Meanwhile, Jennifer Aniston explained the couple’s new dog Sophie, a boxer-pitbull cross, is a “test run” for having children.

According to Daily Mirror newspaper, Jennifer Aniston told a friend: “I’ll be married by the end of the year.

“We’re constantly laughing. Now we’ve got our new baby things are getting serious. We have new responsibilities.

“She’s like a test run for kids, I guess … although hopefully kids are easier to house-train.”

Jennifer Aniston is said to have added: “Justin and I argue over who takes the dog out and who disciplines her, but that’s about it. Things are fabulous. I’m happy.

“If he’s not got down on one knee, or we’re not married, by the end of the year, it’s over!”

Jennifer Aniston is beginning to open up about her relationship, despite remaining resolutely tight-lipped at the beginning of their union.

The actress even felt relaxed enough to even joke about how romantic boyfriend Justin Theroux in an interview to promote Wanderlust.

“He’s just the most cold, icy, fishy kind of a guy,” Jennifer Aniston laughed on Good Morning America.

“I’m trying to warm him up but you know…”

Jennifer Aniston then agreed with interviewer Lara Spencer when she proclaimed that Justin Theroux was “really cute and great in this movie”.
