Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt ignited a media storm when they first became a couple. Whether you adored, despised, or were indifferent to the pairing of two of Hollywood’s most gorgeous individuals, their images were ubiquitous in every publication.

Despite swirling rumors of infidelity and clandestine liaisons, this iconic Hollywood duo remained together for 12 years, raising their brood of three biological and three adopted children.

Angelina Jolie, star of “Tomb Raider,” already had two adopted sons, Maddox and Pax, when she crossed paths with Brad Pitt on the set of “Mr. & Mrs. Smith” in 2004, while Pitt was still married to Jennifer Aniston.

“Because of the film, we ended up being brought together to do all these crazy things, and I think we found this strange friendship and partnership that kind of just suddenly happened. I think a few months in I realized, ‘God, I can’t wait to get to work.’ … Anything we had to do with each other, we just found a lot of joy in it together and a lot of real teamwork. We just became kind of a pair,” Angelina Jolie revealed to People in 2006.

Despite swirling speculation about their relationship, Pitt and Jolie kept a low profile.

“We spent a lot of time contemplating and thinking and talking about what we both wanted in life and realized that we wanted very, very similar things,” Angelina shared.

In 2005, Angelina adopted Zahara Marley from Ethiopia, and Brad Pitt later co-adopted her in 2006.

Their union was solidified in 2006 when Angelina announced her pregnancy with Brad’s child, prompting them to travel to Namibia for the birth to evade media frenzy.

The birth of their daughter, Shiloh Nouvel, on May 27, 2006, became global news, with the first picture of the child fetching a staggering $1 million.

While Shiloh’s birth came under intense media scrutiny, her parents worked tirelessly to safeguard their children’s privacy.

Despite their divorce in 2019, Brad and Angelina maintain a strong co-parenting relationship, with Brad taking immense pride in his children.

Shiloh, who turned heads at the UK premiere of Marvel’s “Eternals” in 2011, has drawn attention for her choice of attire, often borrowing her mother’s dresses.

Angelina Jolie’s revelation in 2020 that Shiloh underwent hip surgery underscored the importance of valuing and caring for girls.

Through it all, Brad and Angelina’s unwavering support for Shiloh’s choices in clothing and hairstyle sets a remarkable example of allowing their child to express themselves authentically.
