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?

But their kids seem to have a good relationship with both of them so it can't have been that bad of an approach.

Yeah I'd say in fairness they do their best and seem decent people under all the horseshit.

Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn

Like a more conscious uncoupling approach. Seriously how full of shit were Gwyneth and Chris!!

I thought I'd read that they'd sorted it out. God knows they should be able to afford some sort of therapy to help them separate with some dignity

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.

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

She's in Girl, Interrupted but it isn't about her. It's based on the memoir of an American writer named Susanna Kaysen.

Who?

Show quote history

He murdered his wife and both their daughters. The girls were only four and three years old and his wife was pregnant with their unborn son at the time.

At first he tried to play it like she had run off with the girls after he asked.for a divorce, and later he said he had killed his wife in a fit of rage after she murdered the girls. But it all fell apart very quickly and it turned out he just wanted a new start with his mistress.

Don't know about Brad Pitt but Angelina Jolie has used drugs and has dealt with serious mental health issues including suicidal ideation, eating disorders and self-harm; she was sectioned for a short period.

Out of idle curiosity what are the star signs of all these people?

Ooh! I love a good astrology ponder..

Of course, as a sceptical Capricorn I know it's all bollocks.. 😁

I know we will never know but what I don’t understand about the plane is what happened to the staff? Surely they don’t travel on those private planes with no air crew? Or are they that big that they can lock themselves in different parts? I’ve never been on a private jet.

They seemed fine until what ever went down on the plane went down.

Honestly, as time goes on I think that most people who seek out fame and showbiz must be damaged, unwell or plain bonkers.

Amy Winehouse and her husband

Oh yes, of course, that probably has impacted the children very badly.

What about Witney and Bobby Brown? Rihanna and the one who punched her in the face? I don’t know whether Kanye was as bonkers as he is now but I suspect Kim K probably had to put up with a lot. On our side of the pond look at Boris and all his kids (sounds like all of the older ones can’t stand him), various TOWIE/ Love island couples, footballers basically living double lives with kids being used as cannon fodder to get money/ attention.

I suspect Brad and Angelina were probably about as bad as each other as partners, but she does seem to be a half-decent mother. I don’t think he seems like a monster but it does sound like he has alcohol/ addiction issues and I suspect the “unit” of Angelina and the kids turned on him once he fell out of her favour.

BeautyPageantDropout · 04/08/2024 16:06

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

Cattery · 04/08/2024 16:02

Didn’t he dump Jennifer Anniston for her? Just desserts I guess

You sound like you're thoroughly revelling in it. Very strange.

You sound like you're new to the world of Internet speculation. Don't go on Reddit ot Tattle. It will blow your mind
