Angelina Jolie Thinks She Is ‘Undateable’?

Last year, a tabloid had claimed that Angelina Jolie considered herself to be “undateable” following her split from Brad Pitt. Gossip Cop wasn’t so sure that these words came out of the actress’s mouth. Today, we’re taking a look back at the report and what we uncovered.
Angelina Jolie Can’t Get A Man?In 2020, the National Enquirer declared that Jolie was complaining that she couldn’t get a guy. The tabloid wrote that the actress had told friends that she was being painted as the “bad guy” amid her divorce from Pitt and no man in Hollywood wanted to go near her. Gossip Cop can confirm that Jolie has gotten slack from the media ever since it was announced that she and Pitt were breaking up. However, the idea that “no man” didn’t want to go near her was a bit far-fetched.
Angelina Will Always Be The ‘Bad Guy?’ A source told the magazine that “The guys in Hollywood tend to steer clear of women who could be seen as trouble later on. A lot of people think Angie is intimidating and mean-spirited after what she put Brad through.” Again, we’ve seen plenty of narratives depicting Jolie as a vengeful ex-wife, but that still didn’t quite convince us that the actress outright claimed she undateable. From there, the publication brought Jennifer Aniston into the mix, with the insider alleging that Jolie was humiliated by Pitt’s romantic reunion with his first wife — even though it’s been clarified that Aniston and Pitt were not back together.“She was tired of seeing Brad find happiness when it’s been difficult for her to find anyone. She’s moaned to everyone that she’s undateable. Her lifestyle and her global humanitarian responsibilities do make it difficult for her to maintain a relationship. But her personality doesn’t do her any favors, either,” the sketchy insider added.
Angelina Jolie Is Focused On Her Family & Healing.At the time, Gossip Cop ran the report by an individual in Angelina Jolie’s camp who assured us that the story was incorrect. Since Jolie’s divorce and her on-going custody battle, the actress has remained focused on her six children, whom she shares with Brad Pitt. Recently, the actress did an interview with Vogue about her home life with her children and if she feels like she’s at a happy stage in her life.“I don’t know. The past few years have been pretty hard. I’ve been focusing on healing our family. It’s slowly coming back, like the ice melting and the blood returning to my body. But I’m not there. I’m not there yet. But I hope to be. I’m planning on it. I do like being older. I feel much more comfortable in my forties than I did when I was younger,” the actress stated.
The Tabloids Just Don’t Like Angelina Jolie.Divorce can be tough to deal with, but from what Jolie stated, it sounds like the actress is focused on mending her family more than anything else. And, as we’ve stated, the tabloids have vilified the actress countlessly and concocted disgusting reports about her. For instance, last year, the Enquirer also alleged that Jolie was starving herself. The magazine also asserted that Jolie was putting Pitt through hell just to see his kids.

The actress said she has been focusing on "healing our family" after her divorce with Brad Pitt.Angelina Jolie has had a tough time these past few years, given her divorce with long-time partner Brad Pitt and the subsequent custody battle for their children which is underway even today. The actress is looking forward to moving past these times and feels she would be in a much better place when she is in her 50s.The Hollywood star, who will celebrate her 46th birthday in June this year, opened up about her personal life while speaking to British Vogue for its March cover issue. When asked if she feels she is at a "happy stage" in her life, Jolie said: "I don't know. The past few years have been pretty hard. I've been focusing on healing our family. It's slowly coming back, like the ice melting and the blood returning to my body." The "Maleficent" actress added that she has not yet reached the end of this journey of healing, but hopes to be there and is "planning on it.""I do like being older. I feel much more comfortable in my forties than I did when I was younger. Maybe because... I don't know... maybe because my mom didn't live very long, so there's something about age that feels like a victory instead of a sadness for me," she explained."So I like it," the mother-of-six said about growing older, noting that she has a strong belief she is going to hit her stride in her fifties. She added: "Though we were on the trampoline the other day, and the children said, "No, Mom, don't do that. You'll hurt yourself." And I thought, "God, isn't that funny?" There was a day I was an action star, and now the kids are telling me to get off the trampoline because I'll hurt myself."The actress is currently living with her six children- Maddox, 19, Pax, 17, Zahara, 16, John (Shiloh), 14, and 12-year-old twins Vivienne and Knox, at her Los Feliz estate, a compound formerly belonging to Hollywood legend Cecil B. DeMille, who also had legendary comic actor Charlie Chaplin as his neighbour. Jolie said that she took the decision to move into the estate because she wanted her children to be close to their father Brad Pitt, who lives only five minutes away."I felt a little pressure moving in. Like I had snuck into where DeMille and Chaplin would hang out. I love most that there is no entertainment room, but lots of pathways and places to walk and think. I feel very fortunate we have that at this time," she said about isolating at the iconic mansion during the coronavirus pandemic.

