Jennifer Aniston and Jim Curtis Pack on the PDA in Never-Before-Seen Photos Shared for Her 57th Birthday

Jennifer Aniston and her boyfriend Jim Curtis went Instagram official on his 50th birthday last November, so there was no question that Curtis would return the favor when Aniston rang in her 57th birthday on February 11.

And that he did in the form of a sweet Instagram tribute shared on Wednesday, writing, “HBD MY ❤️” alongside two new photos of them. In one, the two laugh on a boat, and in another—a black-and-white shot—the two share a romantic kiss.

Curtis spoke about his relationship with Aniston recently on Today, telling host Craig Melvin on January 26 that they had been together for about a year and had been introduced by friends. “We found out that we had mutual friends, and we started to just chat,” Curtis said.

“It took a long time,” he added. “We chatted for a long time, and we became close.”

No big production. Just perfect timing.

And timing, as always, made all the difference.
