Jennifer Aniston 'wants to adopt child'

She has a handsome new man, and now former Friends Jennifer Aniston has plans to adopt a child, according to US reports.

She has been working with the same agency that handled Sheryl Crow's recent adoption and she has started filling out the paperwork, an adoption agency source told the American edition of OK! magazine.

The report also suggests Aniston, 38, has moved in her flame, former Essex brickie Paul Sculfor, into her LA home.

"She is happier and more excited than she has ever been in her life," an unnamed close friend of the actress told OK.

Another friend said: "Jen has been thinking about adopting for a while. But after seeing Sheryl and her son, Wyatt, together, Jen didn't know why she was still waiting."

Aniston has always said she hoped to one day start a family, but when she and ex-husband Brad Pitt divorced in 2005, many believed the split was due to Aniston wanting to concentrate on her career rather than wanting a baby.

Pitt has adopted three children with his partner Angelina Jolie, and the pair also have a biological child.

The friend said: "Jen was devastated by those nasty whispers. The reason they split had nothing to do with kids."

Former boxer and construction worker Paul Sculfor, 36, also starred in a British commercial for Levi jeans, in which he played a drowned fisherman with three mermaids desperately after him and his jeans.

He has also appeared in adverts for Christian Dior and Jean Paul Gaultier.

His former partners include George Clooney's ex Lisa Snowdon, whom he dated for two years.

A spokesman for Aniston was not available for comment.
