Overview
- Jolie told Yahoo Entertainment that she has not dated since her 2016 separation from Brad Pitt and that she has concentrated on parenting rather than romance.
- She made the comments while promoting the film Couture, saying the role helped her see how a working parent can balance professional and personal needs.
- Jolie said her older children are encouraging her to rediscover parts of herself and that a revived “fighting spirit” has returned as they grow more independent.
- The split produced a long legal fight that news reports say was finalized in 2024 and included several children legally or symbolically distancing themselves from Pitt by dropping his surname.
- Unnamed sources quoted by outlets say Jolie is not seeking a serious relationship now, and the shift could mean a greater public focus on her career and family as her children reach adulthood.
