Angelina Jolie resumes dating amid Brad Pitt legal battle

Angelina Jolie is making an extra effort to keep her dating life under wraps.

According to sources, Angelina is putting herself out there after turning 50 on June 4.

The Tomb Raider actress gushed about turning 50, saying, "I feel that I’m gonna hit my stride in my 50s. I like being older, I feel much more comfortable… maybe because my mom didn’t live very long, so there's something about age that feels like a victory instead of a sadness for me."

Jolie celebrated her big day in a small gathering at her Los Angeles home. Now that her kids are grown enough, one of her birthday wishes is to restart her romantic life.

One of the Oscar winner’s friends told Radar Online. "With the kids now older and focused on their own lives, she finally has space to focus on her love life.”

"Angelina knows that anyone she dates will be heavily scrutinized, so she’s been extremely careful to keep things under wraps,” they noted.

Another source noted that the Maria actress is exhausted from the long-drawn legal battle with her ex, Brad Pitt.

A source close to Jolie said: "Angelina is exhausted by all her family drama, but is finally tentatively putting herself back out on the dating scene and trying a few dates.”

"She wants calm and peace in all aspects of her life, so won't be rushing into anything, but she is definitely looking for a new love," explained the tipster.

Angelina Jolie shares six kids, Maddox, Zahara, Shiloh, Pax, Knox, and Viviene with her ex Brad Pitt.
