Who was Jennifer Aniston married to?
Aniston was married to fellow Hollywood star Brad Pitt from 2000-2005, who famously left her for Angelina Jolie.
She then married Justin Theroux in 2015, before they divorced in 2017. However, the pair still appear to be very close friends, with Aniston sending her ex a heartfelt message on his birthday.
Speaking about their friendship to Esquire, Theroux revealed: "I would say we've remained friends. We don't talk every day, but we call each other. We FaceTime. We text.
"Like it or not, we didn't have that dramatic split, and we love each other. I'm sincere when I say that I cherish our friendship.
"Also, she makes me laugh very, very hard. She's a hilarious person. It would be a loss if we weren't in contact, for me personally. And I'd like to think the same for her."
He added: "I think that when you get good at relationships — and here I am, single — if you love the person the same way you loved them in the relationship, it would behoove you to love them the same way out of the relationship.”
