If you've forgotten this lil' celeb tidbit, it's probably because neither of them have really talked much about their relationship since the split.

In a recent Esquire interview alongside fellow White House Plumbers co-star Woody Harrelson, Justin explained why he's kept mum on Jennifer.

"I want all of my relationships to exist within the four walls of whatever room we're in," he said. "And I’m not trying to be evasive, but I talk to Jen — I don’t talk about Jen."

"People will always want to gossip and say things, but you have to find that balance," Justin continued. "And having been in a public relationship, it’s much more fun not being in a public relationship."

"Me saying anything, even if it was something loving, it would just turn into a thing."

Let's go back to that quote where Justin says that he still talks to Jennifer — because the last time he spoke about their relationship, that's exactly what he revealed.

"We don't talk every day, but we call each other," he told Esquire (again!) at the time. "We FaceTime. We text."

"Like it or not, we didn't have that dramatic split, and we love each other. I'm sincere when I say that I cherish our friendship. We can not be together and still bring each other joy and friendship."
