Angelina Jolie<\/a> is ready to get back out there.<\/p>\n In a new conversation with<\/a> Yahoo Entertainment, the actress revealed that she hasn\u2019t dated since splitting with Brad Pitt<\/a>. Jolie filed for divorce from her ex in 2016 after almost 12 years together, though they didn\u2019t settle until 2024.<\/p>\n \u201cI haven’t dated or been with anyone since I divorced a decade ago, right?\u201d she told the outlet. \u201cSo 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 and my family.\u201d<\/p>\n However, Jolie\u2019s next film, Couture<\/em>, has her rethinking romance. In the drama, she portrays an American film director who, after recently receiving her breast cancer diagnosis, meets a new love while working on a project in Europe.<\/p>\n COMPLEX SHOP:<\/b> Shop the brands you love, anytime and anywhere.

Obsess.<\/a><\/p>\n \u201cIt took me a second to say, \u2018Look, 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.’ And that in fact, it might be very healing for her,\u201d Jolie said of her character.<\/p>\n Jolie also has her own history with cancer. In 2013, she underwent a mastectomy after discovering that she had the BRCA1 gene, meaning she had an elevated risk of developing breast cancer. Her mother, actress Marcheline Bertrand, died from the disease in 2007 when she was 56.<\/p>\n \u201cLife has broken me a little,\u201d Jolie confessed. \u201cI have to live again. Be free again.\u201d<\/p>\n She shared that her three daughters, Zahara, Shiloh, and Vivienne, have urged her to get back out there.<\/p>\n \u201cThey speak to me as young women, and I see what I want for them,\u201d the 51-year-old said. \u201cI see what I don’t want them to lose and what I want them to hold on to. And in a way, this is reminding me of what I might have lost myself.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI think they kind of want me now to not just be \u2018Mom,’ \u201d she said. \u201cThere’s a different room for me to be that woman again, that’s not just a mom.<\/p>\n In addition to three daughters, Jolie and Pitt also share three sons: Maddox, Pax and Knox. While the celebrity exes\u2019 divorce was only recently finalized, they are still in a legal battle over the French winery<\/a> they used to own together, Ch\u00e2teau Miraval.<\/p>\n <\/a> Brad Pitt Secures Legal Victory Amid Winery Dispute With Angelina Jolie<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n <\/a> Angelina Jolie Credits Her Kids as She Says Her ‘Fighting Spirit is Finally Back’<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n <\/a> Zahara Jolie Files to Legally Drop ‘Pitt’ From Her Name<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n ‘The One Piece’ Set for 2027 Premiere as Netflix Unveils Annecy Animation Slate<\/a><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n ‘GTA VI’ Physical Version Doesn’t Sound Like It’ll Be ‘Physical’ at All, Perplexing Fans<\/a><\/i><\/b><\/p>\nRelated News<\/h3>\n
