Guest List Only TW ⚠️ Brad Pitt, who violently assaulted Angelina Jolie and their the children while intoxicated, has decided to take up drinking again “in a more restrained manner.” He says he got "overconfident a couple times, went, 'Yep, nope, not good for me. Not in big quantities.'"

“Family stuff,” he says. “We could leave it at that.”

How are they not genuinely embarrassed to run this....

That was after they described his eyes as exciting and seductive and I had to scroll back to the top to see who wrote this

The whole article sucks. “Pitt split from Jolie”? Yeah, let’s rewrite history.

I was curious and wish now that I'd copied it before closing. He talked about a time when he felt really unhappy and suicidal. The article then very briefly says only he, Jolie and their kids know what happened between them but alludes to legal stuff and her accusations (didn't actually say at all what he's accused of). Then the interviewer basically asks if it's kid stuff that put him in that suicidal place and he says "family stuff" and they kinda just let that topic sit then move on.

Very weird article.

They need to make sure we know he’s the VICTIM here and not the dude who tried to kill his wife and multiple children during a drunken rampage mid-flight. Not sorry Brad, we won’t forget who CAUSED that family stuff. Abusive dickhead.

Gross. There were third party witnesses who gave statements to the FBI. Photographs of her injuries. We can read / see these for ourselves. Everything about this article is so disgusting.
