Brad Pitt opens up about joining AA following Angelina Jolie divorce

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie were Hollywood’s sweethearts during their 11-year relationship from 2005 to 2016.

In 2016, the couple filed for divorce citing irreconcilable differences following an incident on a private jet.

In an interview this week with The New York Times, Pitt opened up about turning to Alcoholics Anonymous for support following the relationship breakdown.

He says things took their toll on him during their highly publicised split “I had taken things as far as I could take it, so I removed my drinking privileges.”

He praised AA as a “freeing” place to get sober: “It was this safe space where there was little judgment, and therefore little judgment of yourself.”

He also opened up about turning to marijuana to deal with his rise to fame “In the ’90s, all that attention really threw me.”

“I really became a bit of a hermit and just bonged myself into oblivion.”
