20 Celeb Pairs Who Stayed Friends Despite Dating the Same Person

Aniston and Pitt had started dating in 1998, were engaged by 1999, married in 2000, and split in 2005; years later, some fans are still waiting for a reunion. But before this fan-favorite romance kicked off, Paltrow previously dated the actor from 1994 to 1997, and was even engaged to him in 1996.

Jen had high praise for Paltrow’s style and personality in a 2014 interview with Allure: “I’ve known her a long time. That woman has got style to the moon and back. Chic, effortless, gorgeous. This sums us up. Look, I’m in a T-shirt, jeans, and 400-year-old shoes, and this one is just, like, to a T. She’s always been sweet to me.”

The actress was one of the many stars attending Paltrow’s engagement party (to Brad Falchuk) this weekend in LA.
