To think Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have had the worst relationship ever

It's quite spectacular the downfall from leading couple in the world to the children changing their names when they turn 18. Divorces happen but the scale of the disintegration is wild. If only Ange was on MN to get advice on red flags. 🚩

I wonder if Brad wishes he’d stayed with Jennifer…it seemed a very simple, easy relationship. Angelina seems a very complex character, although does seem to be a v good mum..but who knows 🤷🏻‍♀️

Is Brad Pitt a drug addict? Which drugs and why do the children not want his name anymore, do they still see him?

I wonder why people think if Brad stayed with Jen he'd be different. He chose to be a violent alcoholic.

I think because Jen was on Friends ( which I still love) we feel like we know her. She'll always be girl nextdoor Rachel Greene.

But Jen has also had a lot of relationships not work out and a second divorce. I imagine she's as complicated as the rest of us.

Jay Mohr has talked about how mean she was to him on set of Picture Perfect that he actually would go home and cry.

Angelina isn't very Hollywood anymore which I think is nice for her and her kids.

My point is they each play a role. Brad is the all American guy who married the all American girl.

Then the sexy seductress came and stole him away with her evil spells.

I don't think any of them are really who we think they are.

Marie Trintignant and Bertrand Cantat...

Wow I’d never heard of them. What an awful story!

Someone needs to start a thread on celebrity relationships that have been successful! This is depressing! Are there no role models for good relationships?!

Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgewick.

They made a movie about it if anyone wants to see. It's called Girl, Interrupted.

Show quote history

That wasn’t about Angelina. Although she was in it. It was based on a memoir by an author called Kaysen.

If true, he sounds like an abusive drunk

Reading that, he sounds absolutely awful. If Angelina posted on MN, that would be a straight LTB from me.

Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn?
Oh no, have I just jinxed them? 😂

Brad Pitt is/was an abusive husband and now that Angelina has left him he is continuing to try and exert control by elongating the court process.

It’s straight from the abuser handbook and it’s disappointing to see posters on this thread attempting to lay the blame for his behaviour at Jolie’s door.

EachandEveryone · 04/08/2024 22:04

Apparently not.

Heatethelastwaffle · 04/08/2024 22:02

Do the kids not have contact with him?

Natalie Wood and Robert Wagner

That really didn't end well

I cannot believe that their divorce still ongoing. They split up so long ago.

Quite. I don't read the tabloids but wasn't this like 5+ years ago, even more?

FeelingUnsure99 · 04/08/2024 20:12

Really? In all the marriages you know that have ended in divorce, a Hollywood couple are the WORST?

Brad is a Sagittarius and Angelina a Gemini.

At least Chris Martin & Gwyneth seem to parent well without messi g up their kids

Demi & Bruce seem on good terms

Angelina didn't have the best parental role models but who really knows what goes on /has gone on with her and Brad

My abiding memory of Angelina Jolie is her kissing her brother on the red carpet. I think her and Brad Pitt are probably as bad as each other.

Yeah I think she's probably a very complex and contrary individual.

Rather than “worst relationship ever”, I see most of these as most likely being abusive men and their wives/partners.
