Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie and Jennifer Aniston reportedly end infamous love triangle as they pursue fresh starts

Hollywood's most enduring love triangle appears to be quieting, as Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston recalibrate their lives away from Los Angeles. After a 25-year arc of reported hookups, marriages and splits, the trio now appears to be taking steps to live more separate lives, with Jolie reportedly planning a global relocation once her youngest children turn 18 next year.

Angelina Jolie, 50, is planning to sell her Los Feliz estate, a six-bedroom, 10-bathroom mansion once owned by Cecil B. DeMille, for about $24.5 million and move abroad in the coming years, according to sources familiar with her plans. Jolie has previously said she felt “stuck” in LA because of child-custody arrangements with Pitt, telling the Hollywood Reporter that she would leave once Knox and Vivienne turn 18.

The actress bought the historic Los Feliz property in 2017 and has long maintained ties to Cambodia, where she owns a Battambang estate. In recent months, Jolie is said to be lining up potential relocation abroad, with Cambodia cited as a likely base for humanitarian work and family life. In a move some observers view as symbolic, Jolie has quietly set up two Delaware-registered companies, Atticus Six Inc and Atticus J LLC, and has scrubbed Pitt’s name from their joint charity, the Maddox Jolie-Pitt Foundation, which is now simply the Maddox Foundation. Jolie has also spoken of seeking a life beyond Los Angeles due to custody arrangements and a desire for more privacy once her children reach adulthood, noting that she would leave “as soon as [the twins Knox and Vivienne turn] 18.”

Meanwhile, both Pitt and Aniston are reportedly staying stateside, though each has been spending more time away from LA while maintaining a foothold in the region. Pitt’s current main residence is a Carmel, California estate known as Seaward, a Greene and Greene–style home purchased outright for about $40 million in 2022. The property has been described by locals as a private oasis that suits Pitt’s taste for architecture and security. In June, Pitt, 61, was photographed spending time at Seaward with girlfriend Ines de Ramon ahead of the summer premiere of his film F1, with residents noting regular sightings of the couple in town.

Pitt is also selling his Los Feliz three-bedroom, two-bath home, which he bought in March 2023 from oil heiress Aileen Getty for about $5.5 million, as part of a broader shift away from LA. The actor additionally recently acquired a six-bedroom Hollywood Hills house for about $12 million from Killers guitarist Dave Keuning, a purchase described by a source as driven by enhanced security and privacy due to its larger footprint.

Jennifer Aniston, 56, has likewise signaled a recalibration of her LA footprint. The Friends star is reportedly making her $15 million Montecito residence her main base, a development that aligns with her desire for more space and some distance from the city’s bustle. Aniston has also quietly expanded her Bel Air footprint by purchasing the neighboring house for $7.25 million in January under a company name that nods to her pets, InThreeDogsWeTrust. The 4,320-square-foot home includes five bedrooms, a pool and solar panels, and appears to be part of a privacy-focused strategy rather than a mere investment.

Aniston has own interests in Bel Air beyond the newly acquired neighbor home and remains the owner of a separate Bel Air property valued at around $21 million. She has publicly discussed her security concerns after a May incident in which a stalker rammed the gates of her Bel Air mansion, events that have spurred broader conversations in Hollywood about celebrity protection. People familiar with her plans say she intends to keep Montecito as her primary base, while continuing to spend significant time in Los Angeles as work and family obligations require.

The broader pattern among A-list stars also reflects a shift away from Los Angeles, with other prominent figures reportedly relocating or exploring homes abroad. The Daily Mail notes a trend of high-profile movers, including Ellen DeGeneres and Jay-Z and Beyoncé, who are among those considering newer country or international locales. Experts say motivations for such moves can include security, privacy and lifestyle considerations, as well as the desire for more extreme climate and fire risk resilience following recent wildfires in Southern California.

Security concerns have grown more acute for celebrities as stalking incidents and trespass attempts become more frequent. TorchStone, a security firm that provides protection for high-profile figures, has warned that “Intimacy Seeking Stalkers”—people drawn into delusional relationships with their target—pose rising threats. The firm advised clients to hire residential security and protective intelligence teams, noting that even sturdy walls and gates can be insufficient against a determined intruder. The advisory underscores the risks that accompany public life for Pitt, Jolie and Aniston, even as they pursue fresh chapters away from the city that helped shape their careers.

The evolving geography of Pitt, Jolie and Aniston does not diminish their cultural footprint. Each remains active in film and philanthropy, and insiders stress that the move away from LA reflects a constellation of personal priorities rather than a simple break from Hollywood history. Jolie’s decision to restructure her foundation and pursue relocation abroad suggests a renewed focus on humanitarian work and family, while Pitt and Aniston’s moves appear aimed at securing privacy and creating sustainable bases that suit their current professional and personal needs.

As the trio reorients their lives, public fascination with their intertwined pasts endures. The narrative of Hollywood’s most famous triangle has shifted from a shared residence to a shared legacy, with the next chapters to be written across continents and coastlines. The pace and direction of their moves will likely continue to attract scrutiny from fans, industry watchers and tabloids alike, even as each pursues individual paths toward fresh starts.
