Brad Pitt speaks about split from Angelina Jolie, compares it to death

May 3,2017

By Rita Chioma
Brad Pitt has compared his split from Angelina Jolie to ‘a death’ and admits his heavy drinking became a problem in his marriage.
Jolie stunned the world in August 2016 when she filed for divorce following an alleged altercation on a private jet between the actor and their 15-year-old son, Maddox.
Now in his first interview about the shocking separation, Pitt admitted that he blames himself for the marriage crumbling, conceding: “I hit the lottery and I still would waste my time on those hollow pursuits.”
He told GQ Style magazine: –
“(The split was) self-inficted… If you love someone, set them free. 
Now I know what it means, by feeling it.
It means to love without ownership. It means expecting nothing in return. It doesn’t mean all to me until, you know. Until you live it.”
When asked if the last few months had felt like he was grieving a death, he curtly replied: ‘Yeah.’ 
The Fight Club star – who noticeably looks much trimmer in the three cover shots – reveals he has cut out alcohol from his life, admitting it had become a ‘problem’ during his life with Angelina. “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 continued.
“And truthfully I could drink a Russian under the table with his own vodka. I was a professional. I was good,” before conceding that he didn’t “want to live that way anymore.” “Personally, I can’t remember a day since I got out of college when I wasn’t boozing or had a spliff, or something.”
 “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.”
