Brad Pitt's Treasure Hunting Story Goes Viral

The 58-year-old Academy Award-winning actor told a story about treasure hunting at his estate, and it’s getting a lot of traction on social media.

In an interview with GQ, in which he also discussed getting sober and quitting cigarettes.

Brad opened up about his wine property in Provence, France, the Château Miraval, where he and ex Angelina Jolie also got married in 2014.

Brad claims he was approached by a man “a few years ago,” who told him the château had millions of dollars in buried gold on the grounds.

“I got obsessed,” he admitted. “Like for a year, this was all I could think about, just the excitement of it all.

Sadly, the treasure never turned up, and the man who made the claim was “ultimately seeking money for some kind of radar company, an investment opportunity.”
