Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux have split after two years of marriage. Announcing the sad news via a statement the handsome pair revealed that the break up was "mutual and lovingly made at the end of last year."

The couple tied the knot in secret on 5 August 2015, with many of their 70 plus guests unaware of the occasion until that day.  They exchanged vows at their beautiful Bel Air mansion, almost three years after their engagement.

Here we take a look back at some of their sweetest moments...

It wasn't until October 2015 that the newlyweds made their red carpet debut as Mr and Mrs. Jennifer joined her husband at the premiere of his show The Leftovers in Austin, Texas.

Earlier in the week the actor said that marriage felt "lovely and wonderful". "Oh my god. It's really nice to say 'my wife'," he told Good Morning America. "I'm not [used to saying wife]. I don't want to get used to it for a while. It's nice to drop the fiancée moniker."

"I didn't have any expectation of how it would feel. I just knew I wanted to do it," he added.

They weren't just picture perfect on the red carpet. When Jennifer and Justin made low-key outings, they always shared that endearing look of love.

When asked how he keept his wife happy, Justin revealed: "[I tell her] she's beautiful. Not to be corny but I constantly say that."

Laughter played a big part in their relationship. "It's a laugh a minute," Justin told Loaded. "When we get on a run, it’s pretty fun. There's been a couple of times when she has brought me to my knees laughing and me her."

"Literally, there was one time and she did something so funny and I was literally on my knees. So yeah, it's a fun house," he said.

And the Cake star felt the same way when she was asked about her husband at their year anniversary.  

"I'm lucky because Justin is the funniest person I've met, and we make each other laugh," Jennifer told Harper's Bazaar. "Laughter is one of the great keys to staying youthful."

Their busy schedules often kept them apart, with Justin filming in a different city from his wife. But the married couple always tried to make sure to support each other at important events.

At the Critics' Choice Awards in January 2016, both Jennifer and her husband of five months were nominated.

The actress was up for a gong for her star-making role as Rachel in Friends, which was nominated in the Most Bingeworthy Fan-Voted Award category.

Justin, meanwhile, was up for Best Actor for his role in The Leftovers. Neither went home with a trophy, but the newlyweds had each other.

One of the highlights of Jennifer's career was being honoured with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in February 2012.

Beaming with pride, Justin was seated next to Jennifer's father. The couple weren't shy about showing their affection and sweetly shared a kiss.

Their love story took them to all corners of the world. A year into their relationship, Justin whisked his then-girlfriend off on a romantic break to Paris.

A couple of months later in August 2012, they were engaged. Justin popped the question with an eye-popping eight-carat rock, with Jennifer saying that her hubby-to-be "just knows what I like".

While Justin joined Instagram at the end of 2016, Jennifer has yet to open any social media accounts. Instead, she prefers to keep her private life out of the public eye.

Justin occasionally surprised followers with snaps of his wife. To mark their first Christmas together as Mr and Mrs, the actor shared this sweet photo of the couple on holiday.

Even after a loved-up first year of marriage, Jennifer admitted that it still feelt the same as when she first started dating Justin in 2011.

"Married life is so normal and fun and not much different," she said. "We felt married for so long."
