Would you believe that 6 years ago, in the month of September, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie officially called it quits? 2016 seems so BC (before Covid). From its salacious beginnings to its ending – the split caused worldwide shock. While they are considered legally single, their divorce is far from settled and it seems they are still making more news together than separate.. whether it is about the sale of Chateau Miraval, or the release of the incident that happened inflight, which was the tipping point that caused Angelina to call it quits.

 

By the time all is said and done, the process of uncoupling will last longer than their official marriage, but we’re thinking about the story behind it…and all the amazing music that seems to go with it. If you’re in the mood to go back to those simpler days, we suggest you gather your favorite snacks and take a look at our Brangelina playlist.
