Jennifer Aniston and John Mayer have not rekindled their relationship, a rep for the actress has said.

US media reports this week claimed the couple, who earlier this year, had reunited after Mayer begged for a second chance.

OK! magazine reported that the former Friends actress had agreed to give their relationship another go but only if they took things “cooler”.

However, a spokesperson for Aniston had now denied the reports and claimed the pair are just “friends and have many other friends in common”.

Aniston and Mayer have dated on and off since they met for the first time in early 2008.
