Justin Theroux reveals he left the Golden Globes early so he could watch it on TV with Jennifer Aniston in pajamas

Justin Theroux left the Golden Globes as early as he could - so he could watch it on TV with his wife.

The 45-year-old actor was one of the presenters at the ceremony on Sunday but was keen to get away from the Beverly Hilton hotel as soon as possible in order to join Jennifer Aniston and their friends for a viewing party in their pajamas.

Speaking to Entertainment Tonight at HBO's Globes afterparty, he said: 'I'm actually trying to get home.'

The Leftovers actor said: 'I almost skipped this interview because I got my girl and some friends in their pajamas who have delayed the show an hour so I can get back and watch the end of it with them.'

He admitted it was a very strange experience skipping the red carpet and just arriving for his spot instead of sitting and watching the ceremony as a guest.

'It's the first time I've come to the show and have not done the red carpet,' the actor revealed.

Adding: 'I just came to present, so I kind of did the dumb thing where I just showed up to present, and you kind of get rushed into the back door.' 

He also commented that the 'energy' of the room took him by surprise when he stepped on stage alongside Anna Kendrick.

'And you're not really prepared for the size of the event, and all the energy in the room,' Justin said.

He added: 'So I kind of came in and was not prepared. There's a benefit to walking and sitting down, having some food, and then continuing on.'

Jennifer and Justin began dating in May 2011, got engaged just over a year later and tied the knot at their Bel-Air estate in August 2015.
