Jennifer Aniston and Pedro Pascal romance rumours heat up as she issues sweet statement
Jennifer Aniston issued a gushing five-word comment about Pedro Pascal amid their ongoing romance rumours as she added more fuel to the fire. The Friends star, 56, was spotted on a cosy three-hour dinner with Gladiator 2 hunk Pedro, 50, last month.
They were seen in deep conversation with each other as they left the Tower Bar at the Sunset Tower Hotel in West Hollywood. Jennifer and Pedro arrived separately after 8pm and they left solo around 11:30pm.
Their dinner date came after the pair joked around together on the Critics Choice Awards red carpet. Pedro teased he might be joining Jennifer’s hit TV series, The Morning Show.
The actor probed if the part would involve “anything romantic with anybody” as Jennifer teased: “All of us.” “I sleep with everyone on the show,” Pedro joked. “I’m in. All right, I’ll be waiting to hear from my agents.”
Amid the speculation, Jennifer gave a sweet shoutout to Pedro on his milestone 50th birthday. This week, the actress took to her Instagram Stories to share a New Yorker comic referencing Pedro.
She clearly wanted to show off her connection to the Narcos star as she issued a gushing remark next to the post. The comic showed a therapist telling their patient: “It’s not strange at all – lately, a lot of people are reporting that their faith in humanity is riding entirely on whether or not Pedro Pascal is as nice as he seems.”
Jennifer offered her nugget of information as she wrote: “Can confirm – as nice as he seems.” She added: “Happy birthday PP!,” along with two birthday emojis.
It appears Pedro was able to lift Jennifer’s spirits on their dinner date last month after she was reportedly left “blindsided” by her second ex husband Justin Theroux, 53, tying the knot. He recently married his 30-year-old girlfriend Nicole Brydon Bloom in a secret wedding.
Jennifer and Justin began dating in 2011, after they both worked on the film comedy Wanderlust. They were engaged in August 2012, and married in a surprise ceremony at their LA home in August 2015 but by 2018 it was all over.
Jen, who was once married to Brad Pitt, spoke out about the end of the relationship to InStyle magazine seven years ago. “It’s pretty crazy. ‘The misconceptions are ‘Jen can’t keep a man,’ and ‘Jen refuses to have a baby because she’s selfish and committed to her career.’ Or that I’m sad and heartbroken…
“First, with all due respect, I’m not heartbroken. And second, those are reckless assumptions. No one knows what’s going on behind closed doors.”
Jennifer is said to have been surprised by his new marriage and sent a message to Justin after the news broke. She hasn’t been in any public romances since their divorce eight years ago.
