- Exes Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston reunited backstage at the 26th annual Screen Actor Guilds Awards Sunday night.
- Pitt and Aniston both won awards in the evening.
- The two shared a very brief moment congratulating each other that was caught on camera.
- Fans eagerly reveled in the moment.
Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston were seen backstage at the 26th annual Screen Actor Guild Awards congratulating each other for their respective wins of the night.
Pitt won best supporting actor for his role in "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood." Aniston was genuinely surprised to beat out fellow nominees Elisabeth Moss ("The Handmaid's Tale"), Jodie Comer ("Killing Eve"), Helena Bonham Carter ("The Crown"), and Olivia Colman ("The Crown") for outstanding performance by a female actor in a drama series.
The small backstage moment was captured in four perfect photos.
If you're wondering what the two winners — who dated and were married for seven years — said to one another, it probably wasn't much more than smiles and congratulations. According to timestamps for the photos, the images were taken only tenths of a second apart.
Pitt and Aniston first ran into each other backstage where they were all smiles at 6:09:18 p.m. PT.
The photos of Aniston departing were both taken at 6:09:22 p.m. PT.
Aniston turned to leave and Pitt slowly let go of her wrist.
No matter how small the moment, fans couldn't get enough.
