Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, who [tied the knot](http://time.com/3206154/angelina-jolie-brad-pitt-married/) over the weekend amid friends and family in France, have been together for about a decade and are raising six children together. And though the beginning of their relationship was fraught with scandal — they met and fell in love on the set of 2005’s _Mr. and Mrs. Smith,_ when Pitt was still married to Jennifer Aniston — the waters have appeared, to admiring fans at any rate, to be smooth ever since. Still, before they came together, Pitt and Jolie had some rocky romances over the years — some strange (Billy Bob Thornton and Angelina’s wearing each other’s blood in vials), some irritating (Gwyneth Paltrow and Brad’s matching hairstyles), and some forgotten (Brad Pitt dated Robin Givens?). Here’s a gallery that raises a glass to the phrase, what’s past is prologue.  Brad Pitt and Robin Givens dated after he had a small role on her sitcom Head of Class. Taken in 1989 by Mike Tyson during his divorce from Givens. Vinnie Zuffante—Archive Photos/Getty Images  Pitt was briefly engaged to actress Dorothy Schoelen after the two co-starred on Cutting Class before breaking it off in 1989.

Tammie Arroyo—Getty Images  Pitt and Jennifer Aniston met in 1998 and tied the knot it a private Malibu ceremony in 2000\. The "it" couple proved they weren't perfect and divorced in 2005. Eric Gaillar—Reuters/Corbis  Angelina Jolie married Hackers costar Johnny Lee Miller in 1996 while wearing a shirt with his name scrawled in blood. The two separated in 1997 and divorced in 1999.
