Meghan Markle is eager to rebuild her Hollywood connections, and sources say she has set her sights on forming a friendship with Jennifer Aniston. However, insiders claim the Friends star has no interest in getting close to the former royal.
Markle Sees Aniston as Her Ticket Back Into Hollywood
Sources close to Markle, 43, say she was thrilled to learn that Aniston, 56, is moving to Montecito, just minutes from her and Prince Harry’s home. With her Hollywood status fading, Markle reportedly sees Aniston as the perfect ally to help her regain influence among A-list celebrities.
“Meghan has been eager to connect with Jen for years, but it never quite happened,” an insider revealed. “She believes Jen has incredible influence and could introduce her to major Hollywood power players.”
Markle has allegedly been trying to secure an introduction through mutual friends, hoping to earn a place in Aniston’s inner circle. Now that the actress is relocating closer, sources say Markle sees a fresh opportunity to establish the friendship she has long wanted.
Jennifer Aniston Keeps Her Distance
Despite Markle’s attempts, sources claim Aniston has remained polite but distant. The actress, known for her close-knit group of longtime friends, reportedly prefers to keep her social circle small and has not shown interest in a friendship with Markle.
“Jen is incredibly busy and keeps her friendships tight-knit,” a source shared. “She’s not the type to jump into new social circles, especially ones that come with media scrutiny.”
The timing couldn’t be more crucial for Markle, as her and Prince Harry’s Hollywood ventures have been struggling. The couple’s $20 million Spotify deal fell apart, with executives reportedly calling them “grifters.” Their $100 million Netflix deal is also in jeopardy, with critics slamming their recent projects.
Aniston, on the other hand, continues to enjoy a strong Hollywood presence, with hit projects like The Morning Showand a dedicated fan base. Insiders claim Markle hopes some of Aniston’s popularity and success will rub off on her.
“Meghan is determined to make this friendship happen,” the insider added. “She sees Jen as the key to reviving her Hollywood career, and she’s willing to put in the effort to make it work.”
