What happened between Angelina and Billy Bob

The most famous love triangle in the world of show business was Angelina Jolie, Jennifer Aniston, and Brad Pitt, and it is little known that Angelina played her part in the divorce of another famous acting couple.

During the nineties and the beginning of the 2000s, Angelina Jolie attracted a lot of attention with her love life, because of her relationships with men, women, single, taken ... One of her most talked-about relationships is certainly the one with actor Billy Bob Thornton. The couple showed their love in an unusual way, but their most bizarre proof of affection was certainly wearing a bottle of the other's blood around their necks.

After only two months of the relationship, Angelina and Billy Bob got married in Las Vegas on May 5, 2000. Hollywood was shocked by the fact that they got married so suddenly and the fact that they did it despite the fact that the actor was engaged to another woman.

The couple met on the set, while Angelina was in a relationship with actor Timothy Hutton, and Billy Bob was engaged to actress Laura Dern. According to the media and as the actress herself admitted, Laura was shocked by the news that Thornton married a young colleague for an incredible reason: he didn't even bother to break up with her!

I left our house to work on the film, and while I was not there, my boyfriend got married and we never heard from each other again” - she revealed in an interview. – “It's like sudden death. There was no end or clarification for anyone.”
Thornton commented on the scandal in 2001, saying in an interview with the Guardian: “Others might say, ‘You left a girlfriend and married someone else.’ But it made me happy and it made someone else happy. I'm sorry it caused the pain.”

Angelina and Thornton announced in March 2002 that they would soon adopt a child from Cambodia, but they divorced three months later. As Jolie pointed out, she suddenly realized that they had both changed, and the actor once pointed out that he always had the feeling that he was not good enough for his wife. Laura Dern and Billy Bob Thornton saw each other for the first time since the shocking breakup many years later - on the red carpet at the 2017 Golden Globe Awards, when they visibly ignored each other.
