Their affectionate reunion sent fans wild 15 years after their divorce when Brad left Jennifer shortly after working on a film with his now ex-wife Angelina Jolie.

Fans are hopeful the pair are back together for good and likened the situation to Ross and Rachel getting back together.

In Friends, Ross slept with someone else when he thought his relationship with Rachel was over – but she claimed they were “on a break”.

One said: “PLOT TWIST: What if Brad and Jen were just on a break all this time? #SAGAwards.”

Another added: “Brad and jen are ross and rachel maybe they were on a break!!!! When angelina came in the picture.”

Someone else said: “Ok I know Jen deserves way better cuz of what Brad did to her but wouldn’t it be the biggest twist of they got back together and then stayed together?!”

Others were less happy about the idea they would become a couple again after rumours he cheated on Jen with Angelina.

One said: “I don’t understand the obsession with Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt. The guy cheated publicly and humiliated her, yet ppl are still out here wanting them to get back together. Jen deserves so much better. #SAGAwards.”

Another added: “I can’t believe how everyone is rooting for Brad and Jen to get back together when he literally publicly DUMPED HER for someone else.”

The two actors were photographed holding hands and sharing an embrace after they both took home trophies last night.

Brad said in his acceptance that he would be putting a photo of his new Screen Actor’s Guild Award on his Tinder profile.

Jennifer could be seen smiling along with her ex-husband’s jokes, even when he referenced his wife troubles.

“This role was a bit of a stretch. Guy who gets high, takes his shirt off, doesn’t get along with his wife,” said Brad, who won for Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.

That is when the camera panned to show his ex Jennifer, who had a big smile on her face.

Brad was later seen standing backstage and looking on as Jennifer won her first SAG Award in over 20 years.

Jennifer and Brad were married for five years, tying the knot two years after they met in 1998.

Their split was reportedly caused by Brad’s relationship with Angelina Jolie, who he went on to marry in 2014 before splitting with the actress last year.

Jennifer later addressed her past when picking up the prize for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Drama Series for her work in The Morning Show.

The actress said that she found playing someone going through an emotional breakdown for seven months therapeutic, noting that is helped her deal with ‘the past 20 years.’

None of the cameras panned to Brad at that moment, who was presumably backstage.

Jennifer was also not the only ex of Brad’s in the audience, with Christina Applegate also in attendance after being nominated for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Comedy Series for her work in Dead to Me.
