While Mark Billingham expressed how deeply Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie cared for their children, many of his comments about them were negative. Billingham even claimed that the public’s dislike of Pitt made guarding them a challenge. “People love her but hate him,” Billingham told The Sun. “You have to figure out a way of protecting them from all that. It was challenging, but interesting.” Billingham also claimed that they weren’t a socially savvy couple. “What surprised me was their low level of common sense,” added Billingham. “I found it crazy when they would ask me questions like, ‘How do I go down to that bar?’ and ‘What do I need to do to get there?” Billingham, however, stressed that the couple wasn’t stupid — just super out of touch.
2016 wasn’t the only time that Billingham has spoken about the couple. In July 2022, Billingham publicized his former salary from the since-divorced couple during an interview with This Is Money. “Yes, when I eventually left the military in 2007 and got a proper job I ended up as a bodyguard to celebrities such as Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, Russell Crowe and Michael Caine,” said Billingham about whether he’d ever earned “silly money.” He continued, “I earned really good money — three times as much as I was earning in the military. I think it was more than £10,000 a month.”
