Reese Witherspoon and Jennifer Aniston work on 'The Morning Show' together.

“Reese is playing down this new romance, but it’s obvious she’s very all over him,” the insider spilled. “She totally lights up when she talks about him, and she’s now started saying that Jen needs to find a guy like him.”

It has been years since Aniston has been in a serious relationship, as she divorced her first husband, Brad Pitt, in 2005 and then moved on with her second husband, Justin Theroux, whom she split from in 2017.

“Reese spends a lot of time with Jen and knows firsthand the sort of rut she’s in, whether she wants to admit it or not,” the source continued. “A lot of people assume that Jen is just biding her time, but as far as Reese is concerned, she’s gone past the point of being picky. She’s convinced she’s in a state of paralysis when it comes to her dating life.”

Despite Aniston’s lack of romance, her Morning Show costar is apparently head over heels for Haarman.

“Having this sort of companionship in her life again has made Reese realize how much she missed it, so she can only imagine how Jen is feeling after so long being single,” they shared. “Now, Reese has decided what [Jen] needs is to get set up on a double date so that she and this new guy she’s dating can help break the ice. Reese is confident, if they put the word out, there are plenty of decent men who would jump at the chance.”

Despite not wanting to “pressure” Aniston, Witherspoon hopes she can help out her friend, whom she met in 2000.
