Angelina Jolie’s divorce from Brad Pitt may be finalized, but the actress isn’t interested in jumping into a new relationship anytime soon.
“It’s hard for her to trust men after what she went through with Brad,” a source exclusively shares in the latest issue of Us Weekly. “She hasn’t sworn off men, but she’s not looking for anything serious right now.”
The insider notes that Jolie, 49, “doesn’t think she’ll ever get over the trauma” of her relationship with Pitt, 61. “She’s not looking for love right now,” the source says, adding that Jolie currently feels “fulfilled.”
Jolie, the insider tells Us, is “content with her children and life.” (The Oscar winner shares her six kids — Maddox, 23, Pax, 21, Zahara, 20, Shiloh, 18, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 16, with Pitt.)

For now, Jolie is busy enjoying time with her kids in the Big Apple by attending art exhibits and Broadway shows. “Angie has been spending more time in NYC, working on her fashion brand [Atelier Jolie] and expanding her humanitarian projects,” says the source.
Jolie and Pitt built their large brood after falling in love on the set of 2005’s Mr. & Mrs. Smith. The two were together for more than a decade before officially tying the knot in August 2014. Two years later, however, Jolie filed for divorce.
“This decision was made for the health of the family,” her rep told Us in a September 2016 statement. “She will not be commenting at this time, and asks that the family be given their privacy during this difficult time.”
Amid their split, Pitt was investigated by the Los Angeles County Department of Children after Jolie claimed he was physically and emotionally abusive toward her and their kids during a 2016 flight from France to California. Pitt, who denied his ex’s allegations, was cleared of any wrongdoing and didn’t face any charges.
Angelina Jolie Calls Liars Her ‘Pet Peeve’ After Brad Pitt Divorce
Though the former spouses were declared legally single in 2019, they were locked in legal drama over custody issues and their French winery, Château Miraval, for several years. After eight years of ups and downs, the two finalized their divorce in December 2024.
“More than eight years ago, Angelina filed for divorce from Mr. Pitt. She and the children left all of the properties they had shared with Mr. Pitt, and since that time she has focused on finding peace and healing for their family,” Jolie’s lawyer, James Simon, told Us in a statement. “This is just one part of a long ongoing process that started eight years ago. Frankly, Angelina is exhausted, but she is relieved this one part is over.” (Pitt’s rep declined to comment at the time.)
Since finalizing their split, Jolie has stepped out at several public events with Zahara, including the Palm Springs International Film Awards and the 2025 Golden Globes last month.
Pitt, meanwhile, has been enjoying life with his girlfriend of two years, Ines de Ramon. “Brad wants to get his life [back] on track and put this behind him,” a separate source exclusively shared in an Us cover story last month. “He can start over again.”
