Talk about a sight for sore eyes!
Former friends Courteney Cox and Brad Pitt reunited at a recent event — without Jennifer Aniston.
Cox and Pitt, both 60, posed together at a Rock4EB fundraising event on Saturday, Sept. 21, in Malibu, Calif., marking a rare moment for the two, who were close during the “Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood” actor’s marriage to Cox’s best friend.
The pair put their arms around each other and posed for a photo at the star-studded fundraiser that aims to find a cure for the rare skin condition epidermolysis bullosa.
Cox slipped into a stripped button-up shirt she kept undone for the outing. The “Friends” actress rocked barely-there makeup, leaving her dark hair down and tousled.
Pitt wore beige pants with neon yellow stripes that he paired with a white button-up and aviator-style sunglasses. His plus one to the event was his girlfriend of nearly two years, Ines de Ramon.
The pals looked like no time had passed despite it being nearly 20 years since Pitt’s split and divorce from Aniston.
The trio appeared on an iconic 2001 “Friends” episode titled “The One with the Rumor” during Season 8. Pitt played Will Colbert, a character tied to the “I Hate Rachel [Green]” club in high school alongside David Schwimmer’s Ross Geller.
When Pitt guest starred on “Friends,” he was married to Aniston. The pair said “I do” in Malibu, Calif., on July 29, 2000, but the Hollywood couple’s relationship came crashing down years later in January 2005 when they announced their split.
“We would like to announce that after seven years together we have decided to formally separate. For those who follow these sorts of things, we would like to explain that our separation is not the result of any of the speculation reported by the tabloid media,” Pitt and Aniston said in a joint statement at the time.
“This decision is the result of much thoughtful consideration. We happily remain committed and caring friends with great love and admiration for one another. We ask in advance for your kindness and sensitivity in the coming months,” they added.
Aniston filed for divorce in March 2005, and it was finalized by October. The exes have become platonic friends since his split from Angelina Jolie.
Pitt attended her 50th birthday party in 2019. They also reunited at the 2020 Screen Actors Guild Awards before their flirty table-read of “Fast Times at Ridgemont High.”
While some fans have hoped for a reconciliation between the two, Aniston has made it clear that she is “buddies” with Pitt.
“It was absolutely fun. Brad and I are buddies, we’re friends,” she told Howard Stern about their “Ridgemont High” reunion.
“And we speak, and there’s no oddness at all, except for everyone that probably watched it and was wanting there to be, or assumed there to be.”
