Pitt got together with Angelina Jolie in 2004. His divorce from Aniston sparked controversy among his fans, prompting them to choose Team Aniston or Team Jolie.

“It became very clear to me that I was so intent on trying to find a movie about an interesting life, but I wasn’t living an interesting life myself. I think my marriage [to Aniston] had something to do with it: trying to pretend the marriage was something that it wasn’t,” he said.

Pitt and Jolie announced their relationship in a W spread that showed them playing house in Palm Springs. They had six children.

Pitt and Jolie lasted 12 years. “When someone asked me why Angie and I don’t get married, I replied, ‘Maybe we’ll get married when it’s legal for everyone else.’ I stand by that, although I took a lot of flak for saying it—hate mail from religious groups. I believe everyone should have the same rights. They say gay marriage ruins families and hurts kids. Well, I’ve had the privilege of seeing my gay friends being parents and watching their kids grow up in a loving environment,” Pitt told Parade.

Jolie filed for divorce in 2016. Pitt told GQ about their divorce in 2017.

“The avoidance of pain is a real mistake. It’s the real missing out on life. It’s those very things that shape us, those very things that offer growth, that make the world a better place, oddly enough, ironically. That make us better. By the way, there’s no love without loss. It’s a package deal.”

Theron, if she was dating Pitt, is not any longer. It is reported that Pitt is seeing many different women at the same time.

“He picks up his ladies on his motorcycle, which they love, and has wined and dined them at friends’ restaurants where he can enter through the back door and enjoy an old-fashioned date in a private dining area,” a source told In Touch.
