There was only one real winner this awards season: step forward Brad Pitt. Not only did Hollywood’s golden boy get his first Oscar, capping off a winning streak that’s seen him take home every major prize for his supporting role in Once Upon A Time in Hollywood, he also got the girl. Not just any girl, but Jennifer blinking Aniston, his one true love (don’t fight us on this), righting a wrong that started 15 years ago when they split.
According to insiders, the former married couple are eager to see where their fledgling reunion might lead them, and now that the Oscar’s in the bag, they have the space to do just that…starting with a very private getaway.
“Brad and Jen have a secret date set to celebrate his Oscar win,” says an insider close to the reunited exes, who hit headlines worldwide last month, after being snapped embracing at the SAG Awards.
