Brad Pitt has confessed that life with ex-wife Jennifer Aniston was boring, said HollywoodReporter​.com. In an interview with Parade magazine, Pitt said that he wasn’t living an “interesting life” before he met current partner Angelina Jolie, and that his five-year marriage to Aniston “had something to do with it.” Pitt later backtracked, claiming he wasn’t taking a swipe at Aniston, whom he split from in 2005 after hooking up with Jolie on the set of Mr. and Mrs. Smith. “The point I was trying to make is not that Jen was dull,” he explained, “but that I was becoming dull to myself.”
