Angelina Jolie went on a three-hour lunch date with David Mayer de Rothschild

Ultimately, my dream is for Jonny Lee Miller and Angelina Jolie to get back together. For a second in 2021, it looked like my dream would come true – Angelina was seen visiting JLM’s apartment in New York a few times, and they also went to dinner in Beverly Hills. Jonny and Angelina always stayed on good terms after their divorce, and Jonny has never said a word against her. I actually think Jonny became something like one of her closest friends. But… we haven’t heard anything about them in a while, and if a tall, handsome, rich, British adventurer comes calling, why not? So it was a few days ago, when Angelina was seen having a three-hour lunch in Malibu with David Mayer de Rothschild. Yes, that kind of Rothschild.

Angeline Jolie spent three whole hours chatting away with hunky billionaire heir David Mayer de Rothschild while on a lunch date in Malibu, Calif., on Thursday. In photos obtained by Page Six, the “Maleficent” star, 47, was seen smiling as she exited celebrity hotspot Nobu with the British environmentalist, 44, by her side.

For the outing, Jolie wore a chic black dress with cutouts that showed off her midsection.She also paired the look with matching black heels and sunglasses. Paparazzi snapped the “Girl, Interrupted” star as she walked to her car and pushed back her hair.

Mayer de Rothschild, who is part of the richest family in the world, appeared in good spirits as well, as he flashed a smirk and laughed along with Jolie.

Reps for Jolie did not immediately return Page Six’s request for comment on whether the pair were out to discuss business or pleasure. The meetup could have been work-related as both have interests in activism.

I wish we had the photos but they’re super-exclusive, so I’m adding some tweets below. He’s definitely hunky and tall. If you ask me, the body language from him seems “smitten, interested.” Angelina looks fresh and pretty, and her body language says “this was a date and it went well.” I’m so glad that her daughters (??) convinced her to wear a pretty dress for her date too – y’all know how much Angelina loves a billowy sack dress. Reportedly, Angelina’s new BFF Salma Hayek is tight with David Mayer de Rothschild, so now I wonder if Salma set them up.

    But why did she have to ombre her hair?!!?

    • Sierra says:

      She has 3 acting roles coming up so could be for one of those.

    • North of Boston says:

      But why does the first comment on a post about a woman have to be about her appearance? And how it doesn’t suit someone else’s personal tastes?

      • Andrea says:

        Meanwhile back at the ranch…

      • Kyle says:

        It’s about HAIR. C’mon now. Wow. I’m “North of Boston” as well-please don’t let me forget to give you crackers with your soup.

      • Aud says:

        The entire post is about a woman going on a date, really don’t think discussing her hair is that out of place lol

  2. Naomi says:

    I hope he’s a nice guy and he treats well and it all works out for her! Bonus points bc he is younger, taller, and richer than Brad.

    I know we’re not supposed to talk bodies, but is it me or do her arms look scary thin? I hope she is eating okay! Stress can do a number on you.

    • crogirl says:

      “I know we’re not supposed to talk bodies”

      So don’t. Do you also comment about women you consider overweight?

      Her arms have always been thin

    • MissMarirose says:

      It’s not just you. She looks entirely too thin. But I’m hoping the fact that her hair looks healthy means she’s not sick.

  3. fabulous says:

    I love her but I do worry. She is so thin. Too thin.

    • 90s says:

      Look at some pictures of her in the 90s. She’s always been this skinny. It’s been this way for nearly 30 years and she’s still alive and well. She’s fine.

      • Fabiola says:

        She was not this skinny in the 90s. She was always thin but not this skinny. That’s why she wears all those sack dresses now to try to hide how skinny she has gotten these last 10 years.

  4. Zen says:

    Is it a date or are they working together? He is involved in a lot of causes as is she.

    • Kebbie says:

      They were photographed at Nobu, which is very much a choice, so I’m guessing it’s not a date. I don’t think she would introduce a boyfriend with a pap walk at a celebrity hotspot.

      I would love it for her though, a hot billionaire. Brad would look even more pathetic by comparison.

      • Fabiola says:

        I don’t think think it’s a romantic date cuz they would have chosen somewhere private not a pap spot. It must be a project they are working on.

    • Ravensdaughter says:

      I hope they’re working on causes. She is great at fund raising.

      I don’t see Angelina with an aristocrat (well, not technically, but…) billionaire. With all the poverty she’s seen, how could she?

      And yes, she is thin. I don’t think it’s an eating disorder per se; she just is so busy she doesn’t take care of herself.

