‘Big Mistake’: Brad Pitt Reflects On His Divorce From Angelina Jolie

Brad Pitt acknowledges that he “made mistakes” in his marriage to Angelina Jolie and talks about how giving up alcohol is assisting him in starting again and improving his bond with his children.

The actor is currently dealing with his marriage to Angelina Jolie, with its lessons and regrets. Brad “loved her and he understands he made mistakes,” a close friend told US Weekly. The actor is finally prepared to move on and concentrate on getting better after their breakup made headlines for years.

One of the most well-known celebrity couples in Hollywood started in 2004 with the story of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. Almost ten years later, in 2014, they were married in private. However, following the now-famous private plane incident in 2016, which apparently turned the tide on their relationship, things took a different turn.

In December 2024, the couple’s formal divorce was completed after they made their separation public that same year. According to the insider, the divorce turned into “a contentious, toxic situation” and “something that had been ruling his life for so many years.”

In addition to ending their marriage, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s divorce had a significant impact on Pitt’s connection with their six children. The insider claims that although Pitt is relieved to be over the divorce, it is still challenging because of his weak relationship with his children.

In the end, no one really emerged victorious, the source said, adding that Pitt’s greatest regret is that he was unable to mend that damaged connection. In spite of everything, Pitt reportedly does not blame Angelina Jolie for every detail that went wrong.

Pitt claims that quitting alcohol has given him more clarity and enabled him to make adjustments to become a better father, according to the insider who broke the news. The source said that since Pitt quit drinking, everything has changed for him.

But according to the insider, Angelina Jolie is still not ready to forgive him and probably never will, even if he has made an effort to better himself. Brad Pitt is resolved to move over his resentment and grow from his previous marriage and fatherhood blunders.
