Jennifer Aniston says that she forgives her ex-husband Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie for carrying on a secret romance as that ultimately separated Aniston and Pitt.

Aniston, 45, didn’t specifically mention Pitt, 50, but insisted that she holds no grudges and is a forgiving person.

“I absolutely am. I think it’s extremely important to forgive. Otherwise it just builds up like toxic waste. There’s nothing worse than holding a grudge,” she told Harper’s Bazaar.

“Listen, people can do unforgivable things, but you have to let it go and say, ‘Look, we’re all human beings. We make mistakes.’ To hold any kind of resentment is like taking rat poison and waiting for the rat to die.”

Aniston also talked about her fiance Justin Theroux, saying the 43-year-old is her creative crush.

“Not only is he a great actor but he’s one of the best comedy writers out there. And he directs and paints murals,” she said, laughing.

“And I just think it’s so attractive to be that good at so many things and to have no ego. He’s one of the most humble, decent human beings. He’s not an ass. He’s not like some of our friends who are young and up-and-coming and they hit celebrity, and all of a sudden you’re like, ‘Oh! You’re different. Now you don’t say hi to people?’ ”
