Nearly 10 years after divorcing Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie said she has not yet started a new relationship. The Hollywood star shared that most of her time in recent years has been spent raising 6 children and regaining balance in life.
On the occasion of the premiere of the movie "Couture", Angelina Jolie shared rarely about her personal life after her broken marriage. According to the actress, children are always her top priority, causing her to almost put aside her love affair for a long time.
Honestly, I haven't dated anyone since I divorced nearly a decade ago," Angelina Jolie shared. The "Maleficent" star said that accompanying her children on their journey to adulthood has become the focus of her life, so she has not thought about building a new relationship.
In "Couture" by director Alice Winocour, Angelina Jolie plays Maxine Walker - an American filmmaker who was diagnosed with breast cancer while attending Paris Fashion Week. The health incident forces the character to look back at life, while facing choices related to family, love and the future.
Angelina Jolie said that this role made her think more about herself. Initially, she had difficulty imagining a mother who always puts her children first can still open her heart to a new relationship. However, the process of transforming into the character helped her realize that dedicating all her heart to family does not mean giving up her own happiness.
At the age of 51, Angelina Jolie believes that it is time to open a new chapter in life. "I think it's time for me to come back to life and be free again. In a way, life has hurt and broken me a bit," she expressed.
The Hollywood star also said that it was her children who added motivation for her to move forward. As her children grew up and had their own lives, she realized that she could still pursue personal goals, besides the role of mother.
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt got married in 2014 after many years of attachment. In September 2016, the actress filed for divorce, opening the process of resolving long-standing disputes related to child custody and common property. The case attracted public attention for many years before the two sides gradually completed legal procedures.
While Angelina Jolie still chooses a single life, Brad Pitt is currently in a stable relationship with his 29-year-younger girlfriend Ines de Ramon. The two began appearing together in 2022 and have appeared together many times at events recently.
