Although the actress now feels settled, she had some wild times back in the nineties. And the one that stands out the most among the plethora of personalities that she has dated, is the relationship with her ex-girlfriend Jenny Shimizu. It was love at first sight for Jolie after she met Shimizu for their film Foxfire and after that the two were inseparable.
Although it has not ever been confirmed exactly when the two love birds split up, their ever-growing love for each other never stopped. Thus, in a 2005 interview, the star’s former girlfriend confirmed she knew back then that her relationship with Bard Pitt won’t last.

Even though the media deemed Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt as the ‘it’ couple of the era, Jolie’s former girlfriend had an intuition that their relationship wouldn’t last forever. According to the actress and Calvin Klien girl, Jenny Shimizu, the Eternals actress loves women way too much, and lacked the domestic qualities Pitt always hoped his wife would encompass. Newsoftheworld quoted the former girlfriend in a 2005 article saying,
“Angelina is an unbelievable lesbian lover. She loves women too much. It’s like a drug and she was hooked. I was her first, and although she’s having a baby with Brad, I doubt I’ll be the last.”
Thus, although the model sang praises of her former lover, she also hinted at how the seemingly model relationship was flaunty in its own way. She then further added,
“Angelina loves danger and dabbling in the dark side. That’s where she gets her kicks—not playing happy families with one man. More to the point, I know how much she loves women.”
Therefore concluded by stating the inevitable which did turn out to be true. As the two did call it quits in 2019 after being married for some time.
