Your description was just fine @Ainhisg .  Not sure why it would bother anyone.

Re: DIVORCED - BRAD AND ANGELINA

Brad has had alcohol and drug problems for years.  He's admitted going through the Ford Clinic program a couple of times.  The alcohol triggers his temper outbursts.  The oldest boy testified against him.

I don't think that makes him the best parent.  If the kids felt safe with him they would have a relationship with him.  

I'm not a fan of either parent and I think those kids have a lot of trauma in their past.

Re: DIVORCED - BRAD AND ANGELINA

I have seen situations where one parent turns the children against the other. I really believe this is what happened.

 

 

 

Some parents are fair and don't influence their children.

Re: DIVORCED - BRAD AND ANGELINA

@Scooby Doo - Angelina Jolie has had her own past history with drug and alcohol addiction.

 

You can read about it by doing a simple search.  She admits it herself.  While she was filming "Tomb Raider" she was required to undergo daily drug testing to keep her role in the film.

 

Just some of her own words:  "I've done coke, heroin, ecstasy, LSD, everything".  

 

So she's not the shining example to set against anyone else.  I suspect that there was blame on both sides and I agree with someone else that she likely turned the kids against him.  Children tend to take sides - if she made them feel that she was being abused by Brad Pitt, they would defend her.  Right or wrong.

 

She went after him, knowing he was married.  I don't think she's got the monopoly on virtue.

I thought they split up years ago.  So the divorce is final now?  I guess I just don't care...

@Venezia   @Scooby Doo 

 

I think a lot of times co-stars get close while filming, but I don't think she "went after" Brad.   

 

Jennifer wasn't the 100% faithful wife when they were married; but I wouldn't say she "went after" a co-star on Friends.   

 

I don't think Jen and Brad were a good match right from the beginning, and it was bound to fall apart quickly.   

 

It was a very complicated situation, on both sides.  

 

JMO, of course.

Re: DIVORCED - BRAD AND ANGELINA

She is an extremely vindictive woman who appeared to  try to make every hate Pitt including her children.  She was a blood drinking attention seeking woman long before Pitt.  Don't know if she is strong but definitely  a narracisst.

Re: DIVORCED - BRAD AND ANGELINA

The Judge voided the marriage several years ago.  Both have been free to remarry if they so desired.  It was the property and marital assets that have now finally been settled.  Divorced but still fighting, now nothing left to fight over except minor children.

@Venezia It doesn't matter. Brad was an adult. He chose to be with her. She wasn't that powerful.

 

His marriage to Jennifer had it's own issues including Jennifer's own infidelity.

 

Angelina was always blamed but she didn't act alone.

 

How many times have we seen infidelity and drug use among actors. Both have had issues with alcohol and other drugs.

 

Whatever.🙄
