Reality Behind Rumor Brad Pitt, Alia Shawkat’s Relationship Getting Serious Following Low-Key Dates

Brad Pitt and Alia Shawkat’s relationship is rumored to be getting serious after a series of low-key dates.

According to Star, Pitt and Shawkat’s romance started last summer but they tried their best to stay out of the limelight back then. It was only recently that the rumored couple was photographed hanging out with their common friends.

“They’ve bonded over a love everything from arts and culture to philosophy and cooking. Brad and Alia enjoyed a lot of low-key dates, but now they’re starting to come out of their shell. Everyone’s happy for them. It’s looking like there’s real potential here, for sure,” an unnamed source told the publication.

But despite the tabloid’s incessant claims that Pitt and Shawkat are a couple and that their relationship has gotten serious, more reputable sources have clarified that this isn’t the case. Pitt and Shawkat are not dating.

A source told Entertainment Tonight last month that Pitt and Shawkat are nothing more than friends. The two have been friends for months, but Angelina Jolie’s ex-husband is still single at the moment.

Three months ago, ET also denied the allegations that Pitt is dating holistic healer Sat Hari Khalsa. The source told the publication that the dad of six is enjoying his “me time” after several months of promoting his back to back films “Ad Astra” and “Once Upon A Time In Hollywood.”

Meanwhile, there are rumors suggesting that it is Pitt’s ex-wife who is currently dating. A source told US Weekly last month that the “Maleficent: Mistress of Evil” star is back on the dating scene.

Even though her divorce from Pitt has not yet been finalized, the actress has already gone on a few dates. But at the end of the day, Jolie’s main priority still remains to be her six children and her career.

“She isn’t closed to the idea of meeting someone new, but it’s not her main priority,” the source said.
