Many fans were shocked when Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux announced their decision to file for a divorce in February 2018 after two and a half years of marriage. Though the duo decided to end their marriage, the former wife of Brad Pitt revealed that she and Justin would continue to "cherish" their friendship. The 50-year-old Friends star said that she still considers her previous relationship "successful."

"Sure, there were bumps, and not every moment felt fantastic, obviously, but at the end of it, this is our one life, and I would not stay in a situation out of fear," Jennifer said to Elle when asked about her former marriages, as per Refinery29. "Fear of being alone. Fear of not being able to survive. To stay in a marriage based on fear feels like you're doing your one life a disservice," the ex-ladylove of Justin Theroux added.

Though Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux have been living separately for quite some time now, rumors continue to hound their estranged marriage. Recent reports claimed that Jennifer is "freaked out" after learning that her former lover and Selena Gomez have a "thing." National Enquirer claimed that Justin and Selena's friendship does not sit well with Brad Pitt's ex-wife.

The outlet even cited an unnamed tipster, who claimed that "Jennifer finds Justin's 'creeping on' Selena unsettling because of the age difference." However, the Leftovers star, for his part, reportedly, does not see anything weird about his friendship with the ex-girlfriend of Justin Bieber. The same source said that Justin Theroux has been supporting Selena since the "Sorry" singer got engaged to Hailey Baldwin.

However, Gossip Cop was quick to debunk these claims and stated that the publication failed to prove that Jennifer Aniston is, indeed, "freaked out" with the friendship of Justin Theroux and Selena Gomez. It added that National Enquirer had mixed several issues "to create a non-linear and nonsensical story" about the former A-list couple.

Gossip Cop even contacted a representative of Jennifer Aniston to verify if these reports are true. However, the insider stated that Justin Theroux and Selena Gomez's friendship neither "hurt," "threatened," nor "upset" the former wife of Brad Pitt. The tipster even called the claims "silly" and, obviously, fake and fabricated.

Hence, avid followers of Brad Pitt's ex-ladylove, the Leftovers star, and Selena Gomez should take these rumors with a grain of salt until. Stay tuned to Business Times for the latest news and updates about Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux.
