Angelina Jolie Doesn’t Rule Out Relationships, But Trust Issues Remain Post-Divorce

Despite finalizing her divorce from Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie is not rushing to enter a new relationship. A source close to Jolie recently shared with Us Weekly that she finds it difficult to trust men after her past experiences with Pitt. "It’s hard for her to trust men after what she went through with Brad," the insider stated. "She hasn’t sworn off men, but she’s not looking for anything serious right now."

Jolie, now 49, feels that the trauma from her relationship with Pitt, who is 61, is something she may never fully overcome. The source expressed, "She’s not looking for love right now," and further emphasized that Jolie finds satisfaction in her current life.

Jolie feels "content with her children and life," shares the source, highlighting that she has six kids — Maddox, 23, Pax, 21, Zahara, 20, Shiloh, 18, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 16, whom she shares with Pitt.

Currently, Angelina Jolie is spending enjoyable moments with her children in New York City. They visit art exhibits and attend various Broadway shows together. "Angie has been spending more time in NYC," the insider revealed. "She is working on her fashion brand, Atelier Jolie, alongside her humanitarian efforts."

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt began their journey as a couple after starring in 2005’s Mr. & Mrs. Smith. Their relationship lasted over a decade, culminating in marriage in August 2014, though it did not last long. Jolie filed for divorce in 2016 as a decisive step for the family's well-being.

According to Jolie's representative, "This decision was made for the health of the family." They requested privacy during this challenging chapter. Amid the trouble, Pitt faced an investigation by the Los Angeles County Department of Children following allegations of emotional and physical abuse directed at Jolie and their children.

Brad Pitt has denied these claims and was ultimately cleared of any wrongdoing. Despite their legal separation in 2019, they remained entangled in custody issues and disputes regarding their French winery, Château Miraval.

"It has been a long process," remarked Jolie's attorney, James Simon, adding that Jolie seeks peace and healing for her family. "Right now, she is exhausted yet relieved that this part is finished."

Since wrapping up their divorce in December 2024, Jolie has attended public events with her daughter Zahara, including appearances at the Palm Springs International Film Awards and the recent Golden Globes.

Meanwhile, Pitt has moved on with his recent girlfriend, Ines de Ramon. A distinct source indicated that Brad "wants to get his life back on track" and is eager to move beyond the past.
