Actress Jennifer Aniston surprised her then-husband Brad Pitt with a special gift for his 40th birthday, as revealed by celebrity chef Jamie Oliver. Aniston had reached out to Oliver to cook for Pitt, who was a fan of Oliver's cooking show 'The Naked Chef.' Oliver shared that Aniston had a hard time convincing him to take on the task, as he initially thought it was a prank call.
Oliver, who typically does not cook for celebrities, made an exception for the couple whom he described as 'beautiful.' He was flown out to prepare a meal for Pitt's birthday celebration, which was attended by guests like Courteney Cox.
Pitt and Aniston were married from 2000 to 2005 before going on to marry Angelina Jolie and Justin Theroux, respectively. Despite their divorces, Pitt and Aniston have maintained a friendly relationship over the years, even reuniting virtually for a table read in 2020.
Aniston has spoken positively about her past marriages, emphasizing that the decisions to end them were made in pursuit of happiness. Since her divorce from Theroux in 2018, Aniston has not publicly entered into a new relationship.
Pitt, on the other hand, has been dating Ines de Ramon since 2022 while still navigating his divorce from Jolie. The actor's relationship with Aniston and Theroux remains amicable, with regular communication between the former spouses.
