Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt endured one of the most shocking and talked-about celebrity divorces of all time. The Hollywood golden couple devasted their fans when they announced the end of their marriage. Pitt then quickly moved on to actress Angelina Jolie. Despite the rumors of bad blood between Aniston and Pitt, it seems that they have put the past behind them. They’ve been spotted spending time with mutual friends, and all appears to be good now. However, that doesn’t stop the former Friends star from dreading facing off with her ex-husband during awards season.
Jennifer Aniston is said to be a favorite for an Emmy nomination, as well as other awards, thanks to her series The Morning Show. While this wouldn’t be a first for the actress, she may be going head-to-head with Brad Pitt along the way. His Netflix hit 3 Body Problem could have the pair competing for Best Drama series, per In Touch Weekly. If both parties get nominated, they’ll be circulating at the same events. Of course, all eyes will be on the duo, which is exactly what Aniston does not want.
“It’s all put Brad and Jen on another awards season showdown, this time at the Emmys in September, where everybody expects they will wind up competing directly against each other in the Best Drama Series category,” a source tells the outlet.
“Jen has a ton of momentum right now because people have turned around on The Morning Show and love the edge she shows on it. But if this awards season turns into the ‘Brad and Jen Show,’ she’ll be absolutely mortified,” the insider added.
Jennifer Aniston and ex-husband Brad Pitt came face to face with one another in 2020 at the SAG Awards. There he won for his role in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. Meanwhile, Aniston took home the honor for her work in The Morning Show. They met up with one another backstage, and the cameras were ready to capture it all. Their friendly meeting took the internet by storm, and fans couldn’t stop talking about it.
Pitt and Aniston married in 2000, but called it quits just five years later. Aniston later went on to marry Justin Theroux, whom she divorced in 2018. Meanwhile, Pitt and Angelina Jolie wed in 2014 but split in 2016. He is now dating jewelry designer Ines de Ramon.
