The news comes a year after the outlet confirmed their engagement. Theroux reportedly popped the big question in Italy, where the couple visited to support the actor's 2024 movie "Beetlejuice Beetlejuice." Although they frequently kept their romance low-key, Bloom flaunted the ring for all to see.

After raising eyebrows in February, Theroux and Bloom kicked things up a notch in August 2023 with a public display of emotion. The Blast covered the story, reporting that the pair were seen on a double date with another couple, presumably their pals, at Altro Paradiso in NYC.

The paparazzi caught Theroux and Bloom unable to keep their hands to themselves, and they even shared a kiss, confirming they were more than just friends. After the dinner date, the duo kept the PDA going by wrapping their arms around each other as they left.

They reportedly visited Ray's Bar, the Lower East Side establishment Theroux co-owns, to end their night. It was unclear when their relationship turned romantic, but their outing came months after the filmmaker declared he no longer wanted a public relationship.

In an interview with Esquire, published in May 2023, Theroux reflected on his highly publicized romance with Aniston and how he no longer wanted the same publicity in his relationships. He stressed that he wanted his love life to remain behind closed doors.

"Having been in a public relationship, it's much more fun not being in a public relationship," Theroux explained. He noted that after Aniston, he realized people wanted something to gossip about and chose the "no comment" approach to secure his peace.

"And I'm not trying to be evasive, but I talk to Jen—I don't talk about Jen," Theroux stressed. He added that he preferred not to give the public something to talk about, regarding his ex-wife and love life, because "saying anything, even if it was something loving, it would just turn into a thing."

Although Theroux's chapter with Aniston had ended, finding another lover did not stop him from having an amicable relationship with his ex-wife. The Blast shared that a source claimed the entertainer was part of the supporters the actress had depended on following her father's death.

The source described Theroux as a "close source of comfort" for Aniston, allegedly calling her daily to check in on her well-being amid her grief. The claims might not shock fans as the former couple maintained an amicable bond after their separation.

They even celebrated each other's milestones, including birthdays, and flaunted their friendship on multiple occasions. In November 2022, Aniston revealed that Theroux had visited her home, presumably to check in on her, as it was the same month her father died.
