Angelina Jolie may have finalized her divorce from Brad Pitt, but she is in no rush to start a new relationship. After a challenging chapter in her life, the 49-year-old actress is focused on her six children — Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, and twins Knox and Vivienne — and finds fulfilment in her role as a mother. While not ruling out love in the future, Jolie is taking time to heal and isn’t actively seeking romance. Instead, she is enjoying her life in New York, spending quality time with her kids.

Angelina Jolie ‘hasn’t sworn off men’
A source told US Weekly, “It’s hard for her to trust men after what she went through with Brad. She hasn’t sworn off men, but she’s not looking for anything serious right now.” The insider noted that the Magnificient actor “doesn’t think she’ll ever get over the trauma” of her relationship with Pitt. The source added, “Angie has been spending more time in NYC, working on her fashion brand [Atelier Jolie] and expanding her humanitarian projects.”

Jolie and Pitt built their family after meeting on the set of Mr. & Mrs. Smith in 2005. The couple, often referred to as “Brangelina,” were together for over a decade before marrying in August 2014. However, just two years later, Jolie filed for divorce, marking the end of their high-profile relationship.
