Jen Aniston: New York Was Like Living "In a Fish Bowl!"

Jennifer Aniston rates her current happiness as a “10 plus” following her move back to LA with her beau of 10 months, Justin Theroux, 40, after a seven month stint living together in New York City.

“We tried New York,” the 43-year-old actress said in a radio interview with The Kyle and Jackie O Show on March 2 but “it felt like I was [living] in a fish bowl and I felt mortified for my neighbours.”

“It was a little rough with the paparazzi, it didn’t feel like the New York I grew up in and knew,” Aniston shared about the couple's recent decision to leave the Big Apple behind for life in L.A.

And while they haven't ditched their downtown NYC digs forever ("Justin still has an apartment there," Aniston explained,) the happy couple have since shacked up in the $22 million dollar Bel-Air mansion they purchased together in late January. The four bedroom, 790 square meter pad boasts floor-to-ceiling glass windows, ocean views, a pool and a vineyard.

And while Aniston’s admission of heady happiness clearly has a lot to do with her flourishing relationship with her Wanderlust co-star Theroux, the actress revealed her zen approach to life aids her glow.

“You have a more relaxed sense of the world and life and you realise there’s nothing to be taken too seriously besides doing your work and being a really good person.”
