Courteney Cox is reportedly feeling the pressure to get engaged before her Friends co-star Jennifer Aniston ties the knot, according to sources from RadarOnline.com.
While Aniston, 56, has been dating 50-year-old Jim Curtis for just a few months, 61-year-old Cox has been in a relationship with her fiancé, musician Johnny McDaid, for over a decade, including multiple breakups.
The two couples were recently spotted enjoying a double date at the trendy restaurant, Nobu, located in Malibu.

As Aniston’s relationship with Curtis grows stronger, Cox is feeling an increased urgency for McDaid to propose, a source revealed.
“Courteney is genuinely thrilled for Jen,” the insider disclosed, despite initial hesitations about Curtis, who is a life coach and hypnotist.
“Now it’s obvious that Curtis is sincere, and Jen has expressed to Courteney that she sees a long-term future with him.”
According to the inside source, Aniston is approaching this new relationship with caution after her two previous marriages—one to Brad Pitt from 2000 to 2005, and another to Justin Theroux from 2015 until 2018.

“But if Jim were to propose, she would wholeheartedly embrace that,” the source shared. “And it certainly wouldn’t be a prolonged engagement, either.”
With this developing situation, Cox is now actively encouraging McDaid to pop the question, knowing that if Aniston ends up walking down the aisle first, it would be a “bittersweet” moment for her.
“It’s been her dream for over ten years now to marry Johnny,” the insider added.

McDaid, known for his talents in music as a member of Snow Patrol and collaborator with Ed Sheeran, reportedly has previously agreed to get engaged to Cox but often finds reasons to delay. This has left her frustrated.
“Courteney is at a stage in her life where she’s fed up with the indecisiveness,” the source noted. “She believes life is fleeting and shouldn’t be wasted on scenarios that never materialize.”
“Ideally, Johnny would agree to a quick and uncomplicated wedding, allowing her to assist Jen in planning her dream event with Jim. But Courteney is determined to be the first to walk down the aisle.”