Angelina and Brad - the end game: ALISON BOSHOFF on Jolie's claims to have video that PROVES 'domestic violence' – as private jet row takes divorce war to new heights

The legal battle started four-and-a-half years ago and has lasted more than twice as long as their marriage.Now it seems the split between Hollywood stars Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie has entered a bitter ‘endgame’ phase.Documents filed this week by Miss Jolie, 45, indicate that not only will she again accuse Pitt, 57, of domestic violence when their custody case comes to court this year, but that she intends to prove this with video recordings and testimony from their six children.What’s not in dispute is that the fallout has strained Pitt’s relationship with his children. Tellingly, his eldest adopted son, Maddox, 19, is said to no longer use Pitt as his last name, and wants to legally change it.It is far from the only legal bombshell for Pitt to contend with.Miss Jolie’s latest memorandum was filed to court ‘under seal’, meaning it is private and cannot be viewed by the public. However, its title gives a lot away: ‘Offer of Proof and authority in support thereof re: Testimony regarding domestic violence.’The alleged violence is thought to relate to an incident aboard a private plane taking the family from Paris to Minnesota overnight on September 14, 2016 – and is said to have prompted their split.Five days later, Miss Jolie announced they were separating and she was seeking a divorce ‘for the health of the family’.She asked for full custody of their six children: adopted sons Maddox and 17-year-old Pax, adopted daughter Zahara, 16, and the couple’s three children together, Shiloh, 14, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 12.Pitt demanded a 50/50 split and the issue is finally due to go to court in Los Angeles this year.At the outset, Miss Jolie’s manager Geyer Kosinski hinted at domestic violence when he remarked: ‘Angelina will always do what is in the best interest to protect her children.’Behind the scenes, her team of friends told me that she had felt compelled to act after an ‘incident’ on the plane.The role of Maddox, then 15, was widely raised. One source said that Pitt ‘attacked’ Maddox. Others said that Pitt and Miss Jolie argued and Maddox jumped in to defend her verbally. Pitt then supposedly ‘lunged’ at the boy.
Sources were quoted describing a ‘parent-child argument which was not handled in the right way’.One said: ‘Brad is emphatic that it did not reach the level of physical abuse, that no one was physically harmed. 'He did not hit his child in the face in any way. He did not do that; he is emphatic about that. He put his hands on him, yes, because the confrontation was spiralling out of control.’The FBI and the Department of Children and Family Services investigated but neither found Pitt was a danger to the children.At the time, it was reported by US Weekly magazine that Miss Jolie had video of the incident on the plane, possibly taken by a third party such as a bodyguard, which showed Pitt ‘looking drunk’ and ‘yelling.’American family law expert Evie P Jeang said this week of the filing: ‘If Angelina has more documentation to prove domestic violence towards her or the children, she can submit it as a supplemental offer to prove in trial.‘She can say these are the documentations in addition to what she already presented. This could mean it’s a more recent instance of domestic violence, or further documentation related to what was presented before.’A friend of Pitt told me: ‘He is a flawed human being, like we all are, but a very good father and a nice guy.’Another source said: ‘Over the past four-and-a-half years there have been a number of claims made by Angelina that have been reviewed and not substantiated.‘The children have been used by Angelina to hurt Brad before and this is more of that behaviour. This leaking of documents by her fourth or fifth set of lawyers has been done to hurt Brad.’Miss Jolie’s lawyers also filed a memo to the court of ‘proof and support’ under seal: ‘RE: Testimony of minor children.’This would cover the five younger children, and if granted allow them to give evidence to the custody hearing.
Only Maddox, who is studying for a biochemistry degree in Korea, is an adult. He alone is understood to have declined all contact with Pitt since the split in 2016.t seems unlikely that Miss Jolie will succeed in getting this past the judge because crucially both parents have to agree if minor children give evidence.Pitt has already indicated he wants to keep the children out of the spotlight as far as possible.In December 2016 his legal team accused Miss Jolie of releasing sensitive details to the media through public court filings. He claimed that she ‘appears to be determined to ignore even agreed upon standards relating to the children’s best interest’.Miss Jolie’s team has also filed an under seal memo ‘of intent to offer video recording of the deposition of Ross Foster at trial’.Mr Foster is a bodyguard who worked for the couple and he is also on Pitt’s list of witnesses.However what Miss Jolie is saying here is that she has a video tape of a statement by him which she thinks will assist her case in gaining full custody of the children.She is also saying that she intends to offer ‘video recording of the deposition of respondent’ – who is Pitt.This is presumably because she believes that Pitt damns himself during it. The circumstances during which this deposition was taken are not known but it seems possible this may be the footage shot on the private jet during that altercation.How the romance between Hollywood’s hottest actors, which started in 2004 when they co-starred in Mr And Mrs Smith, broke down so quickly and with such animosity can be traced back to the time the couple ‘put each other through hell’ during the filming of By The Sea, a film about a marriage in crisis.
This was made in Malta directly after they wed in 2014.When it was released, Miss Jolie said: ‘Making the movie, we knew we were beating each other up. 'We knew we were giving each other tough days. But we agreed to see how far we could push each other.’ The actress added: ‘To be clear: We have fights and problems like any other couple. We have days when we drive each other absolutely mad and want space, but the problems in the movie aren’t our specific problems.’Directly after filming wrapped, they were pictured arguing on the terrace of their hotel suite in Sydney, Australia.Tension between the pair only increased. In 2017 they released a statement saying they were seeking mediation via a private judge.Pitt gave a tearful interview to GQ magazine in which he said that he had been drinking too much, and not listening enough, and now just wanted peace.Miss Jolie bought a £19million house around the corner from his home and there were reports that after court-appointed therapy they were ready to agree on custody. Pitt was said to have quietly completed a ‘VIP rehab’ and be attending both Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous.But it didn’t last. In 2018 Miss Jolie accused Pitt of not paying her ‘meaningful support’ since the split. He countered that he had loaned her nearly £6million plus almost £1million for bills.Her lawyer then announced that the couple had reached a custody agreement – but they hadn’t. All that had been agreed was to ratify a rolling arrangement.Moves were then made to split the divorce into two parts and attain single status even though issues of custody, access and finance remain unsettled. This happened in April 2019.Initially, Pitt was allowed to see the children only for supervised visits. Then shared custody was agreed and Miss Jolie was warned by a judge to stop snooping on cellphone contact between father and children. Currently, attempts are made to co-parent amicably using an app to help co-ordinate the children’s schedules.

