Early 2000s golden couple Brad Pitt [1] and Jennifer Aniston [2] shocked the world in 2005 when they announced they were getting divorced, and rumors soon spread that he'd cheated on her with his Mr. and Mrs. Smith costar Angelina Jolie [3]. Now, Jennifer is happily married to husband Justin Theroux [4], but Brad is going through a tumultuous divorce with Angelina [5]. Of all the people to reach out to in Hollywood about his marital woes, Jen would seem like the last person he'd want to talk to [6] given their past, but Us Weekly is reporting [7] that Brad has turned to the Mother's Day [8] actress for support, and has "been texting" her about his split.

The Allied [9] star apparently tracked down Jen's phone number through "a tangled web" of contacts in order to reach out to her on her 48th birthday [10] in early February. "They started talking once he wished her a happy birthday," the source said, further explaining that Brad has "confided in Jen" and "told her he's having a hard time with his split." His olive branch has supposedly led to them "exchanging a few texts reminiscing about the past." The insider also noted that "Justin is OK with them being friends," because he knows "Jen just wants to be nice." Serious question: is this enough to nominate Jennifer Aniston for sainthood?
