Angelina Jolie and British rapper Akala made headlines as they stepped out together on the red carpet, both wearing coordinated black outfits, fueling further rumors about their relationship. The two appeared in sync, opting for sleek and stylish black attire, showcasing their chemistry and complementing each other’s looks.
This appearance follows ongoing speculation about their romantic involvement, though neither has publicly confirmed their relationship. Jolie, known for her iconic red carpet fashion, continues to draw attention not just for her work but also for her personal life and public appearances. Akala, a celebrated figure in the UK music and activist scenes, added a touch of his signature style to the event.
Angelina Jolie and Akala made a striking appearance at the 68th BFI London Film Festival, twinning in chic black outfits. Jolie, 49, wore a sharp three-piece pantsuit featuring a button-up vest, perfectly complemented by square-toe leather boots, showcasing her effortlessly stylish red carpet presence. The Hollywood star, whose ex-husband Brad Pitt is now dating Ines de Ramon, looked relaxed as she posed with her hands in her pockets.
Akala, 40, matched Jolie’s elegant look with his own refined style, sporting black pants, a blazer, and a turtleneck. He completed his ensemble with a navy blue and gray scarf, adding a subtle touch of color to his outfit. Their coordinated looks further fueled rumors of a romantic relationship, although neither has confirmed the nature of their connection.
Angelina Jolie and Akala have fueled ongoing romance rumors after being spotted together multiple times, including their appearance at the Venice International Film Festival in August, where they were seen leaving Jolie’s hotel. Despite these sightings, sources have told People magazine that the two are just friends.
The dating speculation began earlier in May 2023 when Akala joined Jolie and her daughters Zahara and Shiloh at the Calabash Literary Festival in Jamaica. According to an eyewitness, Akala, born Kingslee James McLean Daley, appeared “very protective” as he accompanied the family.
Their close connection continued to draw attention when they had dinner in Milan six months later, as reported by In Touch. While rumors swirl, Jolie’s ongoing contentious legal battle with her ex-husband Brad Pitt, particularly over their former shared winery, remains in the spotlight.
Jolie and Pitt share six children: Maddox, 22, Pax, 20, Zahara, 19, Shiloh, 18, and 15-year-old twins Vivienne and Knox.
