Before she was one-half of America's power couple or engaged to Justin Theroux, Jennifer Aniston reportedly had a "brief, torrid" fling with her "Ferris Bueller" costar Charlie Schlatter.
Jim Nelson, editor-in-chief of GQ, offered up this little gossip tidbit in a piece on bosses in the magazine's May issue. He reportedly served as a writer's assistant on the short-lived '90s "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" TV spinoff, starring Aniston as sister Jeannie Bueller to Schlatter's titular character.
"To Aniston worshippers, I can offer little dirt. She was lovely, kept to herself on the set, smoldering a bit like her outraged character, 17-year-old Jeannie Bueller," Nelson wrote.

"She was a brunette then, with none of Rachel Green's bob or self-possession. Oh, and there's this. GQ can exclusively report that everyone on set thought she was hot, including Schlatter, with whom she had a brief, torrid romance — while playing, it must be said, his older sister. To we immaturions on the show, this seemed extra-hot. Like performative incest."
The now-45-year-old, of course, went on to star for 10 seasons on NBC's "Friends" and become a major movie star. She was married to Brad Pitt for five years and is now engaged to Theroux, whom she met on the set of their 2012 film, "Wanderlust."
Before "Ferris Bueller," Schlatter starred opposite George Burns in the big-screen comedy "18 Again!" After the show wrapped, he appeared on the Dick Van Dyke series "Diagnosis: Murder" for five seasons.
He married wife Colleen Gunderson in 1994.
