Bethenny Frankel is kissing and telling, with respect. The Real Housewives of New York City alum recently revealed that she dated the hypnotist that Jennifer Aniston has been making headlines with.
The world has always been interested in Aniston’s love life, and it seems like she’s found a new suitor named Jim Curtis. They first sparked rumors when they were spotted on a yacht in Spain over Fourth of July weekend with Jason Bateman and Amanda Anka. A source later told PEOPLE the two are “casually dating and having fun.”
It turns out that Curtis is no stranger to dating celebrities. Frankel revealed that she dated him “maybe 10 years ago” on her Just B with Bethenny Frankel podcast. Thankfully, she had nothing but nice things to say about him, calling him a “handsome, nice man” who “seems kind.”

Looking back, Frankel said Curtis was “earlier in his journey” when they dated, but even then, she noticed qualities that matched well with Aniston. “With the wellness aspect, there was an earthiness to it, and it does vibe with Jen Aniston,” she said.
The 54-year-old said she was “happy” for Aniston, who she believes wants to “find love.” “I do believe it’s been difficult, as I understand as well as anybody can, and I do believe she’s sort of got that earthy, mellow side to her,” she continued.
Frankel even said she was “betting” on the relationship. “I think this is good. I like it, and I’m happy for her and for him, who, like I said, I thought was a lovely man.”
Curtis and Aniston were introduced as mutual friends and started out as friends, according to PEOPLE. “Jen had read his book and was familiar with his work. She’s really into self-help and wellness,” a source told the outlet.
The insider noted that “She’s been happy on her own, but she’s also open to sharing her life with someone. As long as it feels right.”
