Not long after starring together in Mr. & Mrs. Smith, the duo of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt started dating after the Seven star eventually parted ways with his then-wife Jennifer Aniston. But it would be a while before the actors would tie the knot, as they would go on to date each other for almost a decade and would parent six children, involving two daughters and four sons.
However, in 2014, when the two would eventually decide to get married, the guestlist was pretty small. And it seems the Lara Croft: Tomb Raider star denied the entry of some of Pitt’s closest friends.
Angelina Jolie allegedly banned Quentin Tarantino and Jonah Hill from her wedding
After the two started planning their wedding, which was only attended by 20 people, involving their closest friends and family members, it seems Angelina Jolie allegedly banned some notable names. Despite only working in two movies together, Brad Pitt and Quentin Tarantino formed a strong bond after partnering in Inglourious Basterds and since then have remained great friends. However, one report alleged that considering Tarantino and other pals of Pitt, including Jonah Hill and Philip Hoffman were heavy drinkers, Jolie allegedly banned them from the guest list. The Sun’s report added,
“Angelina wants the whole affair to be very civilised and is concerned about the habits of some of Brad’s more raucous friends. She thinks that if Jonah and Quentin come, they’ll hit the bar early on and cause a commotion,”
The couple eventually tied the knot at the chapel of Château Miraval in the French village of Correns. And despite having a strong bond for over a decade, things didn’t end well for the Mr. & Mrs. Smith stars.
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s marriage didn’t last long
Not long after the two tied the knot, things changed for the worse between Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, as the actress would file a divorce on 20 September 2016, with reasons citing “irreconcilable differences”. Things would escalate between the two years later to the divorce filing, and they would go through a messy trial. Reflecting on the situation, Pitt once stated,
“I am very saddened by this, but what matters most now is the well-being of our kids. I kindly ask the press to give them the space they deserve during this challenging time.”
Both of them have now moved on from their past, with Angelina Jolie finding her way back behind the camera after taking a hiatus, which fans believe was a result of her exhausting divorce.
