Golden couple: Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt

We’re sure you’ve read all of those internet rumors of Brad Pitt leaving Angelina Jolie, the two of them divorcing, and the utter chaos that is going down inside the Jolie-Pitt household.

Well according to daddy Brad, you can forget them because they’re not true.

The “Moneyball” actor recently sat down for an interview about his latest big screen offering and talked about something he rarely goes on the record about: his personal life.

In the interview with Parade magazine, Brad opens up about his partner Angelina, saying, “She is such a great mom.”

“One of the greatest, smartest things I ever did was give my kids Angie as their mom,” he adds.

He also says that becoming a parent felt “instinctual” to him.

The 47-year-old actor explains, “Now I have a great confidence and trust in those instincts.”

“I mean, one sound at night and you’re away and up because they may need you.  Or when they start to have a tantrum, you know to divert them from spinning out by helping them focus on something.  It just goes on and on.  I tell them, ‘You can make a mess, but you’ve got to clean it up.’”

(Brad as the calm, collective parent? Oh, how we would love to see him in action.  Swoon).

Brad also touches on the rumor that he and Angelina are planning to tie the knot soon, simply saying, “We’ll get married when everyone can.  We’re not splitting up.  And we don’t have a seventh child yet.”

The Hollywood heartthrob also compares his current relationship with that of his former marriage to actress Jennifer Aniston, explaining that his life back then was “pathetic.”

“I think that my marriage [to Jennifer Aniston] had something to do with it.  Trying to pretend the marriage was something that it wasn’t.”

Oh, Angelina Jolie you are one lucky woman (but still, that was a little mean of Brad to say that about Jen).

Check out our pics of the happy couple.

Brad is an A-hole. Jennifer is so lucky to have gotten rid of this jerk. In several years when he separates from Angelina like happens with 99% of Hollywood he’ll be doing the same thing to her. Can’t stand the guy and he is aging faster than most man in HW. I guess having such a bitter heart ages people.

Love it. It is about time that he lets the truth out about the dumb tabloids and also about his unhappy marriage. Tired of all the lies about how supposedly Angie broke ahappy marriage has always been a crock. i remember the mag aritcles back then, not tabs where Jen admitted to not caring that much if Brad was gone for months at a time so she could relax and decorate the way she wanted. And how she didnt know if her husband was the love of her life. Who says that about their husband? and this was way before Angie.

Yeah the marriage had problems for years, they shouldnt have married, it happens. Now is time for the tabs to stop fabricating stories about these people.

I don’t see anything “mean” about admitting he was in an unhappy marriage and stayed in it longer than he should have. It is a very human thing. Both my ex and I stayed together longer than we should have mostly becasue we didn’t want to admit faulure and were worried about what our families and friends would think. But that is not a good reason to stay in an unhappy relationship. We are both much happier now that we are able to live our lives in ways that fulfill us. Brad is obviously happier now with Angie and their kids . Jen seems pretty happy as well. I think they both are living the lives they really always wanted. Good for them.

Brad has shut the mouths of every lying tabloid with this interview.

Thanks Brad for setting the record straight! He has left no doubt why he got out of his dead end marriage and why he loves Angelina, left no doubt about his decision and how many lies the tabloids have been printing for years.

This family has been abused enough in the press,especially Angelina.

As long as the kids are happy (as well as the parents) that’s all that matters.

Oh, and Brad did NOT say his marriage was pathetic. He said during the 90′s he spent time hiding out because of his fame, sitting on the couch with a joint, and THAT was pathetic. He DID also say that he realized that he was trying for roles about people with interesting lives and it finally ocurred to him he was searching for those roles because he wasnt living an interesting life himself. that is when he realized also that he was only pretending his marriage was something that it was not. That is a sad realization but one everyone who gets divorced comes to. No one gets divorced if they are happy.

wow, what an as***le…
jennifer is way better off wihtout this ninny.
..well, I am assuming that selling your family to tabloids is not enough to make a difference at the BO when his crappy movie will be out. Extreme measures are called for.

He isn’t speaking the truth, unless you admit that every interview he gave during and after his marriage to Aniston until now was a lie. The man gushed about her when with her. Gushed about his life with her. They were together for 7 years, 2 before marrying, so it isn’t like he got swindled into something he didn’t know about. Of course every marriage has its ups and downs and both have admitted there were problems, but this comment of his was completely unnecessary and hurtful to Aniston. The man checked out of his marriage and cheated with Jolie. If he was unhappy he should have worked on fixing things or ended it in a respectful manner. He didn’t, and yet he has the audacity now to throw shade at Aniston, who has always remained dignified about their split. I’m sure she could let some real truths out if she were to sink to his level. The guys an ass.

Wow, I can’t believe Brad is saying such nasty things about Jennifer?

Even if things ended badly, it still hurts to throw knives at your ex
