A magazine insisted last year that Brad Pitt relapsed after taking to booze once again. Read on to know the entire story here!

It was reported last year that the Fight Club star abused alcohol at an after-party for his film Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. Reports had it that the Hollywood A-lister was sober for a couple of years before the story was published.

However, the publication claimed that the actor convinced somebody to get him drinks at a party, which was hosted at Roosevelt Hotel in Hollywood. A dubious insider mentioned that the Troy star was first drinking mocktails. 

However, the unnamed source then maintained that he started drinking alcohol as the night went on. The anonymous tipster also purported that the actor’s behavior led to other invitees in the party wondering whether he has got addicted to alcohol once again or not. 

The same magazine insisted that the actor’s close friends were scared that his addiction to alcohol could once again make him destructive like he was in the past. Irrespective of what the sketchy source purported, Gossip Cop claims that it investigated the report and found it to be incorrect. 

They checked with a close friend of the actor’s and were assured that Pitt did not start boozing again. Brad Pitt has been candid about his struggles with addiction, as well as, leading his life as a teetotaler now.

Meanwhile, the actor received an award in the category of Best Supporting Actor at the Annual Gala of National Board of Review. He was appreciative of Bradley Cooper, his fellow actor, who inspired him to remain sober, NBC News reports. 

Pitt said in his acceptance speech that he got sober because of Cooper’s perseverance and has been joyful since. This was not the only time when magazines fabricated false stories regarding the actor’s sobriety. 

Around six months ago, a magazine asserted that the Once Upon a Time in Hollywood star and The Morning Show actress had a bitter feud over her drinking. The same publication maintained that the exes could not reunite as Jen refused to quit drinking.

However, this story was also false. First, the duo never rekindled their romance and they also did not argue over her drinking. Additionally, spokespersons of the exes have already confirmed that they have not revived their romance. 

There was another incorrect report in the past that Brad Pitt has relapsed on marijuana. The report claimed that the Hollywood hunk started smoking weed while acting in its 2017 film, Ad Astra. However, there was no solid evidence to back this story too.
