Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston are reportedly “secretly talking again,” years after their memorable reunion at the 2020 SAG Awards.
According to the Daily Mail, the former couple has renewed their friendship while maintaining a strictly platonic relationship. A source told the outlet that Pitt was the first to reach out to Aniston, allegedly exchanging new phone numbers.
“They both had new numbers, so they swapped and said they’d be in touch,” the insider added. “Brad was the first one to text.”

“During season 2 of ‘The Morning Show,’ Brad was coming to set and having lunch with Jen in her trailer,” the insider added. “He would arrive and get dropped directly at her trailer for a private lunch just the two of them, and then he would leave once filming for Jen resumed.”
The source also claimed that Pitt and Aniston met privately at the actress’ home several times, away from the paparazzi and public attention.
Jennifer Aniston & Brad Pitt’s Renewed Bond Strictly Platonic, Says Source
GettyDespite their renewed friendship, sources told the Daily Mail that Pitt and Aniston’s relationship remains strictly platonic.
“A platonic relationship grew, nothing more,” the insider claimed. “They’d gone through so much both privately and publicly that a romantic relationship would never be on the cards.”
Another source told the outlet that Pitt has “no hidden agenda or expectation” in reconnecting with Aniston, adding that he “missed having a trusted friend” more than anything.
“She was, and continues to be, one of the few people he feels he can trust completely,” the insider said. “They still keep in touch from time to time. Getting back together with her and talking again was one of the best decisions that he has ever made.”
GettyFans were quick to share their thoughts about Pitt and Aniston reconnecting in private.
One fan commented, “I think she is just a genuinely decent human being. I hope she healed and got what she needed from reconnecting.”
Another wrote, “She has a new BF, Jim Curtis. They’ve been together a year plus, but who says exes cannot be friends?”
Someone added, “While I don’t think that they will get back together, I would love it if they did.”
It is worth noting that both Pitt and Aniston have not confirmed these rumors, so it’s best to take them with a grain of salt.
Pitt and Aniston first started dating in 1998 after their agents set them up on a blind date. They married on July 29, 2000, before ultimately divorcing in 2005.
Currently, Pitt is in a relationship with jewelry designer Ines de Ramon. Meanwhile, Aniston is dating hypnotherapist Jim Curtis.
