Jennifer Aniston Reportedly Made This Real Estate Move to Spice up Her Dating Life

Jennifer Aniston has always been interested in real estate. Going back to her days with Brad Pitt, the 55-year-old actress loved buying and renovating homes that needed a little extra TLC. Now, she might use a new piece of property to spice up her love life.

During the pandemic, The Morning Show star bought a $14.8 million home from Oprah Winfrey in Montecito (yes, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s neighborhood) to have a fun weekend getaway residence when she’s not on set. There is reportedly another motive with this real estate move, according to Life & Style. “She’s hopeful that a fresh start might make it easier for her to find love again,” a source claimed. “It’s been so long since she’s had a relationship — she really misses that companionship.”

This news comes on the heels of ex Justin Theroux’s engagement to Nicole Brydon Bloom which was revealed on the red carpet of the Venice Film Festival. The 53-year-old actor still gets asked about his ex-wife, but he’s always guarded about what he says. “She is still very dear to me so of course, yeah, I feel protective,” he told The Times. So perhaps a new house will bring fresh vibes to Aniston’s love life.

The Life & Style source noted that she’s looking for a man “she can trust, someone she can laugh and feel safe with,” and someone who loves the laidback beach community. “She’s very selective about who she’ll let into her heart again,” an Aniston pal shared with OK! Magazine in 2023. “She also knows that she doesn’t need a man by her side to be happy. That’s huge growth for her. She may have lonely nights at times, but she’s at peace with being alone. She’s confident love will come again.”

Maybe the right person is waiting for her in Montecito where A-list stars like Rob Lowe, Oprah Winfrey, Katy Perry, and Ellen DeGeneres make their home full-time. Besides the Hollywood faces, the area north of Los Angeles also has its fair share of tech gurus, studio executives, and financial wizards. So perhaps her next date will be with someone outside the entertainment industry which might be a refreshing change for Aniston.
