Ah, the saga of Brad Pitt & Angelina Jolie’s relationship—never was there a tale of more oohs and ahs, unless you’re counting Romeo and Juliet, minus the William Shakespearean tragedy, but plus a gaggle of paparazzi. Meeting on the set ofMr. & Mrs. Smith, these two were like moths to a flame, sparking up a romance that was as glamorous as it was tumultuous.
As one of the ultimate power couples, ‘Brangelina’ seemed to have it all: a lovely bond and a big family. They often looked like they were on the same page, but behind closed doors, trust issues and jealousy were brewing. The biggest meatball in this drama? Pitt’s unease over Jolie’s close friendship with Jared Leto.
Brad Pitt Couldn’t Bear Jared Leto’s Bond With Angelina Jolie?
As the great Oscar Wilde once quipped,“The only thing worse than being talked about is not being talked about.”And boy, wereBrad Pittand Angelina Jolie, the talk of the town!
While Brad Pitt is Cut off, Angelina Jolie’s Relationship With Her Kids Is Getting Stronger By the Day – “We’re proud of you mom”
Their marriage wasn’t just a Hollywood fairy tale; it came with its fair share of hiccups before they dropped the bombshell of their divorce (seeThe Daily Telegraph).
According to the grapevine (viaHollywood Life), one of the main bones of contention was Jolie’s undeniable chemistry withJared Leto. Let’s face it: Both Pitt and Jolie shared the screen with this Oscar-winning charmer.
Pitt rubbed shoulders with Leto inFight Clubback in 1999, while Jolie had two encounters with him inGirl, InterruptedandAlexander. Clearly, this trio was destined for some complicated interactions!
Rumor has it that Pitt often found himself feeling like a third wheel when it came to Jolie and Leto’s friendship, leading to more than a few spats. The insider shared with Hollywood Life:
Angelina and Brad fought about Jared a lot over the years; he was someone Brad was really threatened by. Brad always felt like he couldn’t trust Angelina when it came to Jared.
Ouch! But wait! It seems Jolie might have been pushing Pitt’s buttons with her bond with theSuicide Squadstar, particularly during their more heated arguments. The12 Monkeysactor was so convinced that Leto might sweep Jolie off her feet post-divorce that he was practically seeing red. Another source claimed:
Jared reached out to Angie after she filed divorce papers in September. The word is they spoke several times on the phone before meeting up in L.A. for dinner, and they’ve been seeing each other whenever they can since then.
Sounds like Leto wasn’t just a friend in this scenario; he was the icing on the cake of Jolie’s post-marital adventures! Now, let’s not get ahead of ourselves—kindly note that this is all speculation!
Angelina and Brad Were Sure About Their Marriage
Life is all about the pursuit of happiness, but sometimes, it seems like happiness comes with a side of sadness! For years, Brad Pitt, 60, andAngelina Jolie, 49, were the golden couple of Tinseltown, strutting down red carpets like they owned the place. In 2014, they finallytiedthe knot at their picturesque home in France. In an interview on theMsMojo YouTubechannel, Jolie explained their motivations behind making it official:
It was all of us agreeing to be together and to just commit to this life together. Not because we had to, not because anything was missing in our lives, because we were absolutely sure that we felt like that much of a family.
That’s actually very heartwarming, right? Cue the heartwarming music!

But just as the credits were about to roll on this fairy tale, things took a nosedive. In 2016—just two years after saying “I do”—Jolie filed for divorce, citing irreconcilable differences (per The Daily Telegraph). By 2019, theink was dryon their divorce papers, marking the end of their marriage.
