好萊塢男星布拉德•皮特和安吉麗娜•朱莉離婚至今已7個月，一直都沒有對外談論婚變。近來受訪時，皮特首度披露這陣子以來的心路歷程，並坦承「離婚是自找的」，因為自己酗酒導致婚姻破裂，但是現在已經覺悟戒酒，準備過全新的生活。皮特還表示，他不會為子女監護權的問題和朱莉撕破臉。
Brad Pitt is not going to engage in a nasty custody battle with Angelina Jolie.
布拉德•皮特不會和安吉莉娜•朱莉上演一場撕破臉的監護權大戰。
In his first extensive interview since the power couple's highly-publicized divorce, Pitt told GQ Style he will not let things get ugly in court over the couple's six children.
自從這對名人夫妻的離婚被高度曝光後，皮特首次接受深度採訪。他對《GQ Style》雜誌表示，自己不會因為6個子女的事情在法庭上鬧得很難堪。
"I just refuse," he said. "And fortunately my partner in this agrees. It's just very, very jarring for the kids, to suddenly have their family ripped apart."
他說：「我不能接受這樣的事。幸運的是，我的另一半也認同我的想法。家庭突然破裂會讓孩子們感到非常不適。」
The stars shocked fans in September 2016 when Jolie filed for divorce from Pitt after two years of marriage and more than ten years as a couple.
2016年9月，兩人結婚兩年、戀愛10多年後，朱莉提出與皮特離婚，此舉讓粉絲震驚。
There was much speculation as to what was going to happen to their kids: 15-year-old Maddox, 13-year-old Pax, 12-year-old Zahara, 10-year-old Shiloh and 8-year-old twins Vivienne and Knox.
皮特和朱莉的孩子馬多克斯15歲，帕克斯13歲，扎哈拉12歲，夏伊洛10歲，雙胞胎薇薇安和諾克斯8歲。關於6名子女的撫養權存在很多猜測。
In the wake of the break up, Pitt was the subject of an investigation over a family incident which occurred on a private plane during a family trip.
兩人分手後，皮特因為一起在家庭旅行期間發生在私人飛機上的家庭事件接受了調查。
（皮特當時涉嫌在夫妻二人的私人飛機上對他們的一個或多個孩子進行了言語和身體上的攻擊。皮特對此表示否認。）
It was later closed with no charges but he faced a series of obstacles from Child Services in a bid to regain access to his six children.
調查結束後皮特沒有遭到指控，但是兒童保護署對他重獲子女探望權設置了一系列障礙。
Now in his first interview since the shock separation, he reveals he is tee-total, is in therapy and says his family has been 'ripped apart', conceding: 'I hit the lottery and I still would waste my time on those hollow pursuits.'
如今，皮特在讓人震驚的分手後首次接受採訪，他透露自己正在戒酒，接受治療，而他的家庭已經「四分五裂」。皮特承認：「我中了大獎，卻還把時間浪費在那些空虛的追求上。」
'I can’t remember a day since I got out of college when I wasn’t boozing or had a spliff, or something.
「大學畢業以後，我就每天酗酒、抽大麻等等。」
'I mean I stopped everything except boozing when I started my family. But even this last year, you know - things I wasn’t dealing with.'
「我想說，除了酗酒外，結婚後我戒掉了所有惡習。但是即使是這樣，你知道的，去年我還是搞砸了。」
The Fight Club star has quit alcohol since the incident, admitting it had become a 'problem' during his life with Angelina.
自從那次飛機事件後，皮特就戒酒了。他承認，酗酒成為他們夫妻之間的一個「問題。」
He has now replaced boozing with therapy, adding: 'You know, I just started therapy. I love it. I love it. I went through two therapists to get the right one.'
現在他已經對酒癮進行治療，他補充道：「我剛開始治療。我很喜歡這樣的方式。我找了兩個治療師才找到正確的方法。」
'I was boozing too much. It just become a problem. And I’m really happy it’s been half a year now, which is bittersweet, but I』ve got my feelings in my fingertips again.
「我過去喝酒喝得太多了。這已經成為一個問題。我真的很高興現在已經戒酒半年，這半年裡有好有壞，但是我的指尖現在又恢復知覺了。」
He told GQ Style that the split was 'self-inflicted' and when asked if the last few months had felt like he was grieving a death, he simply replied: 'Yeah.'
皮特告訴《GQ Style》，離婚是他「咎由自取」。當被問及過去幾個月是否感到悲痛欲絕時，皮特只回答了一句：「是的」。
Explaining his life in the weeks after Jolie filed for divorce, Pitt says he was too devastated to return to his home in Beverly Hills and needed to get away.
皮特還提到了朱莉提出離婚後那幾周他的日子。他太傷心了，以至於不敢回到比弗利山莊的家中，必須要逃離那裡。
He slept on a friend's floor for six weeks as he tried to cope with the loss of his relationship and family homelife.
他在朋友家的地板上睡了6周，試圖去適應失去妻子和家庭生活的現實。
Alongside his bombshell revelation that his drinking damaged his relationship, the actor says that he spent too much time away from his children working on films.
皮特除了驚爆婚姻破裂是因為他酗酒外，還稱自己離開孩子外出拍電影的時間太多了。
'I say that as someone who's let the work take me away. Kids are so delicate,' he explains. 'They need to have their hand held and things explained. They need to be listened to. When I get in that busy work mode, I'm not hearing. I want to be better at that.'
「我承認自己是一個被工作牽著走的人。孩子們非常敏感脆弱，需要有人牽著他們的手，給他們解釋一切。他們需要被傾聽。當我投入繁忙的工作時，我無法傾聽他們。我想要做得更好。」
