If Brad & Angelina’s Exes Came To Their Wedding...
Who would be on that (very) hypothetical guest list?
PA PhotosAfter we’d stopped getting excited about Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s engagement, we started thinking what if everyone they had ever dated came to their wedding? Here’s who would be on that (very) hypothetical guest list.
Rex FeaturesJennifer Aniston
Brad met his most infamous ex, Jennifer Aniston, when their agents set them up on a blind date - and they quickly became Hollywood’s golden couple. Their wedding, in 2000, included a gospel choir, 50,000 flowers, lobster, four bands and fireworks. Somehow we can’t see Angelina going for something similar.
Rex FeaturesClaire Forlani
Eyebrows rose when Brad was seen holding hands at a premiere with his Meet Joe Black co-star Claire Forlani. Nothing came of it so, if we were her, we wouldn’t hold our breath for a Save The Date.
Rex FeaturesGwyneth Paltrow
Brad Pitt is known for dating women as equally as beautiful as he is – and Gwyneth Paltrow was no exception. The pair hooked up in 1994, when Gwyn was just starting out on her career. Talking about their romance in hindsight, the actress said: "I said things about being in a relationship [with Brad Pitt] that felt wrong to me even as I was saying them." The pair didn’t end on bad terms however, so perhaps Gwyneth will be among those throwing confetti?
Pat Lyttle/FamousThandie Newton
Of all the people Brad Pitt’s dated, our money’s on Thandie Newton to get a wedding invitation. The pair hooked up on the set of Interview With A Vampire and were together for a year, before breaking things off amicably and reportedly staying friends.
Rex FeaturesGeena Davis
Brad’s former flame, Geena Davis, can take some of the credit for making the-then-little-known actor into a sex symbol. It was their love scene in Thelma & Louise that made women around the world sit up and pay attention. He owes her wedding invite for that, at least!
Rex FeaturesJuliette Lewis
Brad Pitt dated Juliette Lewis when she was 16 and he was 26. They met on the set of Kalifornia and the actress says that she can’t believe how much interest their relationship still generates. “It amazes me that people are still fascinated that we went out for four years. I was a teenager at the time. It's a lifetime away. I was in my high-school years and it was a wonderful, loving relationship with a fun, smart guy. Then it was over and he went on to become incredibly famous.”

Also in Brad Pitt’s Little Black Book is Christina Applegate, who briefly got together with the actor in 1989. We don’t think she’ll be on the wedding guestlist though – their relationship was short and sweet and they’ve not been spotted together since.
Rex FeaturesSinitta
Sinitta hasn’t just dated Simon Cowell, you know! The singer romanced Brad Pitt for a whooping two years back in the late 1980s. In the end the couple broke up because maintaining a long-distance relationship proved too difficult. “I’d go over quite a lot but, at the end of the day, you want someone you can hang out with, not someone you’re always waiting for,” she said.
Getty ImagesRobin Givens
Actress Robin Givens had a fling with the actor in 1986. Talking about the experience, she said: "I don't know if I find him to be so fascinating, to be perfectly honest... Whenever I see him in the magazines with Angelina Jolie I just crack up."
Rex FeaturesColin Farrell
And now for Angelina Jolie’s exes. The actress and Colin Farrell met on the set of Alexander but, though they both denied anything romantic happened between them, we reckon there was plenty of chemistry going on behind the scenes.
Rex FeaturesNicolas Cage
Angelina sent the rumour mill into overdrive when she was snapped kissing Nicolas Cage at a black-tie event in 2003 but we don’t think that’s enough to get an invite to the biggest wedding of the decade.
Rex FeaturesVal Kilmer
Imagine Batman and Lara Croft together? Well, that’s exactly what’s reported to have happened in 2003 when Angelina hooked up with Val Kilmer.
Rex FeaturesBilly Bob Thornton
In 2000, the actress married Billy Bob Thornton after a two-month courtship. The pair attracted attention due to their bizarre gestures of love, which included wearing vials of each other’s blood and snogging on the red carpet. Angie said they split in 2003 because they “had nothing in common” so we don’t think they’ll be any wedding cake saved for the actor.
Rex FeaturesOliver Stone
Angelina’s not just been linked to actors either. She was rumoured to be romancing Hollywood director Oliver Stone.
Rex FeaturesJonny Lee Miller
Angelina Jolie was deep in her goth phase in 1996 when she married British actor Jonny Lee Miller (apparently she wrote the groom’s name on a T-shirt in her own blood). The pair had starred in Hackers and, even though they divorced after 18 months, have remained close friends, working together on the Peace One Day initiative in 2005. Hence, we won’t be surprised if Jonny turns up in the wedding photos.
Samuel Goldwyn/RetnaJenny Shimizu
Angelina dated Jenny Shimizu on and off in the mid 1990s. The actress, who has stated that she is bisexual, revealed: "I would probably have married Jenny if I hadn't married my husband [Jonny Lee Miller]. I fell in love with her the first second I saw her."
