Jennifer Aniston is reportedly not enjoying a secret romance with Pedro Pascal.
The 55-year-old “Friends” actress and the “Gladiator II” actor, 49, sparked dating rumours after they were seen leaving the Sunset Tower Hotel’s Tower Bar in West Hollywood at the weekend, following a three-hour meal with a group of friends.
But an industry insider has now dismissed the rumours, saying in a statement to “Page Six”: “There is no romance going on between Jennifer Aniston and Pedro Pascal.
“They respect each other as artists but it’s strictly platonic and they’re not dating.”
Aniston and Pascal were photographed after their dinner conversing near the valet area before going their separate ways.
The actress was snapped wearing a leather vest over a white T-shirt, paired with cuffed black trousers and boots.
Pascal opted for a leather jacket, jeans and loafers.
The images of their night out quickly went viral, with social media users speculating about a potential romance between the pair.
Fans also dug out a moment from the Critics Choice Awards red carpet in January 2024, where Pascal, best known for his roles in “Narcos” and “The Last of Us”, reached for Aniston’s hand.
In response, she clasped it between both of hers and mouthed “Oh, my God” at the camera – fuelling further speculation online they were an item.
Aniston has been married twice – first to Brad Pitt, 61, in 2000, before their high-profile split in January 2005.
She later married Justin Theroux, 53, in 2015, though they announced their separation in February 2018.
Aniston, known for keeping his personal life private, has previously been linked to actresses Maria Dizzia, Lena Headey and Robin Tunney.
Representatives for the pair have not officially commented on the speculation they are secretly an item.
Aniston has also been linked to Vince Vaughn, 54, and John Mayer, 47 but remains private about her dating life.
