A source close to Jennifer Aniston has described how the Friends star will allegedly interact with her former husband Brad Pitt following his divorce settlement with Angelina Jolie.
Pitt and Jolie reached a settlement in their divorce on December 30, 2024, eight years after Jolie initially filed for divorce in September 2016.
At the time, Jolie cited ‘irreconcilable differences’ and requested that she be given full custody of the couple’s six children, who were between the ages of eight and 15 at the time.
Over the years, the proceedings dragged on due to a custody trial, a legal battle relating to Jolie’s stake in a French winery the couple previously co-owned, and claims made about a 2016 incident on board a private jet.
When the couple reached a settlement at the end of 2024, Jolie’s lawyer told CNN: “More than eight years ago, Angelina filed for divorce from Mr. Pitt. She and the children left all of the properties they had shared with Mr. Pitt, and since that time she has focused on finding peace and healing for their family. This is just one part of a long ongoing process that started eight years ago. Frankly, Angelina is exhausted, but she is relieved this one part is over.”
The divorce marks the end of Pitt’s second marriage following his first to Aniston, who he split up with in 2005 shortly before he began dating Jolie.
A source claiming to have knowledge about Aniston’s feelings on the matter has now told the Mail Online that the Morning Show actor ‘isn’t looking to talk about Brad and Angelina’s divorce publicly’, and apparently the same can be said for private interactions.
“Nor is she looking to reach out to Brad and offer any congratulations,’ the source continued.
Since Aniston and Pitt run in similar circles as Hollywood A-listers, the source acknowledged they are likely to meet at industry events and shared claims about Aniston’s plans for their next encounter.
“The next time they see each other, they’ll be cordial with each other, they have been in the recent past and that won’t change,” they said.
“They will talk about life and mostly anything else, but they aren’t going to dive into his feelings about the divorce or anything like that. Angelina is not a talking point between them and that will remain the same forever.”
The source went on to claim that Aniston is ‘friendly’ with Pitt, alleging they have ‘settled’ any issues between them and ‘will never stop being respectful with each other’.
“Jen would love Brad to be happy first and foremost, and believes he is happy,” they said.
UNILAD has reached out to representatives for Aniston for comment.
