Jennifer Aniston: Proposal Was ‘a Very Covert Operation’

Jennifer Aniston’s engagement ring might have caused quite a stir among fans, but no one is more enamored with the shiny new sparkler than the bride-to-be.

“I was impressed,” she tells PEOPLE of fiancé Justin Theroux‘s final choice. “I had no idea, and I had no idea what I wanted. He just knows what I like.”

Theroux “worked with the girls that I have worked with for years and years and years, so he kind of was picking the specialists’ brains,” Aniston shares. “He kept it within a very small circle of people. It was one of the sneakiest jobs I’ve ever seen, actually.”

And that left the actress, who is the new face and co-owner of Living Proof hair products, doubly impressed.

“It’s hard to pull one over on me,” she says, “where I’m not like, ‘Hmm, you’re acting really strange.’ It was … a very covert operation.” For more of our exclusive interview with Aniston, pick up the latest issue of PEOPLE, on newsstands now.

Amazing couple.

Happy for them..Don’t really care for her ring though..

Brad wanted children, Jennifer did not. She is too worried about eating salads everyday. Stated, if she had children she would adopt. She may be selfish. Brad is a great and accepting father.

Here we ho again how dare her ovary did not produce question. I guess this man loves her no matter she able to produce or not.

I mean.Here we go again how dare she was not able to produce question. What matter now she has a man who loves no matter her what her situation. Uncondtional love

Love her. I personally think the ring is a bit over the top, but I am not the one paying for it or wearing it. I just find it interesting how some people can slam her for moving on and being happy. Brad cheated on her, and is still upheld like he is a wonderful person. Plus, Brad and Angelina always stated they would not marry until it was legal for everyone to marry- yet they are getting married… They just don’t seem like someone I would wanna look up to.

If ANYONE thinks she had not planned on marrying to this guy since the day she saw him on a billboard, you must come see my bridges that are for sale.
He has the weirdest eyebrows!

Beth – actually in an interview, Jen had said she suspected something going on between Brad and Angelina that she flew and spent a few days with Brad while he was filming with Angelina for “Mr. and Mrs. Smith” and did observe chemistry and undercurrents between them. She knew her marriage was at the end. When Brad wrapped up on the film and flew to Hawaii to meet Jen – it was to end their marriage. Brad then flew back to be with Angelina after Hawaii. They just did not announce it until much later – when Brad and Angelina posed on W! magazine with oldest three children. Jen was forced to acknowledge the break up.
