It’s been almost a year since Justin Theroux and Jennifer Aniston called it quits after two years of marriage. Now, the actor is finally opening up about their highly publicized divorce. As we all know, Hollywood breakups can get messy, but this one seems to be different. Let’s dive into what Justin had to say.
Justin Theroux’s Honest Take on Their "Gentle" Split
In a recent interview with the New York Times, Justin, who’s now 47, revealed some touching insights about their separation. He described it as a “gentle” and “heartbreaking” split, emphasizing that there was absolutely no animosity between them. "The good news is that it was probably the most—I’m choosing my words really carefully—it was kind of the most gentle separation," Justin shared during the sit-down, which was published on Saturday, September 22.
Heartbreak and Friendship: Justin’s Perspective
Justin added that the breakup was "heartbreaking," but only in the sense that their friendship would not be the same day to day. He explained, "The friendship is shifting and changing, you know, so that part is something that we’re both very proud of." It’s clear that both Justin and Jennifer are focused on maintaining a healthy and respectful relationship post-divorce, which speaks volumes about their maturity and mutual respect.

A Civil and Respectful Split
Justin also confessed that the breakup was anything but messy. In fact, it was quite civil. "Again, neither one of us is dead, neither one of us is looking to throw hatchets at each other," Justin shared. "It’s more like, it’s amicable. It’s boring, but, you know, we respected each other enough that it was as painless as it could be." This level of civility in a celebrity divorce is refreshing, and it shows that both parties prioritized mutual respect over public drama.
Jennifer Aniston Weighs In
Jennifer, now 49, also recently spoke about their decision to end their marriage during an interview with InStyle. She revealed that it wasn’t as painful for her as many might have assumed. "The misconceptions are ‘Jen can’t keep a man,’ and ‘Jen refuses to have a baby because she’s selfish and committed to her career.’ Or that I’m sad and heartbroken,” she told the magazine. "First, with all due respect, I’m not heartbroken. And second, those are reckless assumptions," she confessed in August.
She continued, "No one knows what’s going on behind closed doors. No one considers how sensitive that might be for my partner and me. They don’t know what I’ve been through medically or emotionally. There is a pressure on women to be mothers, and if they are not, then they’re deemed damaged goods. Maybe my purpose on this planet isn’t to procreate. Maybe I have other things I’m supposed to do?" It’s clear that Jennifer is focused on her own journey and isn’t letting external pressures dictate her life choices.
We’re grateful to hear that the split wasn’t as painful for the couple as we might have imagined. It’s always inspiring to see celebrities handle personal matters with grace and respect, and Justin and Jennifer seem to have done just that.
