Hollywood Celebrity Exes Who Worked Together Post Breakup: From Lili Reinhart-Cole Sprouse to Blake Lively-Penn Badgley
When two actors play couples onscreen and share kisses or heartfelt moments, they often fall in love in real life too. And when things start to go South and they unravel that the spark between them has died, or worse, never existed, the two take the difficult decision of breaking up. But when they have to continue to work together and be on the same set, it can get difficult. That's when their true professionalism is tested. Several actors have continued to work together in films and TV shows despite not being able to look eye to eye in real life. Here are 10 Hollywood exes who shared screen space despite parting ways and calling it quits. Cameron Diaz and Justin Timberlake Relationship Timeline: 2003 to 2007 Worked Together On: Bad Teacher Diaz and Timberlake first met at the Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards in 2003, and soon rumors of romance between the two started swirling.

"No one's thinking to themselves, 'That was easy,' because it wasn't. I'm sure people will analyze every movement and every detail. And you know what? Let them," she told Cosmo at the time.

It's admirable how these stars have shown emotional maturity by staying friendly despite nasty breakups and doing justice to their jobs.

Brad Pitt Comments On Ines De Ramon Relationship
Since his split from Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt has been incredibly private about his personal life. And, for that reason, you may not even know that he's been in a relationship for over two and a half years. For context, Brad was first linked with Ines de Ramon in 2022, shortly after she separated from her ex-husband, The Vampire Diaries star, Paul Wesley. Ines is 32 and is believed to work in the jewelry industry. Ines and Brad made their big red carpet debut at the Venice Film Festival last September, but other than that, we haven't really seen or heard a huge amount about them. It's been reported that Brad is 'serious' about the relationship and that they moved in together last year, so, yeah. Fast forward to today, and the Oscar-winner made an incredibly rare comment about the romance — and whether or not their first public appearance together at the Formula 1 British Grand Prix in 2024 was strategically planned. For context, Brad is currently promoting the upcoming F1 movie, which was shot at actual Formula 1 races over the past two years. During a brand new profile with GQ, Brad was asked whether it was a deliberate choice for him and Ines to make their first joint appearance at an F1 race to generate buzz around the movie. 'No, dude, it's not that calculated,' the 61-year-old replied, before giving his honest thoughts on orchestrated PR moves in relationships. 'If you're living, oh my God, how exhausting would that be?' he said. 'If you're living with making those kinds of calculations? No, life just evolves. Relationships evolve.' Well, there you have it. I wonder if we'll see these two take to the red carpet again as the F1 promo tour continues.

Brad Pitt breaks silence on divorce from ex-wife Angelina Jolie as he dispells major rumour about girlfriend Ines de Ramon
Brad Pitt has broken his silence on his divorce from his ex-wife Angelina Jolie as he dispelled a major rumour about his girlfriend Ines de Ramon. On Wednesday, the 61-year-old Fight Club actor spoke to GQ magazine ahead of his forthcoming racing film F1. In his interview, Pitt appeared to downplay the end of Brangelina and said their demise was not "major". "No, I don't think it was that major of a thing," he said. "Just something coming to fruition. Legally." Pitt opened up about the struggles of his high-profile relationships being the subject of ruthless media attention for three decades, including his 12-year relationship with Jolie. 'My personal life is always in the news. It's been in the news for 30 years, bro. Or some version of my personal life, let's put it that way," he said. The Once Upon a Time in Hollywood actor said "always deal(ing)" with the attention has been an "annoyance" of "different degrees." Despite the public exposure which he described as a "nagging time," Pitt said his life now mostly feels "fairly contained." He said he felt "warm and secure" with his friends, family and loved ones, but made no direct mention of his six children. Pitt and Jolie reached a divorce settlement in December following eight years of bitter legal battles over custody of their children and finances. The Benjamin Button star began dating 32-year-old de Ramon, a jewellery designer, in 2022. The couple attended the 2024 British Grand Prix together. Pitt denied the move was a stunt to garner publicity for his forthcoming racing movie, telling GQ it was "not that calculated". He said making such calculations would be "exhausting" and "life just evolves. Relationships evolve." De Ramon divorced The Vampire Diaries star Paul Wesley after three years of marriage last November. The pair don't share any children. Pitt and Jolie meanwhile share Maddox, 23, Pax, 21, Zahara, 20, Shiloh, 19, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 16. During their lengthy divorce proceedings, four of their six children became adults, which rendered the need for a custody agreement for them. Knox and Vivienne are the only two minors. The initial judge in their lawsuit, along with federal and Los Angeles County officials, granted Pitt equal custody of the children. A key point in the case was Jolie's sale of the couple's French winery Château Miraval to a third party. Pitt said her move was "vindictive" and sued her over it. Jolie filed a countersuit in which she alleged the actor psychically and verbally abused her and their children on a plane in 2016. Pitt strongly denied the allegations and said they were "another rehash that only harms the family". However, in 2017, he told GQ magazine he had a drinking problem at the time of the alleged incident but was sober and attending therapy. It's unclear what Pitt's relationship with his children is like, but there are major signs suggesting he's estranged from them. In January, People Magazine reported Pitt had minimal contact with the twins while he was in the throes of filming F1. According to sources, he has "virtually no contact" with his older adult children who wanted Jolie to "defend herself" during their divorce. Then months ago, Zahara officially dropped her father's surname and became Zahara Jolie instead of Zahara Jolie-Pitt. Shiloh quickly followed her sister and requested a legal name change to Shiloh Jolie as opposed to Shiloh Jolie-Pitt.
