Brad Pitt does not want to marry current partner Angelina Jolie because he is scared of going through a second divorce, according to a source.

The Burn After Reading star has reportedly ruled out walking down the aisle again after the pain caused by his 2005 split from Jennifer Aniston.

"Brad's divorce from Jennifer was painful. It was hard on his parents and he considers it a major failure in his life," an insider told Life And Style Weekly magazine.

"His big excuse for not marrying Angelina is that he hates even the possibility of something like that happening again."

Reports that Pitt and Jolie had secretly married earlier this year were recently refuted, with a source branding them "complete and total bulls**t".
