On Christmas Eve, December 24, 2025, Jennifer Aniston gave fans a warm, fun glimpse into her holiday preparations. Instead of glamorous parties, the 56-year-old actress shared simple, humorous moments via Instagram Stories, making fans feel closer to the iconic âRachel Green.â
Jennifer posted photos of her Christmas setup at her Hollywood home. The highlight was her elaborately decorated Christmas tree with twinkling white lights. But the standout was a close-up of a special ornament: a jar of pimento-stuffed green olives. She captioned it wittily: âIf you know me, you know,â with olive and heart emojis. This nods to her well-known love for olivesâsheâs previously shared carrying them while traveling for perfect martinis.
She also shared an adorable photo of her schnauzer Clyde wearing a bright red Santa hat, captioning: âClydeâs ready for Christmas.â Her dogs are always family to Jen, adding extra coziness this year.
The day before, on âChristmas Eve Eveâ (Dec. 23), she kicked off the festivities with a classic Friends clip: Phoebe (Lisa Kudrow) wishing âHappy Christmas Eve Eve.â Jen captioned: âHappy Christmas Eve Eve everyone! Wishing all a safe and joyful holiday filled with loads of love and laughter!â â sending warm wishes and honoring late co-star Matthew Perry.
This Christmas is extra special as itâs her first with new boyfriend Jim Curtis, a hypnotherapist and wellness coach. While Christmas Eve focused on personal moments, sheâs gearing up for a cozy gathering at her $25 million LA mansion on Christmas Day, with close friends like Courteney Cox, Jason Bateman and families, plus Jimâs teenage son Aidan. Insiders say Jen is âover the moonâ â no longer feeling lonely during the holidays after many years.
From the unique olive tree ornament to Clyde in his Santa hat, Jennifer Anistonâs Christmas Eve was a perfect mix of humor, warmth, and personality. Fans are touched seeing her so happy at 56. Wishing Jen a wonderful holiday season with loved ones!
