Brad Pitt has insisted he’s found a ‘softness’ in his older age – following the claims he ‘abused’ his ex-wife Angelina Jolie.
The actor, 61, admitted he’s discovered a ‘love of nature and architect’ as he opened up about how he’s changed in recent years.
In a new interview with GQ magazine – where he finally broke silence on his ugly eight-year Angelina, 49, divorce battle – Brad candidly spoke about his mellow self.
He said: ‘I’m a bit of an architectural snob and I’m a bit of a nature lover.
‘So I just look for a really beautiful spot for a new experience instead of trying to re-create the – I mean, I bring my own sheets. I’ve grown fond of softness in my older age, but that’s about it.’

Brad and Angelina’s ugly divorce battle finally ended in December 2024 after she filed in 2016.
The dispute has seen the exes attack each other in legal filings ever since Brad sued Angelina in 2022 for selling her stake in their Chateau Miraval estate, which produces an award-winning sparkling rosé.
Legal filings seen by DailyMail.com show that the communications Brad was ordered to produce began the day Angelina claimed he abused her on a private plane shortly before their separation in 2016.
She previously accused him of pouring red wine and beer over his ex and one of the couple’s children on a private plane.
Brad has always denied being abusive and was cleared by law enforcement following an investigation – though his ex-wife claimed in filings that his ‘history of physical abuse’ started ‘well before’ the plane incident.
The Maleficent actress filed documents in July claiming that the actor tried to force her to sign an $8.5million NDA to cover up ‘years of abuse.’
At the same time, her legal team asked that the court compel Brad to disclose ‘private, third-party communications’ he had about their family’s 2016 plane ride that resulted in Angelina filing for divorce.
Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Lia Martin issued the ruling last year, after Angelina’s lawyers claimed that the documents would prove her claims Brad tried to make her sign an NDA.

She claims that the gag order would have prevented her from speaking out about the alleged abuse, amid a verbal agreement she would sell her half of the winery to Brad.
Angelina’s lawyers at the time claimed that the documents would prove ‘communications concerning abuse, lies to authorities, and years of cover up’ on Brad’s part.
Brad’s legal team sought for the motion to be denied, claiming the requests were ‘wide-ranging and intrusive’.
The actors’ lawyers also branded the filing as a ‘sensationalist fishing expedition’, with sources calling the latest ruling ‘irrelevant’, as the actor has provided ‘so much information already’.
Paul Murphy, a lawyer for Jolie, branded the documents as ‘crucial evidence’ that Brad has ‘fought for years to hide.’
Elsewhere in the interview for the magazine’s 2025 Summer Issue, alongside his F1 movie co-stars Damson Idris and Lewis Hamilton, Brad spoke about his high-profile divorce.
The Oscar-winning actor was not venting, however, and instead seemed to try and downplay the legal boxing match that’s made headlines for almost a decade.
He said finally seeing the end of their battle was not ‘major.’

‘No, I don’t think it was that major of a thing,’ Pitt said. ‘Just something coming to fruition. Legally.’
Brad and Angelina, who share six children — Maddox, 23, Pax, 21, Zahara, 20, Shiloh, 19, Knox, 16, and Vivienne, also 16 — married in 2014 after meeting on the set of Mr And Mrs Smith.
Brad did acknowledge his love 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 told GQ.
He now lives at his Los Angeles home with his 32-year-old girlfriend, jewelry executive Ines de Ramon.
