The Golden Globes earlier this week has seemingly reignited public interest in Brad Pitt’s personal life (did it ever really stop?) thanks to the reunion between himself and ex-wife Jennifer Aniston. Turns out though, Pitt has a great sense of humour about his own life and the unrelenting media interest that comes with it.

During an appearance on podcast WTF with Marc Maron, alongside Once Upon A Time…In Hollywood co-star Leonardo DiCaprio, he called his personal life a “disaster”. 

As People reports, host Maron asked Pitt and DiCaprio when they knew they’d become really, really famous. For DiCaprio, the answer was simple: it came immediately after the release of a little-known “film called Titanic”. 

That moment of reflection seemed to hit something with Pitt, because he started to talk about how tabloids cover his romantic life and not his professional work. Pitt jokingly told his co-star, “I’m a little disgruntled with you,” adding, “I’m just like, trash mag fodder. I don’t know…because of my disaster of a personal life, probably.”

Pitt actually referenced his personal life on stage at the Golden Globes after winning Best Supporting Actor. 

“I wanted to bring my mum [to the Globes], but I couldn’t, because any woman I stand next to they say I’m dating,” he told the crowd.
