Since her separation from Brad Pitt in 2016, Angelina Jolie’s romantic life has been surprisingly muted. While rumors have circulated about her connections with The Weeknd and rapper Akala, there has been little concrete news about her dating life. In contrast, Pitt seems to be thriving in his current relationship with jeweler Ines de Ramon, which has reportedly grown serious since they started dating in 2022. According to a source, “They are incredibly happy together,” indicating that their relationship has long-term potential.
Recently, there were suggestions linking Jolie to Akala. However, sources from InTouch Weekly stated that while Jolie may be open to dating, she is cautious about who enters her life. A friend shared that she will prioritize her six children and insists on being courted properly after her challenging experiences post-divorce. Interestingly, it has been clarified that Jolie and Akala were never romantically involved, as he is currently dating talent manager Chanelle Newman.
Jolie has also discussed the reasons for her lack of public relationships since her divorce from Pitt.
Angelina Jolie is still in the process of healing
In a 2023 interview with The Wall Street Journal regarding her film “Maria,” Angelina Jolie shared insights about her current relationship status. She admitted to lacking a social life and expressed that, at the moment, none of her close friends are romantically involved, noting that many are refugees. Jolie emphasized that her children are her primary focus and the most significant people in her life. She stated, “We’re seven very different people, which is our strength,” referring to her family’s dynamic with her three adopted and three biological children.
Addressing her tumultuous divorce from Brad Pitt, Jolie recounted the emotional toll it took on her and the family. The couple’s legal disputes concerning their shared assets, including Château Miraval, remain unresolved, complicating their separation. Jolie stated, “We had to heal,” reflecting on the journey of recovery for both herself and her kids.
Further insights reveal that Jolie has struggled with the fallout from their difficult split, with sources noting that even after nearly a decade, she remains hesitant to date again, feeling somewhat ‘frozen’ by the experience.
