Angelina Jolie’s New Close Male Friend Introduces Her To His Family
Hollywood actress Angelina Jolie has kept the internet buzzing over rumors of a newfound love. While speculations haven’t been confirmed, sources informed the Daily Mail that British rapper and journalist Akala introduced her to his family and friends.
The pair reportedly met at a charity event and have known each other for years. Insiders revealed that Akala and Jolie have found common ground in their love for history, particularly Britain’s colonial heritage and the nation’s famous Black figures.
They reportedly ” see each other and hang out regularly.” Jolie is believed to be looking for new material for films and has been looking to Akala for inspiration.
Sources told the Daily Mail, “He introduced her to the Kelso Cochrane story. She is a keen historian so there have been a lot of conversations about Olive Morris and Kelso.”
Meanwhile, a different insider said that the two haven’t been romantically involved since Akala has been dating his business partner Chanelle Newman.
However, there have been accounts that the two spent a few nights at The Corinthia, a hotel in London, last week.
According to an informant of The Sun, “Angelina and Akala have been secretly spending nights together at her London hotel The Corinthia. Angelina arrived at the hotel via the loading bay at around 8 pm on Wednesday before being joined by Akala at around 10 pm.”
“The pair spent Wednesday and Thursday night together inside the hotel and did not leave,” the source added.

Akala hails from Kentish Town, London. He was born Kingslee James McLean Daley and is 40 years old, nine years younger than Jolie. His mother is Scottish and his father is Jamaican. Akala’s mother taught him about Black history and radical Black thought leaders.
He won the Best Hip Hop Act Award in 2006 and has been listed as one of the 100 most influential Black British people in the UK. Aside from being a rapper and journalist, he is also an author, activist, and poet.
Dating Since 2023?
Rumors that Jolie and Akala were dating began in May 2023. At the time, Akala allegedly met up with Jolie and her daughters at Jamaica’s Calabash Literary Festival.
While neither Angelina Jolie nor Akala has publicly confirmed their relationship, the intrigue surrounding their close bond continues to captivate fans and media alike. Whether this connection is purely intellectual or hints at something deeper, only time will tell.
