"He would have been the one," Aniston said.

"But I was 25 and stupid. He must have sent me Justin to make up for it all," she continued.

That five-year relationship, however, ended in 1994. McDonald, who was a fixture on Broadway plays and on TV where he guest starred on various TV shows from the 1980s, eventually succumbed to brain cancer in 2007.

Aniston's revelation, however, did not sound so nice to McDonald's widow, who took to Facebook a heartfelt yet raging sentiments.

"Please respect our love and especially our Loss," Maraini-Melehi, who had since McDonald's passing had remarried, posted.

"The children lost their father. I lost my partner."

Maraini-Melehi was sorry for the actress because she did not "realize the treasure that was Daniel when she had the chance," and long before they knew each other.

Also, Maraini-Melehi aired the pain she felt after press seemingly praised her for showing off her sorrow over her losing him, when in fact, "she was not present during his long and difficult illness."

"That said perhaps Daniel's gift was to teach her how to love and appreciate Justin Theroux," she pointed out.

Aniston was previously married to Brad Pitt although that ended in divorce in 2006. She is now engaged to Theroux.

Maraini-Melehi and McDonald, meanwhile, had two children.

The widow also revealed that she contacted Aniston after McDonald's death to give her the photographs that he had when he and Aniston were still together.

"I never got an answer back from her," she said.
