a look back at their tumultuous relationship

It’s been over a decade since Hollywood’s most wanted couple, Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt, broke up in 2005.

And even though a lot has happened since then, fans of the ancient flames can’t help but look back on their relationship from time to time, clinging to the hope that the universe can bring them back together.

The Friends star and the Fight Club group met in 1998 after being created by their respective agents, shortly after Pitt canceled his two-year engagement to Gwyneth Paltrow.

The two made their first public appearance at the Emmy Awards in Los Angeles in 1999, leaving the world in awe of their chemistry.

Pitt wasted no time in kneeling and asking the big question in front of his beloved when the two married in 2000 in a fairy tale ceremony in Malibu.

On the other hand, Paltrow, who had recently ended her long-standing relationship with Pitt, struggled to cope with the news that he was moving in with Aniston, although they later came to cordial terms.

Looking back on her relationship with Pitt and the first date they had, Aniston told Diane Sawyer in an interview in 2004: “We both knew [we liked each other] On the first date “.

She added, “It was weird … I thought,‘ That’s weird. That was a really easy night. That was so much fun. “

Aniston also expressed her desire to start a family with Pitt, certain that she could manage motherhood along with her work.

However, their love story was cut short when the two filed for divorce in 2005 after Pitt allegedly cheated on her with her co-star at the time, Angelina Jolie, whom she later married and shared six children with.

Meanwhile, Aniston hooked up with Justin Theroux in 2015, but their marriage also couldn’t last for more than two years, as they parted ways in 2017. However, the former couple remains good friends.

Years later, after Pitt and Jolie’s marriage collapsed in 2016, The Blast reported that the actor reached out to his ex-wife and spread an olive branch for his mistakes that affected their marriage at the time.

A source told the publication, “Brad is in such a different place from when he was together. Brad is really an introspective guy who has worked hard on himself. “
