Justin Theroux Has One Dating Rule After Splitting From Jennifer Aniston

Posted by Almeda Bohannan on Saturday, June 15, 2024

Justin Theroux and Jennifer Aniston ended their marriage in 2018, and they have both moved on with their lives in the intervening years. However, Theroux hasn't forgotten what it was like to be in a relationship that was reported on and speculated about on a regular basis. Since splitting from Aniston, the actor has made a new rule for himself after deciding that he no longer wants to date anyone in the public eye so that his relationships can stay as private as possible.

During a May 2023 interview with Esquire, Theroux opened up about wanting to keep his romances private from now on. "There's something to, once you're out of that, where I want all of my relationships to exist within the four walls of whatever room we're in," he said, admitting that he tries not to let online comments about himself hit home. Likewise, "I'm not trying to be evasive, but I talk to Jen — I don't talk about Jen. People will always want to gossip and say things, but you have to find that balance."

Theroux continued, "And having been in a public relationship, it's much more fun not being in a public relationship." Although the "Wanderlust" star may be set on no longer dating another celebrity or high-profile person, that doesn't mean he doesn't cherish the time he and Aniston spent together. In fact, the couple are still close friends despite their divorce.
