When Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt’s marriage came to an abrupt end in 2005 after he met Angelina Jolie on the set of Mr. & Mrs. Smith, many were shocked by the sudden turn of events. However, despite their highly publicized divorce, Aniston still reportedly extended an invitation to her ex-husband when she tied the knot with Justin Theroux in 2015.
In a 2007 interview, Pitt opened up about their split, revealing that he and Aniston still maintained a deep friendship despite the end of their romantic relationship. He expressed that they had shared a lot of life together that wasn’t erased by their divorce.
Speaking to V magazine, Pitt said, “Jen and I still maintain a deep friendship and have a lot of life together that isn’t erased in any way. I don’t know how better to have handled (it). My view was, this was no one’s business in the end – at least in matters of the heart. The thing guiding me then was, you don’t know how many days you have, and you need life to be everything you need it to be.”
Despite the challenges they faced in their relationship, Aniston and Pitt’s ability to maintain a strong friendship even after their divorce serves as a testament to the depth of their connection. Their story reminds us that relationships, whether romantic or platonic, can evolve and endure even in the face of adversity.
