Jennifer Aniston

Justin Theroux, Jennifer Aniston split

MNA Entertainment Desk: Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux are separating after two years of marriage, they said in a statement on Thursday.

The pair, who shared a mansion in the upscale Bel Air neighborhood of Los Angeles, met on the set of the 2008 film “Tropic Thunder” in Hawaii, and started dating in 2011.

“In an effort to reduce any further speculation, we have decided to announce our separation,” the former couple said in the statement released by Aniston’s publicist Stephen Huvane.

“This decision was mutual and lovingly made at the end of last year. We are two best friends who have decided to part ways as a couple, but look forward to continuing our cherished friendship.”

The statement said the couple would have kept the arrangement private, but wanted to make sure people heard the truth, “given that the gossip industry cannot resist an opportunity to speculate and invent.”

It was the second marriage for former “Friends” star Aniston, who wed Hollywood heartthrob Brad Pitt in 2000 — forming one of Tinseltown’s most glamorous couples at the time.

They divorced in 2005 after Pitt met Angelina Jolie, from whom he is now estranged, on the set of “Mr and Mrs Smith.”
