Mike Tyson Discusses His 'Love Triangle' With Ex-Wife Robin Givens And Brad Pitt
Mike Tyson recently opened up about his “love triangle” with ex-wife Robin Givens and Brad Pitt.
In an interview on the Yahoo Sports show "In Depth with Graham Bensinger," the former boxing champ said he continued having sex with Givens as they divorced in 1988, while she was also in a relationship with Pitt.
Tyson said he would describe Givens as "a pig" who was stealing his money to his lawyers, before heading to her home for sex. During one such incident, he discovered the Pitt-Givens liaisons.
"I was getting a divorce. I was going to my lawyer's office to divorce her that day but I wanted to sneak in a quickie," Tyson told Bensinger.
"This particular day, someone beat me to the punch. … I guess Brad got there earlier than I did. I was mad as hell. You should've saw his face when he saw me."
Tyson and Givens married in February 1988, during the height of his boxing career when he was estimated to be worth $50 million.
Givens filed for divorce in just three months, claiming violence, spousal abuse and mental instability on Tyson’s part.
Many accused Givens of having married Tyson solely for the money. According to the Daily Mail, she made off with more than $10 million in the divorce settlement.
Tyson has stated in prior interviews that Pitt was not the superstar actor he is today when he was with Givens.
“He was just some little beach-bum-looking dude. 'Hey dude' kind of guy,” he told Global Grind in April.
The boxer insists that he no longer holds any ill will against Pitt.
"I hope Brad doesn't think I'm mad at him," Tyson said. "I'm not mad at this guy, no way."
