Summary: Jennifer Aniston and her husband have separated.

Jennifer Aniston’s happily-ever-after with Justin Theroux has come to an end. The A-list couple announced their separation this week, and the two plan to file for divorce soon.

But what does the split mean for Aniston who is one of the highest paid actresses in the world? According to Fox News, she and her estranged screenwriter-actor beau had an ironclad prenuptial agreement, so it looks like she is going to come out unscathed in this breakup.

Forbes named Aniston the highest paid actress of 2017, thanks to her $25.5 million salary from the year before. Aniston is best-known for her starring role on the megahit “Friends” and since then, she has had a successful movie and television career.

Us Weekly wrote that Aniston and Theroux had “long and intense” talks to seal their prenup, and “it would be very hard for Justin to contest it.” Radar Online said that the couple had also protected their separate assets before they were married in 2015.

Aniston and Theroux met in 2011 and were engaged the next year. They finally married in 2015 at a super private ceremony at their Los Angeles home, and Fox News said that other A-listers such as Ellen Degeneres, Lisa Kudrow, and Chelsea Handler were in attendance.

Fox News said that the couple were last seen on a romantic getaway with actor Jason Bateman and his partner Amanda Anka. The news outlet said that the vacation appeared to be a last-ditch effort to save their marriage, but it ultimately did not work out.

Aniston, who was previously married to Brad Pitt, was also photographed on vacation with Pitt before the two separated. That union reportedly ended because Pitt had feelings for actress Angelina Jolie, who he met on the set of “Mr. and Mrs. Smith.” Pitt and Jolie eventually married, and they are now separated.

Aniston reportedly is worth $220 million while Theroux has $20 million of his own money. He has written hit movies such as “Tropic Thunder” and “Zoolander 2,” and he is currently starring on HBO’s series “The Leftovers.”

Aniston and Theroux released a statement on Thursday that they had separated.

“In an effort to reduce any further speculation, we have decided to announce our separation. This decision was mutual and lovingly made at the end of last year. We are two best friends who have decided to part ways as a couple, but look forward to continuing our cherished friendship,” the statement said.
