The actors infamously parted ways in 2005
Here is the confession which Brad Pitt reportedly made to his then-wife Jennifer Aniston shortly before the couple's infamous divorce.
Once upon a time in the mythical world we all know as Hollywood, Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston were the it couple.
With looks, money, and glittering acting careers, it seemed the pair had it all after they tied the knot in 2000. Pitt even made a cameo appearance alongside Aniston in Friends in the Thanksgiving episode 'The One with the Rumour'.
Yep, it seemed like Pitt and Aniston had everything they could ever want... until they didn't.
In January 2005, the A-list power couple came to a swift end when the actors announced they were separating via a joint statement.
"We would like to announce that after seven years together we have decided to formally separate," the statement read.
"For those who follow these sorts of things, we would like to explain that our separation is not the result of any of the speculation reported by the tabloid media.
"This decision is the result of much thoughtful consideration. We happily remain committed and caring friends with great love and admiration for one another."
For a while thing,s seemed pretty amicable between the two, until a bombshell revelation would lead to a fierce divide among celebrity fans.
We are, of course, talking about the Angelina Jolie in the room.
Pitt and Jolie starred opposite each other in action-comedy Mr & Mrs Smith, which they filmed in 2003. The film came out the summer after his divorce from Aniston, and it seemed like the pair hit it off on set.
Pitt and Jolie would go on to publicly confirm their relationship, having six kids together before eventually getting married in 2014, and divorcing just two years later.
While there is no proof Pitt actually cheated on Aniston with Jolie, the quick turnaround between their relationships led many to believe so, leading to the infamous 'Team Jen vs Team Jolie' feud.
When these stories came up, Aniston avoided speaking about it, but it was later revealed by her Friends co-star, Courteney Cox, that she was aware of what was happening between her then-husband and Jolie.
Cox explained in an interview with Vanity Fair: "I don’t think he started an affair physically, but I think he was attracted to her.
"There was a connection, and he was honest about that with Jen. Most of the time, when people are attracted to other people, they don’t tell.
"At least he was honest about it. It was an attraction that he fought for a period of time," she revealed.
Aniston would later address the fan created rivalry in 2015, telling Entertainment Tonight: "I think it's time people stop with that petty B.S. and just start celebrating great work and stop with the petty kind of silliness.
"I think that’s slowly coming to an end. I really do. It’s just tiresome and old. It’s like an old leather shoe. Let’s buy a new pair of shiny shoes."
