Jennifer Aniston has made a rare quip about her divorce from Brad Pitt, following years of speculation that the pair may be rekindling their relationship. 

Jen made the comments while appearing on the final ever episode of The Ellen Show; where she spoke about her own experiences of being part of a long-running show that was coming to an end. 

Jen became a household name after appearing on Friends, which ran for 10 seasons between 1994 and 2004. 

Ellen, who has helmed The Ellen Show for 19 years, asked: “I want to talk about the ending of Friends. What did you do to deal with that?”

To which Jen laughed, let out an exaggerated sign and said: “Oh, the ending of Friends. Well, I got a divorce and went into therapy.”

She went on: “Then I did a movie called The Break-Up. 

“I just leaned into the end. I was just like, ‘You know what, guys? Let’s make this a completely new chapter.”

Jen usually remains tight-lipped about her past relationship - and subsequent divorce - to Brad.

The couple tied the knot back in 2000 before announcing their divorce in 2005 - just months ahead of the finale of Friends. 

Brad went on to marry his Mr and Mrs Smith co-star Angelina Jolie, while Jen got hitched to Justin Theroux - both couples have now gone their separate ways, which has prompted speculation that Brad and Jen could reunite. 

The rumours went into overdrive after the former-couple were seen at Screen Actors Guild Awards in 2020. 

And fans got their hopes up even higher in September of the same year when the pair were seen during a fundraising table read for Fast Times at Ridgemont High.

The couple’s characters made some pretty flirty comments to each other during the read, where they were also joined by stars including Morgan Freeman and Matthew McConaughey. 

However, Jen was quick to shut down any talk of a reunion - in an interview with Howard Stern shortly after the clips went viral she explained: “It was absolutely fun. Brad and I are buddies. We're friends.”

She added: “We speak, and there's no oddness at all, except for everyone that probably watched it and was wanting there to be, or assumed there to be. 

“We had fun, and it was for a great cause.”
