Brad Pitt's astonishing life story!
He had money, fame, and a wife who loved him, but Brad decided to put an end to his marriage to Jennifer, all because of Angelina Jolie.
He had money, fame, and a wife who loved him, but that was not enough for him. Brad Pitt decided to put an end to his marriage to Jennifer Aniston in 2005, all because of Angelina Jolie. Although they seemed happy and in love, the truth quickly became completely different.
After they got twins, things went wrong, and Brad and Angelina experienced a breakdown in love. Although 7 years have passed since the filing for divorce, they are still seen exclusively in court and are fighting for custody of six children - Maddox (20), Pax (18), Zahara (16), Shiloh (15), and thirteen-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne.
Their divorce lawsuit threatens to become the longest in Hollywood history.
Angelina does not want to allow her children to see her father, and according to foreign media, the children themselves do not want to see him because they believe that he was not a good father.
And here's how it all started. We bring you the life story of Brad Pitt:
Brad Pitt was born on December 18, 1963, in Oklahoma, as the oldest child in the family. His father, William Alvin Pitt, worked as a truck driver for thirty years, while his mother, Jane Etta, was a school counselor.
Very soon after his birth, the family moved to Springfield, Missouri, where he and his younger brother Doug and sister Julie Neal enjoyed an idyllic childhood filled with joy and play. His parents tried to be a great support in their children's lives, but religion was also very important in Brad's upbringing. Every Sunday, he went to church to sing in the choir, and even then, people noticed that he was special. His appearance, face, and voice were so dominant that all eyes were always on him. Even as a child, he was aware that his physical appearance opened many doors, but at the same time he was very worried about it.
In high school, he showed interest in all fields. He was extremely active as a member of the swimming team, golf club, and drama section. He played in many school plays but did not show a desire for leadership. He never played the main roles, he was careful and tried more to understand the core of acting than to impose himself with a role. His father often warned him about that, emphasizing that the lack of focus can stand in the way of the talent he possesses.
After graduating from high school in 1982, he decided to stay near Missouri and enroll in journalism at Columbia University, but after a few years, he began to question himself, wanting to experience much more than what his parents imposed on him.
Two weeks before graduation, he realized that such a life would still be monotonous for him, so he decided to make some radical changes. Without much thought, he left college, packed up, and in 1987 set out for Hollywood.
LIFE ON THE EDGE
The grayness and depression of Los Angeles were definitely not what he expected. At first, he did not have an apartment, slept in a car, ate at McDonald's. He had only $ 325 in his pocket and urgently needed a source of income. He did pretty weird jobs, even as a stripper’s driver.
One of those strippers occasionally got minor roles in the film, so she suggested to him a great acting teacher, Roy London, who was working with Michelle Pfeiffer and Sharon Stone at the time. For the next six years, Brad became acquainted with the secrets of the seventh art, and he used the first opportunity to audition and see what it looks like. He appeared uninterested and relaxed just to watch the actors from the sidelines and read the role with the woman who was really auditioning. However, the agent noticed him and immediately wanted to hire him.
Roy London suggested that he appear on television in one of the series, in order to be noticed. With the role of a naughty but handsome guy in the "Dallas" series, everything finally started. Then he caught the eye of the leaders of the film industry, but he had a long way to go.
LOVERS IN FILM AND IN LIFE
He caught the eye not only of the managers but also of the actresses with whom he collaborated. He started a relationship with his partner from the "Dallas" series, Shalane McCall, but it was very short.
A year later, when he got a role in the film "Head of the Class", he attracted the attention of his colleague Robin Givens. Although she was in love with Mike Tyson, Brad did not hesitate to visit her in their house together. However, one evening Tyson found him in his home and a conflict ensued. Brad was beaten, and the incident was found in all the tabloids in a short time.
This unpleasant event increased interest in his private life, so in order to return the focus to acting, he accepted the role in the series "Too Young to Die", in which he played the role of a psychopath who chases fans. His partner was a sixteen-year-old colleague, Juliette Lewis, with whom he started a relationship, regardless of the decade of the age difference. What defined them as a couple, apart from the chemistry that was noticed, was their desire to succeed in acting. However, they soon broke up.
LIFE TURNOVER
It was only after eight years in Hollywood that Brad earned the respect of the film industry. He felt that the time had come for his career to move to the next level. He finally got the opportunity to show his talent in a bigger and more demanding role, in the high-budget film “Interview with the Vampire”, where he starred with the then already famous Tom Cruise. Playing a depressing and dark role, he became like that himself. Although it was one of his most demanding roles, he was proud of himself and, as he said at the time, he felt as if he had climbed Mount Everest. However, it was only when he appeared in the film “Legends of the fall” that his life changed overnight. He could no longer move freely because the paparazzi were constantly following him.
After these two successful films, he decided to wait for a project that he would be able to come to terms with and chose the film “Seven” from 1995. His partner was the famous actress Gwyneth Paltrow. The great passion between the two of them was visible outside the film, so that same year they revealed their relationship.
Their love was under the watchful eye of the public. In December 1995, after a three-year relationship, he proposed to his colleague Gwyneth Paltrow. It seemed that his life at the age of only 33 was simply perfect, but as it always happens, something else was cooking under the surface.
UNEXPECTED FALL
When one door opens, the other closes, so in the middle of their career, the engagement with Gwyneth was terminated because they differed in all segments of life. Brad's emotional decline is also reflected in his work, so he had several bad roles after that.
THE GOLDEN COUPLE OF HOLLYWOOD
And then came the brighter moments, both in business and in love. At the beginning of 2000, he met the actress Jennifer Aniston, and since they were both similar in character, ambitious and persistent, they embarked on a romance. Instructed by previous experience, they declined to comment on any speculation about their relationship. They traveled around Europe and Africa, enjoyed each other, admired the architecture, and on July 27, 2000, they announced a wedding that took place two days later. When he decided to marry Jennifer, he invited Gwyneth to tell her in person, which speaks volumes about the type of man he is.
The wedding cost about a million dollars. With fireworks, 50,000 flowers, and many celebrities in Malibu, they said a fateful yes at a private ceremony. The wedding was closed to the public, and even the guests signed secrecy agreements. When he married Jennifer, Brad took a two-year vacation to indulge in the charms of marriage.
At the peak of his career and marriage with the girl of his dreams, he faced a new turning point. In one of the interviews, he said that their marriage is an experiment, and if they notice that it doesn't work, they will divorce without an argument. In early January 2005, Brad and Jennifer announced their divorce after four years of living together.
