Actress Angelina Jolie, 49, and rapper and activist Akala, 40, have been spotted together frequently lately, sparking romance rumors. And the question is, what if they really are in love?

Since her divorce, Angelina Jolie has been rumored to have dated four men. However, she has yet to officially confirm her relationship with any of them.

Most recently, over the weekend, the public caught the 40-year-old male artist attending a party in New York (USA) organized by Angelina Jolie’s brand Atelier Jolie. In photos taken at the event posted on Instagram, Akala appeared prominently with Angelina Jolie.

Rumors of a romance between the Hollywood actress and Akala grew when the couple were seen leaving a hotel together in Italy during the Venice International Film Festival in August 2024.

Last May, an eyewitness said Akala was very attentive and protective of Angelina Jolie’s children when they attended an event in Jamaica. In Touch also confirmed that six months later, they continued to have dinner together in Milan, Italy.

According to In Touch, Angelina and Akala are said to have been in a relationship for the past year. The 40-year-old man from London (England) is real name Kingslee James McLean Daley.

He met Angelina and their two daughters Zahara and Shiloh at the Calabash Literary Festival in Jamaica in May 2023. An eyewitness said that Akala was very protective of the children when she was with them. Six months later, Angelina and Akala had dinner together in Milan, Italy.

According to a close friend, the British rapper caught the eye of the famous actress because of the care and affection he showed her children. In addition, both have a passion for pursuing meaningful social activities, traveling and learning about culture together.

TMZ has denied rumors of a romance between Angelina and rapper Akala. According to the site’s source, the “Mr. and Mrs. Smith” actress has not entered a new relationship.

She and rapper Akala are just friends. In addition, the newspaper said, Akala has a girlfriend, named Chanelle. She was also present when her boyfriend and ex-wife Brad Pitt were photographed, but the paparazzi did not publish her picture, intentionally misleading the public.

According to a private source, Angelina is also close to Chanelle. The three have been friends for many years. People also confirmed that the famous actress is still single: “She and Akala are not dating. She is friends with him and his girlfriend, Chanelle, who was also there.”

Us Weekly also quoted a source on October 2 saying that Angelina and Akala are just close friends. The insider said that the Maleficent star is still single and focusing on work.

Angelina rarely shares her personal life publicly. In an interview with WSJ magazine in December 2023, she said she was still single and in the process of healing from her terrible breakup with Brad Pitt .

For the director of Without Blood, her 6 children are the closest people to her at the moment. They are not only mother and children but also close friends.

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt were together for 10 years before getting married in 2014. However, after only two years of living together, the couple divorced. Currently, they have not completed the divorce proceedings but are recognized by US law as single people.
