Jennifer Aniston Jokes About Brad Pitt Divorce on 'The Ellen DeGeneres Show'
The ‘Friends’ alum joined the host on her final episode.
After 19 seasons, The Ellen DeGeneres Show has officially come to an end. For the host’s final episode, DeGeneres invited Jennifer Aniston, who was her first-ever guest when the program aired in 2003.
“Oh, where does 19 years go?” Aniston asked. “I don’t understand.” Talking about how Aniston was her first guest, DeGeneres admitted, “It was a huge deal to get you on my first show.”
DeGeneres then asked the actor how she dealt with the ending of Friends. “Well, I got a divorce and went into therapy,” Aniston candidly said. “Oh! And then I did a movie called The Break-Up. I just kinda leaned into the end. I just was like, ‘You know what, guys? Let’s make this a completely new chapter. Let’s just end everything and start new.’ It worked great.”
For those who need a refresher, Aniston and her then-husband Brad Pitt called it quits in 2005, a year after Friends ended. Aniston and Pitt eventually settled with other partners a few years after their divorce. Bitt tied the knot with Angelina Jolie in 2014, however, the two split in 2016. Meanwhile, Aniston wed Justin Theroux in 2015, who later broke up in 2018.
