VINCE VAUGHN is still great friends with ex-girlfriend JENNIFER ANISTON - and talks to her constantly.

The couple - who appeared together in 2006’s The Break Up - ended their year-and-a-half long relationship in December 2006, but remained pals following the split.

And Vaughn insists Aniston is still one of his closest friends, despite their romance not working out.

He tells Parade magazine, "I have such a great friendship with Jennifer.

Really, I still talk to her constantly. I have a real, genuine connection with Jen. And I have a real appreciation of her. That continues to this day." Vaughn adds he likes to keep his love life private, adding, "I always try to keep my relationships quiet and my work at the forefront. I haven’t been someone to go and talk about those things, because that’s not what I want to be known for.

"In regular life, people date, and sometimes it works out, and sometimes it doesn’t. We get more attention because we’re more known."
