In May last year, Jennifer opened up about her split from ex-husband Brad, 58, during the finale of Ellen DeGeneres’ talk show.The Rachel Green actress returned to The Ellen Show 19 years after appearing on its very first episode in 2003.Jennifer was Ellen’s first ever guest, and it was clear that the host, 64, was emotional to see her back on the sofa for one last chat.During their talk, Jennifer made a rare reference to her divorce from ex Brad, as the pair reminisced about their first interview nearly two decades ago.Sitting down with Ellen after the pair exchanged a hug, the Office Space star asked: “Where does 19 years go?

I don’t understand.”Reflecting on The Ellen Show’s debut, the presenter asked: “What do you remember? I remember vividly you being on the first show.She continued: “I want to talk about the ending of Friends - what did you do to deal with that?”Speaking candidly, Jennifer replied: “Well, I got a divorce and went into therapy.”“Then I did a movie called The Break Up,” Jennifer continued. “I just leaned into the end.“Let's make this a completely new chapter.

End everything and start out. And it worked great.”Jennifer also spoke to TV host Oprah Winfrey in 2005 about the difficulties of having a fairytale romance in the public eye.The host said: "People were obsessed about your marriage and then the divorce (with Brad Pitt).

I think it's because you guys represented the picture on the wedding cake."And so, if this doesn't work out, then you're thinking, 'Oh Lord, I'm in trouble.' I think it's that kind of association.
