The ‘Ad Astra’ star said that after Angie filed for divorce, he spent nearly two years ‘freeing’ himself of addiction through Alcoholics Anonymous. When Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s 12-year relationship ended in 2016, there were reports that the final straw came when they reportedly fought over his drinking aboard a private plane. The split was a serious wake-up call for Brad, 55, who tells The New York Times that he is committed to his sobriety. “I had taken things as far as I could take it, so I removed my drinking privileges,” he said, adding that after Angie, 44, filed for divorce, Brad spent a year and a half in Alcoholics Anonymous. “You had all these men sitting around being open and honest in a way I have never heard.

We’ll leave it at that.” Brad previously revealed that he quit drinking when speaking to GQ Magazine in 2017. “Personally, I can’t remember a day since I got out of college when I wasn’t boozing or had a spliff, or something And you realize that a lot of it is, um—cigarettes, you know, pacifiers. And I’m running from feelings.” The Fight Club actor said that he’s replaced wine and vodka with cranberry juice and fizzy water. “I’ve got the cleanest urinary tract in all of L.A.” “Brad has been able to maintain his sobriety despite the enormous amount of stress and legal pressure …during his divorce,” a source close to the actor told HollywoodLife EXCLUSIVELY. “During the most challenging time in Brad’s life, he is happy and proud that he has be
