Yesterday the press got a hold of an interview Brad Pitt gave Parade Magazine. In the article Brad opened up about his marriage to Jennifer Aniston – and basically how he’s so much happier and fulfilled with Angelina Jolie. He claimed to have been “pretending” in his marriage with Jen. Here’s a recap of what he said:
“I spent the ‘90s trying to hide out, trying to duck the full celebrity cacophony. I started to get sick of myself sitting on a couch, holding a joint, hiding out. It started feeling pathetic. It became very clear to me that I was intent on trying to find a movie about an interesting life, but I wasn’t living an interesting life myself,” he continues. “I think that my marriage had something to do with it. Trying to pretend the marriage was something that it wasn’t.”
“I put much more emphasis on being a satisfied man. I’m satisfied with making true choices and finding the woman I love, Angie, and building a family that I love so much. A family is a risky venture, because the greater the love, the greater the loss. … That’s the trade-off. But I’ll take it all.”
“One of the greatest, smartest things I ever did was give my kids Angie as their mom,” he tells Parade. “She is such a great mom. Oh, man, I’m so happy to have her.”
Well, this morning Brad Pitt released a statement on the interview, claiming he never meant to insult anyone. He was just giving his own feelings on the matter of his first marriage.
“It grieves me that this was interpreted this way. Jen is an incredibly giving, loving, and hilarious woman who remains my friend. It is an important relationship I value greatly. The point I was trying to make is not that Jen was dull, but that I was becoming dull to myself — and that, I am responsible for,” Pitt said in the statement.
Do you think that Brad and Jen really truly are great friends? I find that so strange! How could Jen be friends with him!? I understand having a respect for someone, but c’mon, really?
And also – I think Brad has the right to talk about whatever he wants – but c’mon. Isn’t it like beating a dead horse at this point? He has so much more to talk about. I haven’t heard Jen bring it up in a while. It’s called MOVING ON PEOPLE.
