Jennifer Aniston made no secret of how much pain she was in when her marriage to Brad Pitt ended, telling Vanity Fair shortly after the split that she was “shocked” and experienced moments of “anger, of hurt, of embarrassment” when she saw pictures of him and Angelina Jolie together.

And just last year, the Morning Show star revisited that painful period of her life, telling the same magazine: “It’s a shame that it had to happen, but it happened. And boy did I take it personally.” And that’s not all she has said on the matter…

Jennifer Aniston Reportedly Felt Brad Pitt And Angelina Jolie's Split Was 'Karma'

Although the Friends alum and the Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood actor are reportedly in a much better place today – some might even go as far as saying they're friendly, with Pitt even commenting on her relationship with Jim Curtis – that wasn't always the case.

According to a resurfaced report, the Murder Mystery 2 actress was somewhat glad when she heard the news that Pitt and Jolie were splitting, reportedly saying that their messy breakup was "karma" because of what they had put her through all those years earlier.

"Yeah, that's karma for you!" a resurfaced report from Us Weekly claimed Aniston said to a friend while discussing Brangelina's 2016 split. The magazine went on to claim that Aniston "admittedly feels sort of satisfied about Brad and Angelina's split."

Why Jennifer Aniston Never Thought Brangelina Would Last

The LolaVie mogul reportedly always felt that despite Brad and Angelina having six children together, and despite believing that the Fight Club actor really did love the Maria star at one point, the couple would eventually split up...

"She didn't feel that Angelina was truly the one who Brad was meant to stay with," the insider dished, adding: "She always felt that Angelina was too complex for him. He's a pretty simple guy."

Another source added that despite everything, "Jen does wish Brad luck and the best." They continued: "Jen does not hold on to any negativity from her marriage to Brad. She feels like she's happy, and she wants him to be happy too."
