Watch Jennifer Aniston Joke About Divorcing Brad Pitt During Ellen's Final Episode

Jennifer Aniston joined Ellen DeGeneres for the final episode of her long-running show—a pretty notable moment considering JenAn was Ellen's very first guest (when she showed up in Seven jeans and a theory top, iconic).

Speaking about the full circle moment and what it was like for her when Friends ended after its long run, Jennifer said "Well, I got a divorce and went into therapy," Aniston quipped. "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."

Reminder: Jennifer and Brad Pitt divorced in 2005, about a year after Friends aired its final episode. Things were pretty tense for a while, but Jen and Brad have reconnected since their split, leading to a lot of internet fan fiction about them potentially getting back together one day. Especially after a virtual table read of Fast Times at Ridgemont High, where Jen and Brad played love interests and the vibe was all kinds of flirty.

But back in 2021, Jen told The Howard Stern show "Brad and I are buddies, we're friends. And 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."

Kay, just gonna casually drop this!
