LAURA DERN REVEALS SHOCKING STORY: HOW HER FIANCÉ DITCHED HER FOR ANGELINA JOLIE

In 1999, the unexpected marriage of Billy Bob Thornton and Angelina Jolie made headlines and surprised many people.

The couple had a notable 20-year age difference and were both involved with other partners at the time, which added to the excitement.

One person who was shocked was actress Laura Dern, who was engaged to Billy Bob. Laura found out about Billy Bob’s marriage to Angelina at the same time as everyone else, which upset her plans.

Billy Bob and Laura started dating in 1997, right after Laura split from Jeff Goldblum and Billy Bob was still going through a divorce from his fourth wife, Pietra Dawn Cherniak. After two years together, they were engaged and planning their wedding when Billy Bob met Angelina on the set of “Pushing Tin” in 1999.

Billy Bob Thornton and Angelina Jolie’s quickie wedding in Las Vegas in May 2000 took many by surprise, including Laura Dern. Laura was caught off guard and shared her feelings in an interview with InStyle: “I left our home to work on a movie, and while I was away, my boyfriend got married, and I’ve never heard from him again.” She felt a sudden sense of loss and confusion with no closure.

Billy Bob never admitted to any wrongdoing but did express regret in a 2001 interview, saying: “Others may say that you left our girl and married someone else. But it made me and somebody else happy. I’m sorry it caused pain.”

In a strange twist, Laura and Angelina had a past connection; Laura had babysat Angelina when they were children, according to Yahoo.

Laura Dern’s father, Bruce Dern, recalled a time when Laura babysat Angelina Jolie. He explained that since he and Jon Voight were working on the movie “Coming Home” in 1978, Laura, who was about 8 years old at the time, watched 2-year-old Angelina at director Hal Ashby’s house.

After Laura and Billy Bob broke up, Laura received support from her friend Melissa Etheridge. Melissa shared on Andy Cohen’s SiriusXM radio show that she helped Laura move out of her home with Billy Bob, even having to break into their house to retrieve Laura’s belongings. Melissa added that she had witnessed some of the difficulties Laura faced due to Billy Bob’s relationship with Angelina.

Following these events, Laura moved on with her life. She married Ben Harper and has two children with him, and has also been linked to former NBA player Baron Davis.

Billy Bob and Angelina divorced in 2002. Billy Bob decided to avoid dating celebrities after this, seeking a quieter life. He later married a puppeteer in 2014, aiming for more privacy.

My Brother Kept Insulting My Husband for Being “Just an Electrician”, I Wanted to Teach Him a Lesson, but Karma Did It Better

Growing up, my brother and I couldn’t be more different. Even though we were born into a family of successful professionals, our personalities and paths diverged. While I ended up marrying a successful electrician, my brother, Jack, never quite shook off his lawyer persona.

Our upbringing was comfortable, thanks to our hardworking parents. Dad ran his own business, and Mom was a brain surgeon. But Jack always had a knack for flaunting his wealth, despite never making the effort to start his own law firm.

In contrast, I preferred a more low-key lifestyle, running my own successful business. My husband, Mark, was the real success story, though. He was not just an electrician but a savvy businessman who had attended business school to turn his skills into a thriving enterprise.

Despite our success, we kept our wealth private and lived modestly. Mark was particularly generous, channeling a significant portion of his income into charity and investments.

Our family dynamics came to a head one day when Jack couldn’t resist bragging about his lavish lifestyle and poking fun at Mark’s profession. It was the final straw for me, but before I could teach him a lesson, karma stepped in.

During a family barbecue, Jack’s beloved Porsche was repossessed, revealing his financial downfall. He had lost his job and was struggling to make ends meet. It was a humbling experience for him, and he realized the value of hard work and humility.

In the end, Mark offered Jack a job at his business, teaching him the value of honest work. Jack accepted the offer, and with time, he transformed into a better person, leaving behind his arrogant ways.

Life has a funny way of teaching us lessons when we least expect it. Jack’s downfall was a wake-up call for him, and with the support of our family, he was able to turn his life around for the better.
