In the latest issue of Vogue, Angelina Jolie has spoken for the 1^st time about how the relationship between her and Brad Pitt developed. The two met on the set of Mr & Mrs Smith in 2003. However Jolie dismisses claims that their relationship began at that time. Angelina states that at the time,

“It was clear he [Brad] was with his best friend, someone he loves and respects…I think we were the last two people who were looking for a relationship. I certainly wasn’t. I was quite content to be a single mom”.

She goes on to say how their friendship blossomed during filming,

“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.”

She goes on to say how their friendship blossomed during filming,She claims that the beautiful twosome remained just, “very, very good friends” until after Brad and ex-wife Jennifer Aniston announced their separation in January 2005,

“And then life developed in a way where we could be together, where it felt like something we would do, we should do”.

In fact Angelina credits her eldest son Maddox with helping them reach their final decision to be together, saying that one day Maddox,

“just out of the blue called him Dad…Do that was probably the most defining moment, when he decided that we would all be a family”

Angelina also referred to Jennifer during the interview saying that she would be willing to meet with her,

“but that would be her decision, and I would welcome it”.

I’m not sure how much the Friends star would welcome it though, Jen definitely ended up with the short end of the stick.  Her yummy ex husband is now shacked up with St. Angie and their gorgeous set of kids, while she’s single after Vince reportedly cheated on her.
