Brad Pitt says he is no longer sober after a seven-year period, telling Esquire that he “got back off the wagon.” Multiple outlets report Pitt refers to his decision to drink again in candid terms, presenting the change as a break from an earlier commitment to sobriety.
The reports add context on when that sobriety began and what prompted it. Several sources say Pitt became teetotal following his 2016 split from Angelina Jolie. ComingSoon.net and others describe Pitt as saying he drinks wine only in small quantities at times. Fox News also highlights additional comments attributed to Pitt about his personal mental health experiences, while outlets such as the New York Post and Independent focus more directly on his “back off the wagon” statement.
Across coverage, the core message remains consistent: Pitt previously stayed sober for about seven years, then resumed alcohol use. Differences are mainly in emphasis—some underline his moderation, while others foreground unrelated remarks included in the same interview.
