But others believe that Aniston shouldn't get back together with Pitt, since it has been speculated that Pitt cheated on Aniston with Jolie.

Please do not subject us to stories that Jennifer Aniston is getting back together with Brad Pitt.
Everyone deserves a break while dealing with the end of a marriage.

And others think that the more important thing is Aniston being with someone who truly appreciates her.
But honestly, if Brad Pitt and Justin Theroux couldn’t appreciate Jennifer Aniston, what am I supposed to expect from regular man? pic.twitter.com/5DsbpOatRV

Aniston and Pitt's history dates back to the early 2000s, when they were a huge power couple in Hollywood.
They were married from 2000 to 2005, and many people are under the impression that his involvement with Angelina Jolie in the 2005 movie "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" is one of the reasons why the couple split.
Pitt and Jolie then went public with their relationship the following year and got married in 2014. In 2016, Jolie filed for divorce from Pitt.
