Exciting news for Jennifer Aniston

Jennifer Aniston is back on the dating scene!

A source has told Entertainment Tonight that the 49-year-old former Friends star is casually dating five months after announcing her split from husband Justin Theroux.

The source says Aniston "really relied on her friends to get her through the tough times," and "during that time, she was able to heal and be comfortable with dating again."

"Jennifer has never felt she needed a man, but she loves love," the source added. "Jennifer is casually dating, but right now nothing serious. She is just having fun, seeing where things go."

Theroux, meanwhile, has spent time travelling the world and is taking things slow when it comes to dating.

“Justin is not in a relationship,” the source said. “He’s super social and loves meeting new people and collaborating on ideas with friends. These days he’s been spending time with friends and family -- he’s super close with his brother."
