The couple, who were one of the most famous Hollywood couples in the early 2000s, but divorced in 2005 and went onto marry other people. Brad famously got together with his Mr and Mrs Smith co-star Angelina Jolie following their divorce, while Jennifer married Justin Theroux.
“I really do hope that someday we can be friends again,” Jennifer told Vanity Fair following their split. “I will love [Brad] for the rest of my life. He’s a fantastic man. I don’t regret any of it, and I’m not going to beat myself up about it,” she continued.
Jennifer’s wish became true as after her divorce from Justin was finalised in 2018, the pair rekindled a close friendship and celebrated together at the Friends star’s 50th birthday. Brad sought out a very lavish and thoughtful gift for Jennifer to mark her special birthday.
During their marriage, the couple shared a house together in Beverly Hills which went on the market following their slit. The Mirror reports that at the time, sources close to Jennifer said that “losing their dream home worsened the heartache of their divorce and it was one of her biggest regrets not buying Brad out”.
Brad agreed to splash out $79million to buy the house back, just so that he can give it to Jennifer. The actress was reportedly emotional when she found out his intentions, which came after the pair apparently reminisced about their times together in the marital home.
While the couple have forged a close friendship years after their split, model Caprice Bourret thinks Brad and Jennifer were a perfect couple. The model claimed that she went to dinner with Angelina and Brad separately and that her time with the Hollywood actress was ‘awkward’ as she failed to build a rapport with her.
Speaking to New Magazine, Caprice also claimed that Brad was more of an ‘Aniston man’ than being suited to 43-year-old Angelina. She said: “I had dinner with Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie separately, though I can’t remember if they were married at the time. Brad was amazing, Angelina was a b****.
“She didn’t say one word the entire night. She just sat there looking into space.”
