Jennifer Aniston Reportedly Set To Ditch L.A. After Stalker Incident

Jennifer Aniston is reportedly preparing to leave Hollywood behind and relocate to her newly renovated $15 million Montecito mansion following her scary stalking incident.

Earlier this month, a stalker broke into the actress’s home, leaving her terrified. However, things took a worse turn when cops also disclosed her address, which has caused her to feel unsafe.

The ex-wife of Jennifer Aniston’s stalker has since shared what it was like living with him, explaining that she had “problems” during her relationship with the man and that he acted “crazy.”

Aniston seems to be fed up with life in L.A. and has now set her sights on relocating to her newly renovated $15 million Montecito mansion.

The “Friends” star suffered a horrific home invasion on May 5 after 48-year-old stalker Jimmy Wayne Carwyle rammed through the gates of her $21 million Bel-Air mansion while she was inside.

According to the Daily Mail, she’s now set to move as her Montecito mansion recently reached its final stages after having its “windows, balconies” freed and adding a swimming pool in the backyard.

She’ll be neighbors with A-list stars like Gwyneth Paltrow, Rob Lowe, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, Katy Perry, and Zoe Saldana.

A source told the news outlet, “Jen is happy to have a safe place to run to where she can let her hair down.”

They continued, “Though she loves Los Angeles because it is where she grew up, she is craving more of a country setting these days away from the noise.”

Aniston notably bought her Montecito property from Oprah Winfrey in September 2022 in an off-market deal for $ 14.8 million.

The 4,320 square-foot home boasts four bedrooms and three bathrooms, a pool house, a cabana, and a guesthouse.

Renovation works are still ongoing, but the actress has completely changed some features, including the replacement of blue windows with modern, white-framed designs. The upper-level balconies have also been completed and now feature dark metal railings.

A source told the Daily Mail that the attack on her L.A. home “did a number” on her and left her “flipping out.”

“It’s a bad feeling knowing someone wants to break into your sanctuary. It’s such a shame that happened,” they said.

As if being harassed by a stalker wasn’t enough, Aniston also had to deal with cops mishandling the proceedings following the terrifying ordeal.

A source close to the actress told the Daily Mail that she was furious with the cops for revealing her address.

She also had to beef up her security in the wake of the event as she feared for her safety.

“Jen is furious with the LAPD for releasing where she lives. Although you can Google her address, she can’t believe the police revealed her block,” the insider told the news outlet. “Since the incident, she’s had people flooding outside her house, hoping to get a glimpse of her. As one of the biggest celebrities in the world, she expected more protection from the police.”

According to the Daily Mail, a source claimed that Aniston would have been fine if the LAPD had “just said it was her house in Bel-Air,” rather than sharing her exact location, which she believes “has put her at risk.”

Another source told the news outlet that the actress is “extremely shaken up” by the incident and is even “considering selling her property” because of the crash.

“Jen is getting to the point in her life where the last thing she ever wants is to fear for her safety,” the second source said.

They added, “It is filled with so many memories, but her safety is first and foremost.”
