Four’s a crowd for Jennifer Aniston’s beau Justin Theroux – insiders say he’s furious that Jen moved her dad and his wife into their Bel-Air home… without even asking him! In early November, the “Friends” beauty offered to let her father, 80-year-old soap veteran John Aniston, and his second wife, Sherry, 67, take up residence in the recently renovated $21 million mansion she shares with Justin until they can find a new place.
“Justin is steaming mad over Jen’s offer,” disclosed an insider. “He told her that having her dad ambling around the house is a huge ‘buzz-kill.’
He worries it’s going to destroy their love life before they even tie the knot. Justin tried to plead his case, but Jen told him she’s made up her mind. She said he has no right to even question her because of how much time he’s been away.”
While Justin has promised Jen that they’ll spend the holidays together, in recent months he’s been living primarily in New York City for work. He insists it’s because his career is booming, but insiders say it may be a stall tactic.
The two got engaged over a year ago, but there are still no definite wedding plans in the works. Friends are concerned that the couple may not be ready to commit – and that the 44-year-old actress is turning to her dad for support. But Jen’s decision to open their door to her father and his wife has strained her already troubled relationship with Justin, according to the source.
“Justin worries that John will meddle in his and Jen’s personal affairs,” the insider explained. “John is already pestering him about when he’s going to marry Jen and give him a grandchild.”
Although Jen’s representative denies that Jen’s father and stepmom are moving and that it’s causing friction in Jen’s already tense relationship with Justin, our sources say that John and Sherry recently put their five-bedroom Bell Canyon, Calif., home up for sale for nearly $1.7 million.
The upkeep on the property proved to be too much for the aging couple, and they were looking at buying a condo in the Westwood section of Los Angeles but were having trouble finding something suitable when Jen intervened, a source says.
While the actress has had a stormy relationship with her 77-year-old mother, Nancy Dow, she’s close to her father and didn’t want him to have to rush to find a place to live.
“Jen cherishes her relationship with John,” added the insider. “She told him that he and Sherry can stay with her for as long as they like.”
