Gwyneth Paltrow is glowing with happiness alongside Brad Falchuk, but not long ago, she was experiencing genuine joy with another Brad—Brad Pitt, who publicly declared her the love of his life. He had plans to marry her, dreaming of a lifelong commitment. So, why didn’t his plan come to fruition?
“Gwyneth is my angel, the love of my life,” Pitt said after meeting her on the set of “Se7en” in 1994. He recalled knowing she was “the one” right away but felt clueless around her. Gwyneth shared her perspective in a 1997 interview, reflecting on her initial feelings when they met.

The couple made their red carpet debut in April 1995 at the London premiere of “Legends of the Fall” and took a romantic vacation to St. Barts shortly after, drawing paparazzi attention. In a heartfelt acceptance speech for his Golden Globe award in 1996, Pitt expressed his love for Gwyneth, saying, “My angel, Gwyneth Paltrow,” and added, “You are the one I want to spend the rest of my life with. I will only get married once.”
The couple got engaged in 1996 in Argentina while Pitt was filming “Seven Years in Tibet.” “Gwyneth was with me the whole time in Argentina. It was wonderful,” he shared.

However, just six months after their engagement, they broke it off, shocking many. A representative for Pitt stated that there wasn’t a specific incident that led to the split, and sources close to Gwyneth indicated that infidelity was not the cause. “When two people shouldn’t be together, they shouldn’t be together,” Gwyneth reflected in a 1998 interview.

She has since opened up about the difficulty of that breakup, acknowledging that her personal issues had a significant impact on their relationship. “I felt really responsible,” she admitted, later stating that Pitt was “too good for her.”

In a 2017 interview, she reiterated that she sabotaged their relationship and others before it, taking time to learn how to maintain emotional connections. Despite their past, Pitt and Paltrow have maintained a positive friendship, supporting each other’s endeavors.
