Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston's rekindled friendship is blossoming and they are enjoying 'have each other's back'.
The 56-year-old Hollywood actor was once the talk of the town with Jennifer, 50, at his side as they were hailed as Tinseltown's 'golden couple'.
The pair have seen any original misgivings about meeting up disappear and now they are seeing their friendship grow, though fans who want them reunited romantically may be left wanting.
The exes, who divorced in 2005 after Brad had hooked up with Angelina Jolie , have met again at Aniston's holiday party at her home in Los Angeles.
This time, it has been reported that they are looking to rebuild their relationship and are rediscovering what made them great friends to begin with.
A source has told Hollywood Life : “They’ve built their bond and rekindled their friendship so much more than it was the past few years now that they’re both single."
It would seem that a different perspective on life has helped. The source continued: "They’ve realised what’s important in life and since they shared so much love for each other it’s such a nice thing for them both to have this kind of close friendship again.”
It would seem that that the reason why they have been able to build a strong friendship so quickly again, it down to the feeling that they can "trust" one another.
The source explained: "They trust each other and love the fact that they have someone who has their back, especially in Hollywood where trust and real friends are at a minimum."
Brad and Jen originally wed in July 2000 and they looked the picture perfect couple but within five years they had split and Brad only had eyes for Angelina, after meeting on the set of Mr. & Mrs. Smith.
Jennifer has spoken previously about the devastating effect that the marriage break-up had on her but time has been a great healer as the both meet again, both as singletons again.
Brad shares six children with Angelina and there have been times that their divorce and custody battle has threatened to turn into a nasty split, in the full glare of the public.
The pair are now co-parenting effectively and with consideration for each other's busy schedules.