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's son Maddox has testified against his father during the couple's contentious divorce and custody battle - offering a 'not very flattering' opinion about the actor.The university student, 19, has 'already given testimony as [an] adult in the ongoing custody dispute and it wasn't very flattering towards Brad', according to reports.A source also revealed that Maddox wants to legally remove 'Pitt' from his name, something his mother 'doesn't support.' An alleged altercation between Maddox and Brad in 2016 was said to have been the final straw for Jolie, 45, who is now 'prepared to provide proof of domestic abuse' in the divorce trial. The couple share Maddox, Zahara, 16, Pax, 17, Shiloh, 14, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 12, and are hashing out custody and financial arrangements in the trial, which will see their youngest children provide testimony if they give permission. He doesn’t use Pitt as his last name on documents that aren’t legal and instead uses Jolie,' the source told US Weekly. 'Maddox wants to legally change his last name to Jolie, which Angelina has said she doesn’t support.Documents obtained by The Blast reportedly show the actress, 45, has stated she is willing to offer 'proof and authority' in support of alleged domestic violence that occurred during her two year marriage to the star, 57. Soon after the couple filed for divorce in 2016, it was revealed that Brad was being investigated by the FBI and social services in LA amid reports he got 'verbally abusive and physical with his children' on a private jet yet he was cleared.A source told MailOnline: 'She has made similar allegations in the past which were investigated by the authorities and not substantiated.'The source added: 'This is the latest sad and desperate attempt to advance a false narrative at any cost. 'These have been the same attacks repeated for the past 4 ½ years and anyone who is perceived to be standing in the way can expect to have their credibility challenged.'MailOnline has contacted representatives for the couple for comment. After the 2016 incident, Brad was cleared of abuse allegations by the LA County Department Of Children And Family Services, as it was confirmed he had not committed child abuse when he got into a fight with Maddox aboard a private jet.
As well as detailing her domestic abuse claims, the documents show that the court is seeking permission from the couple for Shiloh, Knox, and Vivienne to testify. In October, the bitter divorce battle hit yet another bump in the road after the actress parted ways with one of her high-priced attorneys.Priya Sopori, an LA-based former federal prosecutor who has been working with Jolie's lead lawyer, Samantha DeJean, is out after filing a 'Notice of Withdrawal of Attorney of Record' with LA Superior Court, DailyMail.com has learned.Sopori is a partner with California law firm Greenberg Glusker LLP. It is not known whether Jolie - who is fighting Pitt's efforts to win 50/50 custody of their children - fired Sopori or if the attorney made the decision to quit.But the change in her high profile team at this late stage signals Jolie's resolve to get what she wants has only hardened.A source close to Jolie told DailyMail.com: 'Angelina has fought tooth and nail to get what she wants in this divorce, when it comes to her kids she won't back down...'She's paying her legal team a fortune, so if she believes one of her lawyers needs to go she won't hesitate to pull the trigger.'It's not the first time the Girl, Interrupted star has parted company with a lawyer she's hired during the long-running five year divorce saga.In 2018, superstar LA divorce attorney Laura Wasser - whose client list reads like a Who's Who of Hollywood - stopped working for Jolie when the actress's legal fight with Pitt, 56, reportedly became too 'venomous and nasty.'Wasser - who has represented Johnny Depp, Kim Kardashian, Ryan Reynolds, Stevie Wonder, Christina Aguilera, Ashton Kutcher and many other stars - has earned a reputation as a lawyer who tries to take the sting out of break-ups by promoting compromise between warring couples and shared custody of children.So it was thought at the time that Jolie's hard-nosed attitude toward Pitt was not a good fit with Wasser's more gentle, conciliatory approach.
After Wasser, Jolie hired San Francisco-based DeJean who is now the only lawyer representing her in the long-running custody dispute with Pitt.The former couple are dragging security experts from two continents, an entourage of personal assistants and bodyguards, a former Jolie co-star and an army of child psychologists and doctors to give evidence in an upcoming custody trial that's expected to be held in private.Lists of witnesses filed in a Los Angeles court and seen by DailyMail.com reveal 21 people who will be testifying in the movie stars' legal fight over their children, Pax, 16, Zahara, 15, Shiloh, 14, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 12.

