With the split of Brangelina and Jennifer Aniston’s divorce to Justin Theroux happening coincidentally close to one another, people have been rooting for a Brad and Jennifer reunion – and last night’s SAG awards definitely fuelled that fire…
Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston appeared to be getting on like a house on fire at last night’s Screen Actor’s Guild (SAG) awards, and everyone is living for it.
In one photo, 56-year-old Pitt was seen grabbing Aniston’s hand, followed by another shot of the pair beaming with smiles at each other.
As well as the adorable photos, a clip emerged on social media of Pitt watching Aniston’s award acceptance speech for Best Female Actor in a Drama Series for her role in The Morning Show.
In the video you see Pitt proudly stood watching his ex-wife’s speech and, according to ET Canada, the actor even shed a tear while watching it.
In the interview with Aniston after the awards, the interviewer says to the 50-year-old actress:
You had a lot of people emotional while giving your speech; backstage here you had Brad Pitt watching on that monitor [points at a screen] crying.
In response to being told this, Aniston says ‘No?!’ to the interviewer in shock.
Even the SAG Awards tweeted about the pair’s reunion – it shared the pictures of Pitt and Aniston with the caption, ‘We’ll just leave this here’.
In her speech, Jen talks about her ‘humble beginnings’, saying:
I was thinking back to when I was a little girl and I would – I didn’t have a VCR but I had a tape recorder – and I would tape Laverne and Shirley, Happy Days, on my tape deck, and I would listen to these episodes in my head and I would just think, ‘I’m going to one day do that, I really know I’m going to get out this house’ – now that’s another story – and I’m going to be on there and I’m going to do that.
And then I got a Bob’s Big Boy commercial and I got into SAG!
Pitt went on to win an award for Male Actor in a Supporting Role for Quentin Tarantino’s Once upon a Time in Hollywood.
Accepting his award, Pitt simply opened his speech with, ‘I need to add this to my Tinder profile,’ to laughs from the audience.
Not sure if it’s just me, or is Brad trying to hint he’s still single to a certain someone who was endearingly watching his speech from the audience…
This has definitely made my day, my month or maybe even my year.
