Gwyneth Paltrow has discussed her relationship with Brad Pitt in the 1990s saying he was too good for her, and she was definitely in love with him.

The actress, who recently consciously uncoupled from her Coldplay frontman husband Chris Martin, told Howard Stern of her 3-year-long relationship with Pitt, "I definitely fell in love with him.

"He was so gorgeous and sweet. I mean, he was Brad Pitt!"

Speaking about the reason for their split she said, "I was such a kid - I was 22 when we met. It's taken me until 40 to get my head out of my arse.  You can't make that decision when you're 22 years old. I wasn't ready, and he was too good for me."
