Billy Bob Thornton, the renowned actor and filmmaker, recently opened up about his marriage to Angelina Jolie.
Their relationship was no less intriguing than that of Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee, especially with their infamous vials of each other's blood as necklaces.
Jolie has always been seen as a wild child, even according to comedian Chelsea Handler.
However, since Jolie's split from Brad Pitt, the curiosity surrounding their marriage has reached new heights.
People are eager to know what it was really like to be married to Angelina Jolie, and luckily, Thornton is shedding some light on the subject.
During a podcast interview for HFPA in Conversation, the 62-year-old Thornton reflected on his three-year marriage to Jolie, who is now 43.
He fondly stated that he considers that time as a great period in his life.
Despite their separation, Jolie remains a close friend whom he holds in high regard due to her numerous accomplishments.
The couple first crossed paths in 1999 while working together on the film “Pushing Tin.”
They tied the knot in 2000 and remained married until 2003.
Interestingly, Jolie was Thornton's fifth wife, which might have raised some eyebrows.
Thornton acknowledged that their differing lifestyles played a role in the end of their marriage.
While Jolie embraced a global lifestyle, Thornton preferred a more reclusive approach.
These contrasting paths ultimately led them to part ways.
When it comes to the infamous vials of blood, Thornton explained that the media blew things out of proportion.
He admitted that their actions were exaggerated but emphasized that it was not as crazy as it was portrayed.
The idea behind the necklaces was simple – they would poke their fingers with a pen, smear a little blood, and wear the necklaces when they were apart.
It was a symbol of their connection and commitment to each other.
However, by the time the media got a hold of the story, it had become distorted.
Thornton clarified that they were not wearing buckets of blood around their necks, as some reports suggested.
It was merely a sentimental gesture between two people deeply in love.
Despite their differences and the end of their marriage, Thornton still has immense respect for Jolie.
