JENNIFER Aniston's former fiancé Tate Donovan has been phoning the actress to tell her she's the "love of his life".

Gossip website femalefirst.co.uk reports that the 39-year-old actress - who recently rekindled her relationship with Gravity singer John Mayer - is said to be considering giving her relationship with Donovan a second chance.

A source close to Aniston, who split from Donovan in 1995 after three years of dating, said: "Jennifer cannot believe it. A few months ago she was single and heartbroken, and now she has got two men professing their love for her.

"Tate has been in touch with Jennifer on and off over the years. But this time it was different. He called her again and again and hinted they should start dating.

"Jennifer thought it was a joke at first, but she is immensely flattered and is considering her options."

Aniston - who appeared with Donovan in several episodes of Friends when he played her love interest Joshua - is said to be finding it difficult to choose between the two and is considering which man would make a better father.

The source added: "Jennifer really wants a baby, and whatever relationship she has now may be her last chance to settle down and have a family. I think Jennifer sees the family man in Tate. At the same time, she wants things to work between her and John."
