Jennifer Aniston Seen on NYC Dinner Date with Jim Curtis

Jennifer Aniston and companion Jim Curtis were seen on a low-key dinner date in New York City in early September, a public outing that came days after former Real Housewives star Bethenny Frankel said on her podcast that she had dated Curtis about a decade ago. The pair have been linked since July, when they were photographed vacationing together in Mallorca, and their relationship has drawn renewed attention as friends and former partners speak publicly.

Frankel, who said on her Just B With Bethenny podcast that she and Curtis dated "maybe 10 years ago," called him "a nice guy" and voiced support for Aniston's new relationship. "He's a handsome, nice man, and he seems kind. I think this is good," she said, adding she did not want to disclose more out of respect. Frankel also suggested differences in lifestyle and Curtis's involvement in wellness work contributed to why their romance did not continue. "I never participated in it. I don't love all areas of it, and I don't always take all areas of it seriously," she said.

Another woman who has been linked to Curtis, Alyssa Pettinato, gave a more muted account. On her podcast she said she and Curtis went on a few dates years ago...
