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.

Wait…..where is the “shiny new sparkler”? The insert looks like a frosted dull gemstone. Also, I feel bad for Jen because she has wrinkly knuckles like I do. Rings never look elegant on us. I wonder if Botox would fix that! Ha!

I am happy for her, but how many more articles are there going to be before she gets married. I think it time to leave her alone and let her enjoy this time.

This has been years, but…in JENNIFER’S OWN WORDS

“There was no cheating” JA told Brad to go sleep with Angelina and come back to her and he said NO he CANNOT do that, she said alright GO THEN.
Why do you people continue to make up your own history…it was all in the Vanity F interview.

I wish people would mind their business and stop judging cuz most y’all aint saints at all lmao and whatever did happen or is going to happen its really between them and God and not the world. God Bless the world.

To clear it up for the ignorant, Brad and Angelina were not together until SHE(aniston) filed for divorce, she said there was not an affair but that he was attracted to her. Their marriage fell apart it happens especially when you prpomise to have childrena nd postpone it for you career. Also, funny how her love life picks up when she has a new movie out soon. I hope she;s happy because she broke up his relationship. And Brad and Angelina never talk bout thier plans unless asked and then it;s vague.
