Brad Pitt: I was on drugs during marriage to Jennifer Aniston

Brad Pitt wants you to know: That time he was married to Jennifer Aniston was definitely not great.

The 49-year-old, A-list actor has cast his seven-year marriage to the former “Friends” star, whom he divorced in 2005, in a negative light – telling Esquire magazine that he was wasting his life on drugs during that time.

“For a long time I thought I did too much damage – drug damage. I was a bit of a drifter. A guy who felt he grew up in something of a vacuum and wanted to see things, wanted to be inspired. I followed that other thing. I spent years f***ing off,” Pitt told the magazine. “But then I got burnt out and felt that I was wasting my opportunity. It was a conscious change… This was about a decade ago. It was an epiphany.”

And now, he said, his relationship with Jolie and their six children have put him on cloud nine.
