Angelina Jolie Opens Up About Her Mental Health After Brad Pitt Divorce

Buy Me A Coffee

Angelina Jolie, one and only Tomb Raider extraordinaire, recently spilled the beans on her post-divorce mental gymnastics following the breakup with ex-husband Brad Pitt. In a tell-all chat with the fancy French magazine Madame Figaro, our beloved Maleficent actress gave us a front-row seat to the emotional rollercoaster that was her split from Pitt.

According to Jolie, the breakup was a bit like trying to solve a Rubik’s Cube blindfolded โ€“ complicated. โ€œThe split was a complicated moment,โ€ she admitted, as if divorcing Brad was as simple as picking a flavor of ice cream.

As she spilled the tea, Jolie confessed, โ€œWhen my relationship with Brad was doing the limbo dance on its way out, I had lost myself a bit.โ€ Picture Angelina doing the cha-cha with her sense of self โ€“ quite the mental image, right?

In the midst of the separation saga, Jolie shared that she felt โ€œsmaller, almost insignificant, even if it wasnโ€™t necessarily obvious.โ€ Because nothing says ‘I’m feeling tiny’ like being an international superstar.

โ€œI felt a deep and genuine sadness, I was hurt,โ€ lamented the 48-year-old, as if she had just finished a tub of Ben & Jerry’s while watching The Notebook. We feel you, Angie.

But fear not! Despite the legal tug-of-war with Pitt, Jolie is now in a phase she fondly calls โ€œtransitionโ€ โ€“ a bit like a caterpillar turning into a butterfly, but with more paparazzi. She has embarked on a journey of self-discovery, unsure of what the future holds. Maybe a cameo in a rom-com? We can only hope.

In a surprising twist, Jolie revealed that this separation actually helped her “reconnect” with the good things in life. โ€œAll these things settle in you and remind you of how lucky you are to be alive,โ€ she exclaimed, as if she had just discovered the secret to eternal happiness. Who knew divorce could be so enlightening?

In a previous interview with The Guardian, Jolie was probed about the tough decision to pull the plug on her marriage with Pitt. The Salt actress spilled the beans, saying, โ€œI’m not the kind of person who makes decisions like the decisions I had to make lightly. It took a lot for me to be in a position where I felt I had to separate from the father of my children.โ€ Cue the dramatic background music.

โ€œThereโ€™s a lot I canโ€™t say,โ€ she cryptically added, leaving us all on the edge of our seats. The plot thickens, just like a good mystery novel.

In the grand scheme of things, Pitt and Jolie reportedly tied the knot in 2014 after nearly a decade of romantic entanglement, only to find themselves untangling the knot just two years later. The former power couple share six children, making their divorce saga the real-life version of a soap opera.

Angelina Jolie’s journey from Hollywood royalty to divorce connoisseur, all wrapped up in a bow of emotional rollercoasters, self-discovery, and a touch of mystery. Who said celebrity divorces can’t be entertaining?
