JENNIFER Aniston and Brad Pitt’s mutual friends are convinced they’re getting back together – and claim his family would "love it" if they did.

“All of Jen’s friends always loved Brad and see him as a guy who messed up,” said the insider.

“It’s been 20 years and they’ve both grown up a lot – he’s sober now and is a truly good guy. Everyone would love to see them back together. The timing just seems right – they’re both single and have so much in common.

“Brad’s mom Jane always loved Jen, and carried on seeing and speaking to her even after the divorce. His whole family adored her.”

After the former couple’s reunion at the SAG Awards earlier this week – where they held hands and kissed, before Brad gasped "wow" as he watched his ex wife’s winners speech from backstage – Jen’s best friend Courteney Cox fuelled rumours further.

The Friends star liked several Instagram comments online about Brad and Jen – including one that read “they still love each other, no doubt”.

The source added: “Courteney and Jen are so tight – she wouldn’t do that if she thought Jen would disapprove.

“Everyone is convinced Brad and Jen are more than just friends, and these meet ups are laying the groundwork for something more serious – possibly even getting back together.

“They know the public would love them to reunite – and everyone thinks it will happen.”
