nine. Her father later remarried. Aniston and her mother’s rocky and distant relationship has been much discussed. Nancy Dow died in 2016 at 79. John Aniston died in 2022 at 89.
Does Jennifer Aniston want to be single forever?
Jennifer might be OK being single right now, but she’s not against finding love again. The Morning Show actor sat down with Allure for a chat last year and admitted there are days when it would be nice to be in a relationship. She told the publication she’d like to be able to come home and fall into someone’s arms or have a bit of support.
Still, she probably won’t don a white dress and walk down the aisle again. When asked if she’d consider tying the knot for a third time, she was noncommittal. Aniston eventually said she wasn’t ruling anything out but admitted she wasn’t interested in being married again. This doesn’t mean she wants to live her life solo forever, though.
Who has the starlet dated?
Despite Jennifer Aniston’s feelings about being in a relationship and her ability to feel content single, she’s had more than a few high-profile romances. Her most serious relationships were her two marriages. She was married to Brad Pitt from 2000 until 2005. In 2015, she and Justin Theroux tied the knot. The couple divorced just three years later.
Before Pitt and Theroux, there was Daniel McDonald. In an interview, Aniston discussed McDonald, revealing that he could have been “the one” but that she was 25 and “stupid.” McDonald died in 2007 from brain cancer. He was just 46. Aniston also dated Tate Donovan and Counting Crows frontman Adam Duritz. Before linking up with Theroux, Aniston was romanced by Vince Vaughn and John Mayer.
