Billy initially broke his silence on the blood vial lockets in 2014, describing that they were lockets which contained a percentage of blood in them. “[A] vial of blood is extremely basic. Angie got back one day with a set she purchased,” he stated while speaking at Loyola Marymount University’s School of Movie & & Tv, according toE! News “You understand those lockets you purchase that are clear and you put a photo of your grannie in it or something like that and use it around your neck? That’s what it was.”

He included: “She believed it would be intriguing and romantic if we took a little razor blade and sliced our fingers, smeared a little blood on these lockets, and you use it around your neck similar to you use your daughter or son’s child hair in one. Very same thing. From that, we were using quart containers of blood around our necks.”

Billy, who has actually been wed 6 times, and Angelina initially satisfied in 1999 while shooting Pressing Tin They got married a year later on in Las Vegas, however their marital relationship just lasted 2 years before they separated in 2003.
