Brad Pitt revealed some shocking information about his marriage to actress Jennifer Aniston, telling Esquire magazine he was on drugs and felt as though he was “a drifter.” The Academy Award nominated actor revealed that his relationship with longtime partner Angelina Jolie has changed his perspective on life.
“For a long time I thought I did too much damage – drug damage. I was a bit of a drifter. A guy who felt he grew up in something of a vacuum and wanted to see things, wanted to be inspired. I followed that other thing. I spent years f***ing off,” Pitt confessed in his interview with Esquire as quoted by Fox News. “But then I got burnt out and felt that I was wasting my opportunity. It was a conscious change… This was about a decade ago. It was an epiphany.”
Pitt and Aniston were married from 2000-2005. The actor previously slammed his marriage to the Horrible Bosses actress, but later stated his statements were taken out of context confessing that Aniston is a “wonderful” person and a “friend,” Fox notes.
Now the Moneyball actor he “just haven’t known life to be any happier.”
Pitt is sharing his life with Angelina Jolie, whom he has six children with. “I always thought that if I wanted to do a family, I wanted to do it big,” he confesses. “I wanted there to be chaos in the house ... there's constant chatter in our house, whether it's giggling or screaming or crying or banging.”
