Justin Theroux Gets Flirty With 29-year-Old Actress, Moving On From Ex Jennifer Aniston

Justin Theroux seems to have finally gotten over his ex-wife, Jennifer Aniston, six years after they called it quits on their marriage.

Despite their separation, the Hollywood stars, who were married from 2015 to 2017 after being an item for about four years, remain very close friends.

The end of their romance was heartbreaking for Theroux, but he is now moving on as he was recently spotted getting cozy with a fellow entertainer during a date night in New York City.

On the night of Monday, August 28, the 52-year-old actor and filmmaker was seen sharing intimate moments with actress Nicole Brydon Bloom during a double date at Altro Paradiso in NYC. Page Six reported that they could not keep their hands off each other at the celebrity joint based on the photos obtained by the outlet.

Theroux and Bloom, dressed casually for the outing, were captured flirting and sharing jokes at the dinner table. They later exited the hotspot together before heading to the "Strangers with Candy" star's Lower East Side establishment, Ray's Bar.

Theroux kept his arms around Bloom's waist as they made their way to his bar, where they had a blast, as seen in the images. They also departed from the pub together. Throughout the night, the duo showed some intense PDA, hinting at a possible love affair, marking the first time the "Tropic Thunder" actor would indicate a romantic connection since divorcing Aniston.

Bloom is 23 years younger than Theroux and has been cast in a few famous productions like "Law & Order: SVU," "The Affair," and the second season of the HBO drama, "The Gilded Age" according to her IMDb profile.  She turned 29 earlier in March, as seen on her Instagram feed, where she celebrated with a heartwarming post.

No information about how the "Maniac" actor knows Bloom has come to light, but they were both photographed gracing the SAG-AFTRA strike in NYC earlier this month. Their recent outing may cause fans to ponder Theroux's chummy relationship with his ex-wife, whom he recently comforted amid mourning the loss of her father, John.

The late actor passed on November 11, 2022, which was a huge blow to the "Murder Mystery" actress as she had never gotten over it since then.   Thankfully, she had the help of her "tight-knit support system," which included some of her father's Hollywood co-stars, friends, and Theroux.

Sources revealed that the "American Psycho" star had been a "close source of comfort" to Aniston whom he often consoled by calling her nearly every day. The ex-couple's connection may not be surprising to their fans, especially since they have displayed their friendship multiple times, even celebrating each other's birthdays.

In November 2022, the 54-year-old actress spoke about their blossoming friendship in an interview, divulging that Theorux had visited her home, possibly to see how she was faring following her father's demise.

She also announced the old-timer's death in the same month using a heart-wrenching post on Instagram. It featured throwback photos of their memorable time together over the years alongside a touching note expressing her forever love for him. 

Two years ago and four years after Theroux and Aniston's separation, the "Rock of Ages" actor addressed their friendly connection in an interview. As fans are aware, the duo met while filming "Wanderlust" in 2011 and began dating later that year following Theroux's split from his girlfriend of 14 years, Heidi Bivens.  

They got engaged a year later, three years before their marriage in August 2015. Their short union sadly ended mutually in 2018, but their friendship was still intact as Theorux told Esquire that they remained in contact via phone calls, texts, and FaceTime. 

He also clarified that the exes "still bring each other joy and friendship," adding that he cherished their bond and would be devastated if they ever cut ties.

Not long after their divorce, rumors circulated regarding the reason behind their split, with several people assuming the twosome had marital issues.

However, the "Dedication" star debunked the chatter, saying, "People create narratives that make themselves feel better or simplify things for them."
