A romance based on friendship. Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux called it quits in 2018, but their respectful post-split relationship still makes them #CoupleGoals. The duo first met in 2007 on the set of Tropic Thunder but only started dating in 2011, when they starred in the movie Wanderlust alongside Paul Rudd and Kathryn Hahn. “I thought he was so nice and very nice,” the Friends alum told PopSugar in 2012, recalling the first time she met her future husband. “But I remember thinking he was very dark. At first you think he might be like a serial killer, but he’s actually the nicest person in the world.” The Mulholland Drive star, for her part, had to quickly learn to cope with Aniston’s level of fame. Although he was a well-known actor and screenwriter when they started dating, he wasn’t as recognizable as the woman who had played Rachel Green for 10 years. “It’s kind of like going to a slightly different altitude,” he told GQ of their relationship in 2013. The couple got engaged in 2012 after a year of dating, but waited three years to get married. “We just want to do it when it’s perfect, and we’re not in a rush, and nobody’s rushing out of a job or rushing into a job,” the Morning Show actress told The Associated Press. in July 2013. “And, you know, we already feel married.” When they finally walked down the aisle in August 2015, they did it exactly their way.

Instead, guests got to watch the happy couple say their vows. “Marriage makes the little things much smaller and the big things small,” the Girl on the Train actor told Rhapsody magazine in July 2017. “You have an ally. It’s nice to have someone to support you.
