Brad Pitt’s ex Juliette Lewis has revealed she is in a new relationship – seven years after splitting from Rage Against The Machine drummer Brad Wilk, Daily Mail reports.
Brad Pitt’s ex Juliette Lewis, who famously began dating Pitt in 1989 when she was 17 and he was 27, posted a series of loved-up snaps with her new boyfriend to mark Valentine’s Day.
The Oscar nominee, now 52, looked happy and radiant as she cozied up to the mystery younger man in the photos, which she captioned: ‘To my handsome Man.
‘Thank you for loving me and teaching me what HOME is..’
Brad Pitt’s ex Juliette Lewis did not publicly reveal the identity of her new man.
Her last known romance was a three-year relationship with Wilk from 2016-2019. The pair had met almost 25 years prior when her film Natural Born Killers was released.
‘My baby was in a band that had a song in a movie I did in 1994 called NBK [Natural Born Killers],’ Lewis wrote on Instagram back in 2016. ‘It was their first song they ever put in a movie. He was 24. I was 19. He went to a screening but I wasn’t there.
‘Here we are 20+ yrs later playing music together and creating a future. That’s wild unpredictable life stuff right there… Or fate? @bradwilk.’
Wilk’s estranged wife Selene Vigil-Wilk claimed he had an affair with Lewis which led to their divorce, allegations Wilk vehemently denied at the time.
Lewis first shot to fame in TV sitcoms like The Wonder Years and the Showtime Series Home Fires. She later won the role of Andrea Griswold in the movie National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation.
A slapstick and campy classic, she later said: ‘I didn’t know that’s a movie that’s gonna play every year. It’s very special and Chevy Chase was very kind to me.’
In 1989, at the age of 17, she starred in a TV movie Too Young To Die opposite Pitt who was ten years her senior.
Before Jennifer Aniston, before Angelina Jolie, it was Lewis who captured his heart. Their romance lasted on-and-off for four years, and according to Pitt, now 61, it is remembered with great fondness.
‘It was one of the greatest relationships I’ve ever been in,’ he once told Vanity Fair.
‘The problem is, we grow up with this vision that love conquers all, and that’s just not so, is it?’
In an exclusive interview with the Daily Mail in 2010, Lewis shared that her romantic relationship with Pitt is what many people only remember when they hear her name.
‘It amazes me that people are still fascinated that we went out,’ she shared.
‘All these years on, there’s nothing I can say or divulge about Brad Pitt that would be remotely interesting to any intelligent being.’
Further explaining: ‘I was a teenager at the time. It’s a lifetime away. I was in my high-school years and it was a wonderful, loving relationship with a fun, smart guy. Then it was over and he went on to become incredibly famous.’
Since Pitt, Lewis found love with skateboarder Steve Berra, whom she was married to for four years before officially splitting in 2003.
In 2003, she took almost a decade off from acting to pursue her other passions such as music.
The singer and songwriter toured with her rock band Juliette and the Licks, performing first in Johnny Depp’s Viper Room and later all over the country and abroad.
