Angelina Jolie & Billy Bob Thornton Still Close

Hot on the heals of those Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston meeting rumours, comes news that Angelina Jolie still enjoys a close relationship with her ex-husband Billy Bob Thornton.

The Monster's Ball actor opens up about the couple's intense marriage in a new interview, in which he calls Angelina one of his "best friends".

He tells Parade, “I've never said anything but good things about any relationship I've had and, frankly, that's all I remember about them.

“I have the utmost respect for Angelina. She's a very sweet person, very talented and one of my best friends in the world.”
