Angelina Jolie Makes Rare Statement on Friendship With Ex-Husband
At the Santa Barbara International Film Festival on Wednesday, Angelina Jolie made rare remarks about where she stands with her ex-husband (via People).
Jolie was speaking about her career with film critic Leonard Maltin while receiving the Maltin Modern Master Award when conversation turned to Hackers (1995), the cult-classic cyber-punk thriller in which she starred with her ex-husband Jonny Lee Miller. Jolie and Miller were married from 1996 until 1999.
"I was just saying to somebody, it's really funny because I think you're starting with Hackers, right?" Jolie said before Maltin rolled a clip from the movie. "Yeah, it's Jonny,' she continued. 'I just talked to him. I love that—I get to see my ex-husband with 2,000 people," Jolie laughed.Following the clip, Jolie called the experience of making the film—one of her first—'amazing.' 'It's so nice to see it," she said of the scene. "Actually, it's funny, I don't really watch my own films, and so I [don't] think I've seen it since the premiere,' she added.
Jolie then diverged and made a rare personal remark, updating the audience on where she and Miller stand 26 years after their divorce. 'I do have a wonderful relationship with Jonny,' she said, adding that 'he and I have sons the same age, and I'm so happy." A source told People back in 2021 that Jolie's son Knox is close pals with Miller's son Buster, whom the Melinda and Melinda star shares with his ex, Michelle Hicks.
Following her divorce from Miller, Jolie went on to marry and divorce Billy Bob Thornton and Brad Pitt. Since splitting from Pitt in 2019, Jolie has not been publicly linked to any romantic suitors. She's devoted her time to raising her children and focusing on her humanitarian work, only occasionally appearing in films such as The Eternals (2021) and Maria (2024).

Miley Cyrus and Boyfriend Maxx Morando Take Couple Coordinating to a Whole New Level with Matching Hairstyles
Miley Cyrus and boyfriend Maxx Morando went out for a glamorous date night in New York City on June 5 While the couple didn't coordinate their ensembles, they did have matching hairstyles Cyrus and Morando have been dating since 2021Miley Cyrus and her boyfriend, Maxx Morando, are hair twins. The "Flowers" singer, 32, was spotted having a fashionable night out with her musician boyfriend, 26, in New York City, on Thursday, June 5. The couple was spotted leaving the Four Seasons Hotel after Cyrus' private event, then they set off for the rest of their evening. For their date night, Cyrus wore a brown satin, fitted cone bra dress with black criss-cross lace details down the front of the dress, as well as the hips. The hem of the dress featured a long fringe that swayed as the singer walked. Morando kept his look classic for the evening, wearing an all black suit consisting of a jacket, matching shirt and black pants. For a casual touch, the musician kept a couple of buttons loose to expose a white crew neck undershirt. Though their outfits were distinct, the couple matched when it came to the way they styled their hair. Cyrus styled her brunette hair with blonde highlights in carefree curls that cascaded down her back. She also styled her now grown out baby bangs into curls that were flipped away from her face, and folded in seamlessly into the rest of her hair.

Morando, meanwhile, kept his overgrown mullet and bangs styled as he normally does — he let his natural curls pop, with a few pieces laying less than perfectly for a chic touch. Cyrus' curls paired with Morando's curls led to a matching hair moment that recalled the likes of David and Victoria Beckham's twinning hair styles in the 2000s, or Gwyneth Paltrow and Brad Pitt in the '90s.
