Brad Pitt’s shock message to Jennifer Aniston

It’s been 20 years since they split

They may have divorced 20 years ago, but Brad Pitt has made a huge gesture of affection to his ex-wife Jennifer Aniston after her recent stalker hell.

A 48-year-old man was recently charged with stalking and vandalism after crashing his car through the gates of 56-year-old Jen’s Bel Air home and sending unwanted voicemail, email and social media messages to the Friends star.

And a source tells Closer that Jennifer has been supported by many of her A-list friends, including Brad, 61.

The source says, ‘Jen’s stalking nightmare has been a living hell, but she’s been amazed by all the kind offers she’s received from her friends. The biggest surprise has been from Brad, who offered her his home in LA for Jen to stay at.

‘It’s no secret that Brad is still very fond of Jen, they’ve certainly put all their past divorce drama behind them long ago.’

The former couple started dating in 1998 and tied the knot in July 2000.

But their relationship infamously hit the rocks in 2004 when cheating rumours between Brad and his Mr& Mrs Smith co-star Angelina Jolie started to swirl, and he and Jen confirmed their split in January 2005.

Brad started dating Angelina later that year and they married in August 2014. Angelina filed for divorce two years later. He is now dating Ines de Ramon, 32.

Following their divorce, Jennifer dated her The Break-Up co-star Vince Vaughn for a year before entering a serious relationship with Justin Theroux in 2010. They married in 2015 but announced their divorce in 2018.
