Brad Pitt Reveals Real Reason Behind Split From Angelina Jolie


Brad Pitt has opened up for the first time about his divorce from Angelina Jolie, since the shocking news was made public, admitting the reason behind the divorce was self-inflicted, mainly due to heavy drinking.

“I hit the lottery and I still would waste my time on those hollow pursuits,” he revealed in an interview with GQ Style.

“I mean, we have a winery. I enjoy wine very, very much, but I just ran it to the ground. I had to step away for a minute,” he said.

“And truthfully I could drink a Russian under the table with his own vodka. I was a professional … I mean I stopped everything except boozing when I started my family. But even this last year, you know — things I wasn’t dealing with. I was boozing too much. It’s just become a problem.”

The star goes on to reveal it’s been “half a year” since he quit drinking, is undergoing therapy, and that he and Jolie are committed to now resolving the matters amicably and in private.
