2012年，皮特送上一枚6克拉、价值25万美元的钻戒和她订婚。2014年8月，她终于结婚了。祝福他们。
和布拉德皮特结婚，是她临终前必须完成的清单里的第一件事。
她有遗传性BRCAI基因突变，罹患乳癌风险高达87%，尽管已经接受双侧乳腺切除及乳房再造手术，以降低罹癌风险。但事情似乎并未向好的方向发展。朱莉估计自己只剩3-5年可以活，最久也活不过45岁。
朱莉在给《纽约时报》的文章称，自己的母亲与癌症搏斗了近10年，于2007年死于卵巢癌，享年56岁。包括她的外祖父、外祖母和舅舅，也都因癌症提早离开人间。这让朱莉笃定认为，做手术只是稍微延长她的生命。而在接受双侧乳腺切除手术的过程中，朱莉得到了皮特莫大的支持，这也是让她真正决定选择皮特作为自己终生伴侣的决定性原因。
对于皮特来说，这一切似乎都是命运。这位好莱坞浪子，在这段感情中得到的不只是寻常意义的爱和陪伴。这对全球最著名的爱侣的情路，只有他们自己最有发言权。皮特记录了茱莉生病以来的心路历程。
My wife got sick.She was constantlynervous because of problems at work,personal life, herfailures and problemswith children. She has lost 30 pounds and weighted about90 pounds in her 35years. She got very skinny, and was constantly crying.
She was not a happywoman. She hadsuffered from continuing headaches, heart pain and jammed nervesin her back andribs. She did not sleep well, falling asleep only in the morningand got tiredvery quickly during the day.
Our relationship wason the verge ofbreak up. Her beauty was leaving her somewhere, she had bagsunder her eyes, shewas poking her head, and stopped taking care of herself.She refused to shootthe films and rejected any role. I lost hope and thoughtthat we’ll get divorcedsoon…
But then I decidedto act on it. Afterall I’ve got the most beautiful woman on the earth. She isthe ideal of more thanhalf of men and women on earth, and I was the oneallowed to fall asleep next toher and to hug her shoulders.
I began to pepperher with flowers,kisses and complements. I surprised her and pleased everyminute. I gave herlots of gifts and lived just for her. I spoke in public onlyabout her. Iincorporated all themes in her direction. I praised her in frontof her own andour mutual friends. You won’t believe, but she has blossomed.She became evenbetter than before. She gained weight, was no longer nervousand she loved meeven more than ever.
I had no clue thatshe CAN love thatmuch.
And then I realizedone thing:"The woman is the reflection of her man"
妻子病了。来自工作和个人生活上的麻烦让她时常神经紧张，她与孩子们也无法好好相处，问题重重。35岁时，她瘦了30磅，体重只有90磅。这样使她看上去瘦骨嶙峋，她经常哭个不停。
快乐已经远离妻子。头疼、心脏疼痛、背部及肋骨神经不畅时时刻刻折磨着她。因此，她无法安睡，只能在早上短暂睡眠，白天就很容易疲倦。
我们徘徊在分手的边缘。美丽与她渐渐远离，她长了眼袋，并时时戳自己的脑袋，对自己的身体默不关心。更甚之，她拒绝拍电影，推掉所有角色。我开始绝望，感到我们马上要离婚了……
但是，我决心采取行动。毕竟，我拥有的是世界上最美丽的女人。世界上，她是一多半男人和女人眼中的完美女人。而我，可以和她同床共枕，相拥而眠。
我 开始用鲜花、热吻和赞美包围着她。每分钟，我都可以给她惊喜，让她开心。我给她很多礼物，并且只为了她而生活。再公共场合，我的话题只有她，方方面面，我 以她为中心。在她的和我们共同的朋友面前，我时时赞美她。真的无法相信，她如鲜花般开放，变得更加美丽迷人。她体重恢复了，不再神经兮兮。并且，她更加的 爱我，我原来竟不知道，她可以如此爱我。
于是，我意识到：女人是男人的镜子，你怎样对她，在她身上全都展现无遗。
——布拉德•皮特
愿信念可以战胜病魔 ，愿爱常在。
无论如何，祝他们新婚快乐。
