Angelina Jolie struggles to trust men after Brad Pitt divorce, insider claims

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s romance once captivated Hollywood, but their highly publicized divorce and ongoing legal battle have left lasting scars. While fans once viewed them as the ultimate power couple, the reality behind the scenes was far more complex.

The Maleficent star, 49, is reportedly finding it difficult to open up to new relationships due to the trauma from her past with Pitt. A source told Us Weekly that Jolie is hesitant when it comes to dating.

"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 shared.

According to the source, Jolie is focusing on her career and humanitarian work instead of pursuing a relationship.

"Angie has been spending more time in NYC, working on her fashion brand [Atelier Jolie] and expanding her humanitarian projects," the source added.

What Really Happened Between Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie?

Jolie and Pitt’s legal battle, often dubbed “War of the Rosés”, has been ongoing since their 2016 split. In court filings, Jolie’s legal team alleged that Pitt was abusive even before the infamous plane incident that led to their divorce. However, Pitt has denied all allegations of abuse, and an FBI investigation resulted in no charges against him.
