LOS ANGELES, Sept. 7 (UPI) -- Hollywood actor Brad Pitt said he is still friends with his ex-wife, Jennifer Aniston, People.com has reported.
Pitt and Aniston ended their 4 1/2-year marriage in 2005.
"Jen and I still maintain a deep friendship and have a lot of life together that isn't erased in any way," Pitt told V magazine.
"I don't know how better to have handled (the break-up.) My view was, this was no one's business in the end," he said. "The thing guiding me then was, you don't know how many days you have, and you need life to be everything you need it to be."
Pitt said he and Aniston tried their best to ignore the media circus that frequently followed them.
"The most important thing about that time was for Jen and me to figure out if... we didn't want to go on without any outside influence. Is this where we got off? Have we taken this as far as we wanted to go?"
He told V magazine, "Those questions had to be answered before an attraction to (Angelina Jolie) could be answered."
