She's kept notoriously quiet on the subject of her divorce, but now Jen’s finally spoken out about the split…
Jennifer Aniston has remained notoriously quiet on the subject of her split from Brad Pitt, rarely speaking about the break-up, which happened back in 2005.
But earlier this week the Friends actress gave a rare insight into her feelings about the separation, and how filming movie The Break-Up shortly afterwards helped her deal with the end of her marriage.

Speaking in a new interview with Inside the Actors Studio, Jen told how she was able to 'exorcise' some of her feelings during filming, which eventually helped her move on with her life.
'It was just a beautiful story about a couple breaking up, and I was slightly familiar on the topic and the issue,’ Jen explained.
‘I sort of honestly felt like, what a great way to sort of exorcise some of that.'

Telling how even the producers were reluctant to involve her in the movie, the Horrible Bosses beauty said the film not only helped her get over her own break-up, she also enjoyed working on it, too.
'I enjoyed it. It really enjoyed it. You would think otherwise, because even the producers were like, "I don't know if we should ask you to do this," but I was like, "why not? Turn the page, let's move on"',’ she said.
In fact Jen even fell for co-star Vince Vaughn, dating the comedy actor for two years.
She’s since dated musician John Mayer, muscle man Gerard Butler, and most recelny Wunderlust co-star Justin Theroux.
Earlier this week it was revealed the actress is so smitten with her new man she’s even is considering a year-long career break to concentrate on their relationship. Now that's commitment for you!
