In an interview with Esquire magazine, Matt Damon revealed that Brad Pitt is insanely jealous of his life and the fact that he is married to a “civilian.”
The Bourne star claimed that the press are not that bothered with him as he lives a normal life and is married to his former barmaid wife, Luciana for 18 years, with whom he has three daughters and a stepdaughter.
‘If you can control the celebrity side of celebrity, then it’s worth it. I look at Brad—and I have for years – and when I’m with him I see the intensity of that other side of it,’ explained Damon.
‘I remember telling him that I walk my kids to school, and his face just fell. He was very kind, but he was like, “You b******”. Because he should be able to do that, too. And he can’t.’
The actor confirmed that life was easier due to the fact that he wasn’t married to a celebrity or a big actress.
He continued: ‘They can try to stake me out, but they’re always going to get the same story – middle-aged married guy with four kids. So as long as that narrative doesn’t change too much, there’s no appetite for it.’
This movie star business is a tough life, eh?
