The Leftovers alum, who married Aniston in 2015 after four years of dating, opened up about their relationship in April after splitting in September 2018.
“I would say we’ve remained friends,” Theroux said in the cover story for Esquire‘s April/May 2021 issue. “We don’t talk every day, but we call each other. We FaceTime. We text. Like it or not, we didn’t have that dramatic split, and we love each other.”

The Zoolander 2 writer, who first met the Cake actress in 2007 on the set of Tropic Thunder before reuniting to film 2012’s Wanderlust, noted that the pair have a strong bond.
“I’m sincere when I say that I cherish our friendship. We can not be together and still bring each other joy and friendship,” he told the magazine. “Also, she makes me laugh very, very hard. She’s a hilarious person. It would be a loss if we weren’t in contact, for me personally. And I’d like to think the same for her.”
Theroux and Aniston have a history of singing each other’s praises in interviews and often post photos via social media in honor of each other’s birthdays.

“Happy birthday @jenniferaniston,” he captioned a black-and-white photo of Emmy winner at the time. “
you B!”
