Shortly after Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s second wedding anniversary, the actress filed for divorce in 2016, ending their twelve-year relationship. The messy court battle ended in 2019 when their legal separation was finalized.
The cause of the famous Hollywood ex-couple’s split remains the talk of the town, and while the angle of a third party involved has been looked into, it seems that Pitt’s addiction to marijuana is also a culprit.

In another interview withParade, theOcean’s Elevenstar opened up about his marijuana consumption while he was married toMurder MysteryactressJennifer Aniston. Pitt shared:
“I spent the ‘90s trying to hide out, trying to duck the full celebrity cacophony. I started to get sick of myself sitting on a couch, holding a joint, hiding out. It started feeling pathetic. It became very clear to me that I was intent on trying to find a movie about an interesting life, but I wasn’t living an interesting life myself.”
The actor also admitted that his marriage had something to do with his addiction. However, theWorld War Zstar confessed in another conversation that he had been smoking cannabis when he was still a student. He toldEsquire:
“I’m two credits short of graduating college [he studied journalism]. Two credits. All I had to do was write a paper. What kind of guy is that? That guy scares me — the guy who always leaves a little on his plate.”
Pitt claimed he tried to quit his addiction to marijuana and booze when he and Jolie had children. Apparently, this was not the case as his dangerous habit allegedly became one of the reasons why the Oscar-winning actress decided to end their marriage.

“Having children saved me—and taught me to be in this world differently. I think, recently, I would’ve gone under in a much darker way had I not wanted to live for them. They’re better than me because you want your children to be. Of course, I’m the mother, and hopefully that safe place for them and that stability.”
