As per reports, according to Justin Theroux, the friendship was shifting and changing and that part is something that the duo is very proud of.
Justin Theroux and 'Just Go With It' actress Jennifer Aniston started dating in 2011, after working together for the film 'Wanderlust'.

Here's the official statement released by Theroux and Jennifer Aniston through spokesman Stephen Huvane, to the Associated Press on February 15, 2018:
"In an effort to reduce any further speculation, we have decided to announce our separation. This decision was mutual and lovingly made at the end of last year. We are two best friends who have decided to part ways as a couple but look forward to continuing our cherished friendship. Normally we would do this privately, but given that the gossip industry cannot resist an opportunity to speculate and invent, we wanted to convey the truth directly. Whatever else is printed about us that is not directly from us, is someone else's fictional narrative. Above all, we are determined to maintain the deep respect and love that we have for one another."
