Hollywood it-couple Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston may have split decades ago, but that doesn’t stop fans from reminiscing on their relationship! The two A-listers wed on July 29, 2000, and had one of the most high-profile relationships in Hollywood. They were the superstar it-couple of the 90s and early 2000s, but ultimately called it quits after five years of marriage in early 2005. Pitt went on to marry Angelina Jolie, and Aniston wed Justin Theroux.
