Angelina Jolie, the 47-year-old actress, has been single for quite some time now after filing for divorce from her ex-husband, Brad Pitt in 2016.
Despite the couple being in a long-term relationship since 2005, their brief marriage resulted in significant drama in front of the world.
Following an infamous altercation in 2016, the couple parted ways, but they are still engaged in a lengthy legal battle regarding the custody of their minor children.
Additionally, a French winery lawsuit has added to their issues.
Despite these challenges, both have moved on with their lives, with Pitt already in a new relationship, while Jolie remains single.
Jolie has opened up about being picky in choosing her suitors, explaining that her high standards are to blame for her prolonged single status.
In a 2021 interview with Daily Pop, she shared, “I probably have a very long list [of ‘nos’]. I’ve been alone for a long time now.”
Back in 2018, an insider stated that Jolie was focusing on her children rather than dating anyone. She explained, “She will focus only on their children and being with them.
She has no interest in dating at all.” In the interview, Jolie praised her six kids, saying they are now mature and worry about her well-being.
“I’ve got to make sure mom’s OK,” she said.
Jolie shares six children with Pitt – Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, and twins Vivienne and Knox.
The former couple is still in a legal dispute regarding the custody of their children.
The pair had a notorious altercation on a private flight in 2016, leading to Jolie filing for divorce from Pitt.
Although authorities investigated the incident, no charges were pressed on Pitt at the time.
The couple is also involved in a Chateau Miraval winery lawsuit since 2021, which revealed further details about their 2016 fight.
As per reports, Jolie claimed that Pitt assaulted her and their children while they were on the plane, which escalated into a physical altercation.
Jolie alleged that Pitt “choked” her by grabbing her head and “shook her” during their fight.
He also allegedly poured wine on her while abusing her both physically and verbally.
While Pitt has been romantically linked with jewelry designer Ines de Ramon since late 2022, Jolie continues to focus on her children.
Despite the challenges and issues in her life, she remains optimistic and has said, “I’m looking forward to my fifties – I feel that I’m gonna hit my stride in my fifties.”
