Jennifer Aniston hasn’t wasted any time calling up old flame Bradley Cooper after his recent split from Renée Zellweger. “As soon as she heard he was back on the market, she picked up the phone and they reconnected — via assistants at first,” a source tells OK! in this week's all-new issue.

“When he ended up with Renée instead of her, Jen was blown away,” a source tells OK!. “She moved on, but there was always a part of her that still liked him.”Even before Renée put the brakes on Jen and Brad 2.0, the pair enjoyed “an easygoing friendship,” according to a second insider. And there’s no doubt Jen and Bradley, 36, have plenty in common.

Both have been married once — Jen to Brad Pitt and Bradley to actress Jennifer Esposito. They both attended school in NYC and now prefer to spend their time at home in L.A. with their dogs rather than hitting the Hollywood party scene.
