After years of keeping matters related to his divorce from Angelina Jolie mostly confined to the courtroom, Brad Pitt is speaking out about the drawn-out legal matter. On May 28, GQ published a feature story on Pitt's latest film, "F1," and asked him about his December divorce settlement with Jolie following an eight-year battle in court. And Pitt had a surprisingly toned-down response to the question about whether the finalized matter brought any "relief." "No, I don't think it was that major of a thing," Pitt told the magazine. "Just something coming to fruition. Legally." He appeared to have a more impassioned answer to an ensuing question about whether his first public outing with partner Ines de Ramon at the 2024 British Grand Prix in July was a deliberate decision. "No, dude, it's not that calculated," Pitt told GQ. "If you're living — oh my God, how exhausting would that be? If you're living with making those kinds of calculations? No, life just evolves. Relationships evolve." The GQ cover story also spoke with director Joseph Kosinski and co-stars Damson Idris and Lewis Hamilton (also a producer) about the making of what the magazine called "the greatest racing movie of all time," which releases June 27. Amid Brad and Angelina's divorce, children distanced themselves from Pitt's name Jolie filed for divorce from Pitt in September 2016, more than a decade after they met on the set of "Mr. and Mrs. Smith." Upon its finalization, Jolie's lawyer, James Simon, told USA TODAY in a statement that "Frankly, Angelina is exhausted, but she is relieved this one part is over." "She and the children left all of the properties they had shared with Mr. Pitt, and since that time she has focused on finding peace and healing for their family.

People also reported that month that Vivienne dropped "Pitt" from her name in the Playbill credit for the buzzy Broadway musical "The Outsiders," which her mom produced. Aside from the divorce, Pitt and Angelina Jolie had also previously been engaged in an ongoing legal battle over the finances of their winery, Château Miraval, as well as custody over their children.

Brad Pitt breaks silence on divorce from ex-wife Angelina Jolie as he dispells major rumour about girlfriend Ines de Ramon
Brad Pitt has broken his silence on his divorce from his ex-wife Angelina Jolie as he dispelled a major rumour about his girlfriend Ines de Ramon. On Wednesday, the 61-year-old Fight Club actor spoke to GQ magazine ahead of his forthcoming racing film F1. In his interview, Pitt appeared to downplay the end of Brangelina and said their demise was not "major". "No, I don't think it was that major of a thing," he said. "Just something coming to fruition. Legally." Pitt opened up about the struggles of his high-profile relationships being the subject of ruthless media attention for three decades, including his 12-year relationship with Jolie. 'My personal life is always in the news. It's been in the news for 30 years, bro. Or some version of my personal life, let's put it that way," he said. The Once Upon a Time in Hollywood actor said "always deal(ing)" with the attention has been an "annoyance" of "different degrees." Despite the public exposure which he described as a "nagging time," Pitt said his life now mostly feels "fairly contained." He said he felt "warm and secure" with his friends, family and loved ones, but made no direct mention of his six children. Pitt and Jolie reached a divorce settlement in December following eight years of bitter legal battles over custody of their children and finances. The Benjamin Button star began dating 32-year-old de Ramon, a jewellery designer, in 2022. The couple attended the 2024 British Grand Prix together. Pitt denied the move was a stunt to garner publicity for his forthcoming racing movie, telling GQ it was "not that calculated". He said making such calculations would be "exhausting" and "life just evolves. Relationships evolve." De Ramon divorced The Vampire Diaries star Paul Wesley after three years of marriage last November. The pair don't share any children. Pitt and Jolie meanwhile share Maddox, 23, Pax, 21, Zahara, 20, Shiloh, 19, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 16. During their lengthy divorce proceedings, four of their six children became adults, which rendered the need for a custody agreement for them. Knox and Vivienne are the only two minors. The initial judge in their lawsuit, along with federal and Los Angeles County officials, granted Pitt equal custody of the children. A key point in the case was Jolie's sale of the couple's French winery Château Miraval to a third party. Pitt said her move was "vindictive" and sued her over it. Jolie filed a countersuit in which she alleged the actor psychically and verbally abused her and their children on a plane in 2016. Pitt strongly denied the allegations and said they were "another rehash that only harms the family". However, in 2017, he told GQ magazine he had a drinking problem at the time of the alleged incident but was sober and attending therapy. It's unclear what Pitt's relationship with his children is like, but there are major signs suggesting he's estranged from them. In January, People Magazine reported Pitt had minimal contact with the twins while he was in the throes of filming F1. According to sources, he has "virtually no contact" with his older adult children who wanted Jolie to "defend herself" during their divorce. Then months ago, Zahara officially dropped her father's surname and became Zahara Jolie instead of Zahara Jolie-Pitt. Shiloh quickly followed her sister and requested a legal name change to Shiloh Jolie as opposed to Shiloh Jolie-Pitt.
