Brad Pitt thinks leaving Jennifer Aniston for Angelina Jolie was one of the biggest mistakes of his life
Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston split in 2005.
Before there was Brangelina, there was Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston who were a true blood Hollywood couple in love. However, after the infamous Mr. and Mrs. Smith affair between Brad and Angelina Jolie, Jennifer got a divorce in 2005.
Later on, Brad and Angelina went on to not only get married but have six kids together. Ultimately, 2016 saw the shocking split of Brangelina and while the divorce is yet to be finalised, the couple is pretty much over with no trace of a reconciliation.
After the split, Brad sobered up and sought therapy which has resulted in a massive realisation for the Fight Club actor.
A source revealed to a leading US-based entertainment magazine, "He's come to realize that leaving Jen for Angelina was one of the biggest mistakes of his life. And while he's not in love with Jen, he realizes how much he does love her. Brad keeps telling friends that he's seeing everything more clearly."
However, Jennifer is happily (or not!) married to Justin Theroux for two years now. And while Brad would never try to break her marriage he would take a second chance at love in a heartbeat.
"He still considers Jen the love of his life," the source concluded.
It's not just personally though, in terms of professional aspects as well, Brad wants Jennifer as his business partner as "they worked well together." Especially during the time when the ex-couple formed the production company Plan B in 2001, according to an insider close to Brad.
This professional partnership could prove as an advantage to Jennifer as she wants in on "prestige projects" under his production banner which produces and develops more and more high-quality film and cable TV products.
"She'd be beyond thrilled to win an Academy Award for Best Actress something that's evaded both her and Angelina," the insider suggested.
