Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux’s relationship has remained strong and friendly despite their divorce.
For Theroux, having Aniston in his life is more important than any media headline, so he is very careful about discussing her publicly. Although he talks to Aniston, he avoids talking about her in interviews to protect their privacy.

In an Esquire interview with Woody Harrelson, Theroux made it clear that he prefers to keep their relationship private because he has experienced the intense media scrutiny that comes with being in a public relationship.
Theroux finds it unpleasant and prefers to keep his personal life away from the public eye. “The internet is like this really big high school, and why on earth would you walk around it checking every room and broom closet for the bully to kick you’re as*? I don’t linger.”
Theroux is aware that anything he says about Aniston, even if it is loving, will be blown out of proportion by the media. Therefore, he chooses to remain tight-lipped about their relationship.
“There’s something to, once you’re out of that, where I want all of my relationships to exist within the four walls of whatever room we’re in. And I’m not trying to be evasive, but I talk to Jen—I don’t talk about Jen.”
Despite rumors and speculation, Aniston and Theroux are not romantically involved. Their marriage was brief, lasting from 2015 to 2018, but their bond remains strong.
Though they were recently spotted having dinner with friends at II Cantinori in New York City, Theroux values his inner circle and is protective of his relationship with Aniston. He keeps their details private and is determined to keep their friendship strong.
