Angelina Jolie Shares Relationship Status After Brad Pitt, Why She’s Single

Angelina Jolie has not been looking for Mr. Right.

In fact, the Mr. & Mrs. Smith star admitted she hasn’t been prioritizing her love life following her split from ex-husband Brad Pitt, whom she first separated from in 2016 before finalizing their divorce in 2024.  

“To be candid, I haven’t dated since I divorced a decade ago,” Jolie told Yahoo! Entertainment in an interview published June 22. “So I kind of get in my head that that aspect of me is not centered in my life if I’m focusing on my children, my family.”

The mother to Maddox, 24, Pax, 22, Zahara, 21, Shiloh, 20, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 17, reflected on pursuing a relationship amid hardship while discussing Couture, her 2026 movie about a filmmaker who rediscovers herself after being diagnosed with breast cancer. 

“It took me a second to kind of say, ‘Well, she can also love her daughter and be dedicated to her daughter and also need this as a woman and receive this as a woman,'” Jolie said of her role, which she personally connected to given her 2013 preventative double mastectomy after uncovering she carried the BRCA1 gene mutation that indicates a genetic risk of cancer. “Maybe I’ve come around to being a little bit more the person I used to be.”
