Jennifer Aniston has been single since her split from Justin Theroux in 2018 but she’s allegedly open to dating again very soon.

According to Closer UK, Aniston has been telling friends that she wants to get to know Harry Styles. And it seems the feeling is mutual because the former One Direction singer has always had a crush on the Friends alum.

“Jen had been joking with pals about who she could get together with next and there has been talking about Harry. He ticks all the boxes – he’s successful, intellectual, edgy, and cooler than almost anyone else out there. He’s totally in her league,” the source said.

The source added that Styles has always been interested in dating much older women. In fact, he just got out of a two-year relationship with Olivia Wilde.

“Plus, of course, he’s clearly into older women and has admitted he had a crush on her growing up, so she’s confident this has a lot more chance of working out than some of her other recent matches. The way Jen sees it, she’s crazy not to have some fun. Harry’s got a great sense of humor and is totally chilled, they’re a great match on paper. After the trousers incident, she got in touch and it’s been quite flirty,” the source said.

Styles reportedly ripped his pants during a live performance that Aniston attended. And fans couldn’t help but speculate that he did it on purpose to capture that actress’s attention.

However, one should take the tabloid’s claims with a grain of salt. It’s not true that Styles ripped his pants on purpose just to get Aniston’s attention. If the tabloid’s claims are true that Aniston is also interested in Styles then the singer wouldn’t have to do this in the first place.

But the tabloid’s claims about Aniston and Styles potentially being interested in each other are not true. And not because they are both single then it automatically means that they could be together.

All these claims were just made up by the tabloid for clickbait purposes. But in reality, Aniston and Styles do not have that much connection contrary to what the tabloid is trying to portray.

In fact, there’s also no indication that the two are friends but they may be acquaintances since they follow each other on social media.
