Aniston Will 'Always Love Pitt'

The former Friends star split from Pitt in 2005, amid rumours of an affair with his Mr. and Mrs. Smith co-star Angelina Jolie - who he went on to start a family with.

But even though she found the break up incredibly painful, Aniston admits she looks back on her failed marriage with fond memories.

She tells Britain's Hello magazine, "I don't regret any of that time with Brad and I'm not here to beat myself up about it. They were seven very intense years together and it was beautiful and complicated.

"I will love Brad for the rest of my life - you can't take away good memories. Were there times when I had a little 'pity party' for myself? Of course. Who hasn't done that?"

And the actress - who is now dating rocker John Mayer - hopes to eventually rebuild her friendship with her former partner.

She adds, "I really do hope that we'll be good friends again at some point."
