Why she’s happy for work to be her life right now

Moving On Jen's Open To Love And New Friends

She’s been single for more than a year now, yet Jennifer Aniston’s not looking for love – she’s far too busy. But should the man of her dreams turn up on the twice-divorced star’s doorstep, she’s not going to tell him to get lost.

She says if and when romance comes knocking, “It’s going to be welcomed. I’m not like, ‘No, I’m done with that. That’s never going to happen again.’”

She knows exactly the type of guy she’ll happily let into her life and what attributes he’ll hopefully have.

“A sense of humour. Strong sense of self-worth, confidence, kindness, generosity. Good people surrounding them.”

Jennifer (50) says while others may think she’s unlucky in love after her marriages to Brad Pitt (55) and Justin Theroux (47) ended in divorce, she doesn’t see it that way.

“I don’t feel a void. My marriages have been successful in my personal opinion. And when they came to an end, it was a choice that was made because we chose to be happy, and sometimes happiness doesn’t exist within that arrangement anymore.”

What’s making her happy at the moment is work – she’s been flat out since divorcing from Justin in February last year. First, she teamed up with her Just Go With It co-star Adam Sandler (52) to make the Netflix movie Murder Mystery, which has broken records after being watched by 30 million accounts on the streaming platform in its first three days.
