(showbizspy.com) - Jennifer Aniston was recently seen getting 'very close' to Orlando Bloom at Eva Longoria's newly opened Los Angeles restaurant Beso, sources claim.
"They were sitting very close," an onlooker told the New York Post newspaper, "and she was looking at him like he was her favorite guy in the world."
Bloom, 31, was recently linked to model Miranda Kerr, but she was "nowhere to be found" at the party, the source adds.
Since the former 'Friends' actress' divorce from Brad Pitt in 2005, she has dated a string of hunky men, including Vince Vaughn, British model Paul Sculfor, and Sex and the City star Jason Lewis. More recently, though, she hooked up with her 'Traveling' co-star Aaron Eckhart while filming in Vancouver, and a set-worker she met while filming on the Canada set.
"She's a strong willed, successful, wealthy and independent woman. She just needs someone that and more to convince her to relax and enjoy life and risk falling in love," a friend of the 39-year-old actress recently said.
