Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux first met, thanks to their mutual pal Ben Stiller. According to Us Weekly, the Zoolander star introduced the two in 2007 while Aniston was visiting the set of Tropic Thunder, which Theroux co-wrote. Despite the introduction, Aniston and Theroux didn't start dating until they reconnected on the set of 2012's Wanderlust, in which they co-starred.

Both remained close with Stiller, and Aniston and Theroux honored their pal at the 26th American Cinematheque Award Gala in 2012. Aniston made sure to get in a few zingers while honoring Stiller from the stage. Before presenting a video montage of Stiller's on-screen romances, she joked, "Ben makes sexy smart — I mean smart sexy. His package is surprisingly large. Very expansive, and its lasting power speaks for itself."

Aniston's funny speech was one of the highlights of the night and a great example of how the two have supported each other over the years. As for Aniston and Theroux, the pair split in 2018, but maintained "deep respect and love" between them.
