Angelina Jolie is back in the Hollywood spotlight, and with her return come renewed rumors about her personal life. She was alleged to be taking her on-screen romance with 'Couture' co-star Louis Garrel into a real-life relationship. However, recent reports now claim the pair are simply friends.

Sources close to Jolie have disclosed to TMZ that she is not dating Louis Garrel. The duo recently went out for dinner, but insiders emphasize it was strictly as friends. They are described as good friends with a shared social circle, and Jolie is reportedly focused on her work and her children.

This update contradicts reports from two months ago, which suggested a definite 'spark' between the two. At that time, an insider claimed Jolie was visibly excited by his attention, though others in her life expressed concern due to Garrel's 'complicated' reputation. The French actor is said to have split from his wife of ten years.

The recent TMZ report appears to put those earlier rumors to rest, at least for now. The film 'Couture' premiered at the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival and was released in French theaters on February 18, though a US release date is still pending.
