In the divorce filing heard ’round the world, Angelina Jolie abruptly ended her 12-year union with Brad Pitt on Sept. 15. OK! investigates what went wrong — and looks back at Hollywood’s most storied romance of all time.
From the moment Angelina Jolie filed for divorce from Brad Pitt on Sept. 15 — requesting full physical custody of their six kids — speculation ran rampant about what could have brought one of the most stable, not to mention glamorous, unions in Hollywood to an abrupt and acrimonious end. Days later, a shocking report emerged: The week before, Brad, 52, had flown into a drunken rage while on a private plane with the children — an alleged incident so alarming it prompted an anonymous tipster to call the L. A. County Department of Children and Family Services.
TIP OF THE ICEBERG
Brad’s boozing and pot-smoking had long been a source of trouble at home. “Angie drinks a bottle of wine a night,” the source says, “but Brad’s much worse. Once they started their wine company [in 2012], he started to fancy himself an expert, with the drinking habit to match.” At first, the source says, they drank together, but Brad soon started drinking alone, stewing in frustration and fury he couldn’t express when sober. “When he drinks,” the source says, “he’s scary.”
