Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux

Jennifer Aniston insists she only removed her engagement ring to get it cleaned.

The 45-year-old actress, who got engaged to 'The Leftovers' star Justin Theroux in August 2012, sparked rumours they had split after she was spotted out without her eight-carat radiant cut diamond sparkler in Los Angeles on Wednesday (29.10.14).

But a spokesperson for the 'Cake' beauty told E! News: "Everyone should calm down - the ring was just being cleaned and is safely back on her hand."

A source close to the couple recently revealed they are quietly planning to tie the knot in New York City in December.

The insider said: "It's really happening! Jen is excited beyond belief. She says it will be the best day of her life."

Justin, 43, previously confessed he feels a lot of pressure from the public to marry his fiancée, but isn't bothered by it.

He said: "There is this hum of pressure that - I can't stress enough - I just don't pay any attention to ... We're just doing our own thing. We are completely happy, obviously, but we're not on anyone else's timeframe."
