In a candid new interview with Vanity Fair, Jennifer Aniston revisits one of the most challenging chapters of her life—the media frenzy surrounding her divorce from Brad Pitt in 2005. Looking back, she called that period “the love triangle” years, acknowledging the intense scrutiny she faced as “such juicy reading for people.” She admitted taking the tabloid invasion deeply personally, describing it as a deeply “vulnerable time”.
Aniston also reflected on her then‑recent Vanity Fair interview, calling it “jarring” and a moment she hasn’t revisited until now.
Despite the emotional weight of that period, she demonstrated remarkable resilience. As she put it, her personal mantra became: “Just pick yourself up by the bootstraps and keep on walking, girl.”
Now at age 56, Aniston continues to navigate fame with wisdom and grace. She describes that era as painful yet formative, reminding us that behind the headlines stands a human being striving to grow through adversity. Her story is one of recovery, resilience, and reclamation of her narrative.
