Billy Bob Thornton on why his marriage to Angelina Jolie didn't last

Billy Bob Thornton and Angelina Jolie were married for three years, but during their time together, he felt he couldn't live up to her standards. “I never felt good enough for her," the 61-year-old actor told GQ magazine about his fifth wife. ”She was always going off to meet with the U.N. people or the president or the adoption agencies."

CELEBRITY SPLITS 2016

The Bad Santa 2 star and the 41-year-old actress met on the set of the 1999 film Pushing Tin and were married a year later in 2000. The pair, who sported ink with each other's names and necklaces with their blood, eventually split in 2003, three months after Angelina adopted her first son Maddox from Cambodia.

Billy, who still has Angie's name tattooed on his body, revealed that he just wanted to stay home and "watch baseball" instead of mingling with celebrities and world leaders which wasn't something he was willing to change. "I'm real uncomfortable around rich and important people," he said. “I like how I am."
