John Mayer and Jennifer Aniston have reportedly called it quits. That's the rumor I'm hearing. A source says the pair's on-again, off-again relationship may have ended sometime within the last week, when Aniston returned from her overseas Marley & Me junket.
John made a tasty piece of arm candy for the award season -– especially facing Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie on Oscar night. And he was a great date for Jen on red carpets for both her films -– "Marley & Me” and “He’s Just Not That Into You.”
After Jennifer returned from eating dog biscuits with Owen Wilson to promote “Marley” in Europe, Hollywood's hottest couple were inexplicably kaput, according to People. Just like that? Wow.
"They had some disagreements and decided to not continue to see each other," says a People source. "Jen is moving on with her life like she always does. She seems happy."
A second source says it was Mayer who broke up with Aniston after she returned from Europe.
Oh, no. Here we go again with that “I ended a relationship to be alone” and “I don’t want to waste someone’s time if something’s not right” business.
Don't go talking to TMZ, dude! She will cut you!
In a recent interview with British paper Mail on Sunday, Aniston said she didn't believe any relationship meant to last a lifetime. "Whoever said that every relationship has to last forever? That's hoping for too much."
"He broke up with her when she got back from her European tour," the source said.
Aniston's rep did not immediately comment. Mayer's rep declined to comment on the singer's personal life.
But what are their friends saying?One pal warns that we shouldn't be quick to assume the two are through for good. As we know, this wouldn't be the first time they've gone their separate ways.
Aniston recently opened up about love and romance to the U.K. magazine You. "Who ever said that every relationship has to last forever? That's hoping too much," said Aniston, who turned 40 exactly a month ago. "I think every relationship is a world unto itself."
As for finding the perfect partner, she said, "I don't have one and I don't think it exists."
Aniston and Mayer went public for the first time at the Oscars at the end of last month. Backstage at the Kodak Theatre, Aniston told Gayle King, who was interviewing them for her pal Oprah's show, that she was "very happy." Later in the night, they strolled arm in arm into the Vanity Fair postshow party at the Sunset Tower Hotel.
Most recently, Aniston was spotted on Monday at the same hotel grabbing a bite to eat at the Terrace restaurant. She'll be jetting to New York City in the spring to shoot The Baster, in which she stars opposite Jason Bateman as an unmarried 40-year-old who decides to have a baby with her best friend.
But an awards season and a couple of red carpets, that's like totally doable.Mayer, meanwhile, has been in the studio working on a new album.
