Jennifer Aniston was glowing in a touching tribute shared by her partner, Jim Curtis, in celebration of her 57th birthday on Wednesday. The hypnotherapist took to social media to share sweet snaps of the Friends star, including a shot of the pair kissing while out at a glamorous event.
In the photo, Jennifer sported a black dress and wore her hair down as she smooched Jim, who wore a black collared shirt for the event. In the second photo, the couple appeared smitten with each other as they laughed on the deck of a boat.
The actress wore a black maxi dress as she doubled over in laughter, and Jim’s hand rested on her shoulder as he sported a white collared shirt and loose green pants.

“Aww Jen deserves ALL the best! Happy birthday to our queen,” said a third, while another chimed in: “Seriously the perfect couple.” Jennifer and Jim announced their relationship to the world in November, when the blonde beauty shared a photo taken at his 50th birthday bash of her hugging him from behind.
“Happy birthday my love. Cherished,” she wrote in the Instagram caption. Jim revealed in an interview with the Today show in January that the duo had been dating for almost a year by then.

Jennifer sang her partner’s praises to Elle in November and explained his career path to the publication. “Hypnotism is one of the many things that he does. He’s quite extraordinary and helps many, many people,” she said.
“He’s very special, very normal, and very kind, and wants to help people heal, move through their trauma and stagnation into clarity. It’s a beautiful thing to commit your life to.” Jennifer was married twice before: to Brad Pitt from 2000 to 2005, and to Justin Theroux from 2015 to 2018.

© Instagram“Sure, there were bumps, and not every moment felt fantastic, obviously, but at the end of it, this is our one life, and I would not stay in a situation out of fear. Fear of being alone. Fear of not being able to survive. To stay in a marriage based on fear feels like you’re doing your one life a disservice.”
Justin and Jennifer stayed in contact following their split, as the Mulholland Drive star told Esquire in 2021. “I would say we’ve remained friends,” he shared. “We don’t talk every day, but we call each other. We FaceTime. We text.”
