Their marriage came to an end in 2005, with Brad moving on with his Mr and Mrs Smith co-star, Angelina Jolie.

Jen has a new man in her life too, but dodged questions about it during her chat about her past loves and career in a new interview with Vanity Fair.

“Ironically, I went to her and Brad’s engagement party,” she recalled. Then, when asked by the interviewer if she and Paltrow ever discuss stories about their shared ex, the actress said, “Oh, of course. How can we not? We’re girls.

“We’re always swapping advice - ‘What are you doing for this? What are you doing for that? Do you have a new doctor for that?" This isn't the first time the famous friends have spoken about each other publicly.

Six years ago, Gwyneth attended Jen's 50th birthday bash and posted photos from the event on Instagram. She described the Friends star as a "ray of sunshine" and "example of perpetual goodness."

Jen is said to be in new relationship with hypnotist and wellness coach Jim Curtis. According to a close friend of Brad, 61, he is over the moon about Jen's new relationship.

"Brad couldn't be more pleased that Jen has found love with this guy who seems so tuned into her," they claimed.

Speaking to MailOnline, they added: "His marriage ended – with a bang and a whimper - two decades ago, but he never lost his affection for her. When you find the right partner, all's right with the world, he hopes the same is true about Jen."

It comes after Jennifer opened up about her love life, telling Closer magazine: "A good place to be is to be open to [love], but not seeking it. That way you don't put any pressure on the situation, and if it happens organically, then amazing."
