Angelina Jolie, 36, and Brad Pitt, 48, a Hollywood megastar couple since 2005, are engaged, Pitt's representative said Friday.
"Yes, it's confirmed. It is a promise for the future, and their kids
are very happy. There's no date set at this time. Brad designed the
ring," the representative, Lindsay Kurtz, told CNN.
The longtime couple had been insisting that they wouldn't marry unless the nation's laws allowed all couples to marry.
Asked about this position after the engagement announcement, Pitt's representative didn't have an immediate comment.
Jewelry designer Robert Procop of Beverly Hills, California, designed
the diamond engagement ring after a yearlong collaboration with Pitt,
his representative said.
Pitt "wanted every aspect of it to be perfect, so Robert was able to
locate a diamond of the finest quality and cut it to an exact custom
size and shape to suite Angelina's hand," the representative said.
"Brad was always heavily involved, overseeing every aspect of the
creative design evolution. The side diamonds are specially cut to
encircle her finger.
"The couple has six children, including three biological children
together. Pitt adopted two of Jolie's children whom she had earlier
adopted from Cambodia and Ethiopia, and they together adopted a boy from
Vietnam. Their biological children include twins.
Jolie, the daughter of actor Jon Voight and actress Marcheline
Bertrand, won an Oscar for her role as a mental patient in the 1999 film
"Girl, Interrupted."
Pitt, who grew up in Springfield, Missouri, was nominated for an Oscar
and won a Golden Globe for his role in the 1995 science fiction film
"Twelve Monkeys."
Jolie was previously married to actor Jonny Lee Miller and actor Billy Bob Thornton.
