Jennifer Aniston is proving that age is just a number — and she’s doing it with style, strength, and a whole lot of sweat. The Friends icon, now 55, gave fans a rare peek into her rigorous fitness regimen this weekend, reminding the world why she's still one of Hollywood’s most admired figures — both for her timeless beauty and relentless discipline.
In a video shared Saturday from her private gym, Aniston was seen powering through a series of challenging exercises that left little doubt about her commitment to wellness. Clad in a sleek black sports bra and matching leggings, the Emmy-winning actress showcased her sculpted midsection and toned limbs while performing side planks, squats, and leg lifts under the watchful eye of her trainer.
Her enviable abs took center stage — a testament not only to her genetics but to the serious work she's putting in behind the scenes. The workout was far from staged glamour; it was sweaty, intense, and very real.
But it wasn’t all grit and grind. In a heartwarming moment, Aniston's beloved dogs made a brief appearance in the background, with the star affectionately calling them her “emotional support cheerleaders.”
The gym session comes at a time when Aniston is also navigating the reemergence of a familiar figure from her past: ex-husband Justin Theroux. The Leftovers actor recently made headlines after announcing his engagement — seven years after his split from Aniston — but he hasn’t stopped speaking fondly of his former partner.
In a candid new interview with The Times, Theroux opened up about the enduring respect he holds for Aniston, sharing that he still feels “protective” of her despite the years and distance. “She is still very dear to me,” he said, commending her for standing up to what he called “ridiculous” and “hurtful” comments made by Ohio Senator J.D. Vance.
Vance, a rising political figure and likely vice-presidential candidate on Donald Trump’s 2024 ticket, sparked backlash with a resurfaced 2021 remark labeling unmarried, childless women as “cat ladies” doomed to unhappiness. Aniston, who has spoken openly in the past about the stigma surrounding women without children, didn’t hold back in her public rebuttal.
“I truly can't believe this is coming from a potential VP of the United States,” she wrote on social media. “All I can say is… Mr. Vance, I pray that your daughter is fortunate enough to bear children of her own one day. I hope she will not need to turn to IVF as a second option. Because you are trying to take that away from her, too.”
The statement drew applause across social media, with many praising Aniston for her unapologetic stance on women’s rights and reproductive freedom — especially in an industry and era where silence is often the easier route.
Theroux’s praise of her wasn’t just lip service. He noted that her response exemplified why he still feels connected to her, even after their relationship ended. “She batted back criticism, as well she should,” he said.
The couple’s relationship began in 2011 and culminated in a secret, star-studded wedding at Aniston’s $21 million Bel-Air estate in 2015. Just two years later, they quietly separated, announcing their split in early 2018 with a joint statement that emphasized the absence of any animosity.
“In an effort to reduce any further speculation, we have decided to announce our separation,” the statement read at the time. “This decision was mutual and lovingly made at the end of last year. We are two best friends who have decided to part ways as a couple but