Brad has also listed his ex-wife's personal assistant Michael Ofstedahl and Jolie's friend and Girl, Interrupted costar Jillian Armenante as witnesses – a sign that Pitt is willing to pull out all the stops to win joint custody.

The couple married in France in 2014 after 10 years of dating, but split two years later in September 2016.In the period that followed their initial separation in 2016, the pair duked it out over custody and financial arrangements, with Brad arguing he'd provided more than adequate funding but Angie demanding a greater share of his $300m fortune. A big factor in the couple's battle is Jolie's desire to move the children abroad.Pitt, is vehemently opposed to her moving them to a foreign country.In 2019, Angelina admitted: 'I would love to live abroad and will do so as soon as my children are 18. Right now, I'm having to base where their father chooses to live.'In June 2019, Brad – who admitted being an alcoholic at the time of their split but is now recovered – secured a legal breakthrough when a judge ruled he would be permitted more time with the children.

Jolie said she stands by her choice to leave Pitt.'It was the right decision,' the actress told Vogue in June 2020.'I continue to focus on their (the kids') healing. Some have taken advantage of my silence, and the children see lies about themselves in the media, but I remind them that they know their own truth and their own minds.'The custody trial was due to start late last year but it was delayed after Angelina asked for the private judge to be replaced, claiming that he 'failed to disclose' that he was working other cases with one of Brad's lawyers.