    • KLO says:

      It is probably just work. From what I gather, David has a long time live in girlfriend or wife (an ukrainian actress).

  5. Sierra says:

    I could hear Brad and his minions scream and cry over the weekend 😂

    Angie landed a similarly aged, tall, handsome, well educated British billionaire who also is an award winning environmentalist.

    Brad on the other hand is dating c listers who are 3 decades younger than him.

    Plus this man is a Rothschild, world’s richest and most powerful family, and Brad won’t be able to use his media connections to smear this man.

    Well done Angie and keep being your happy wonderful self.

  6. dlc says:

    did anyone else think the long black dress with black heels was an odd choice for lunch?

    • Mei says:

      I would if it was anyone else except AJ lmao, maybe she’ll go lighter/more colourful if there is a second date!

    • Jan says:

      LOL, it’s Angie your are lucky she was not in a sack dress and wedge shoes.
      I think even Angie’s kids give up on her dressing style, like most children a happy parent is more important.

    • Coco says:

      How are cut outs on the side of a long dress an odd choice for a lunch?

    • solidgold says:

      I would be shocked if she wore color!

  7. Justpassingby says:

    Physically, he’s a bit of a mix between Jared Leto (the very intense blue eyes), David Guetta and Armie Hammer…

  8. girl_ninja says:

    If it was a date then good on her. She should be spending time with a man who is kind and treat her with respect…and who is sexy and handsome.

  9. wordnerd says:

    I could roll around in that smile he’s giving her when they say goodbye. It’s such a newly smitten, totally crushing, I think you’re cute and I’m to smile my whole drive home kind of look. Ahhh, new love.

  10. Joan Callamezzo says:

    I am here for this. Please keep us updated on whatever this is between them. The Oscar winning actress who has done more humanitarian work than small nations, this badass, self made multimillionairess who is dedicated to her child army, just show me pics of her piloting a plane to take him out for a date. Does he ride motorcycles too? She’s so cool I love this for her. Brad who?

  11. Alycea says:

    lol he would referred to as a “British adventurer” That sounds right up her alley. I am guessing this is the start of their roll out if they’re dating. I know there was chatter to see if he was still he was married a few years ago, but her/her sources not clarifying to People as they have done in past says a lot. Good for her!

    • AC says:

      @Alycea, just her type! I am here for it! She deserves some happiness after all of that happened from 2016 to now. Now? He’s still suing her.

  12. MaryContrary says:

    This isn’t exactly someplace you go for an under the radar lunch-so interesting optics.

    • Alycea says:

      That’s why i was getting roll-out vibes lol. I remember photos of her looking more dressed up then usual a few months ago at a vegan(?) I wonder if it’s been going on for awhile

      • Kebbie says:

        I think if it were a pap walk rollout we’d have gotten follow-up quotes about how they’re “getting to know each other” or “have been dating for awhile” or something like that.

        Photographed at Nobu of all places and then silence makes me think it’s not romantic. Like being photographed with The Weeknd at Giorgio Baldi.

      • AC says:

        Also, when she was in NY with Zahara, they showed a picture of her going to dinner alone (the night of the Golden Kiss up Awards). Maybe then, also.

      • sara says:

        she was obviously hooking up with the weeknd. i cant believe people are still denying that. they did no business together and he didnt need her help to donate to the UN. Angelina doesnt do the sources thing but she does deny romance rumors through People. When she was seen at jonnys house her source told People that their sons were friends and there at the dinner to shut down the romantic rumors.

      • Alycea says:

        @SARA

        I think she was hooking up with the weekend as well. They went out to dinner together those two times and were seen at a couple of concerts together.

        I remember when she also shut down rumors that was dating a real estate agent. I feel like she would have clarified it was just business.

      • Ivy says:

        @ALYCEA

        Her sources actually said the dinners with the weekend was business too lol. I think thats her go to responde to get people off their back.

  13. TheOriginalMia says:

    She looks happy. Content. Good for her. He is a tall glass of water. I like the height difference.

  14. Alycea says:

    Forgot to mention that wave and smile was sweet! I got same the feel from his body language

  15. Lotte says:

    Isn’t he married with young kids to Karina Deyko, I think she goes by Kaykees? They had a house spread in a magazine a couple years ago?

    • K8erade says:

      It seems they separated/divorced (?) since then. It’s all quiet and hush hush.

    • Elizabeth Kerri Mahon says:

      I had no idea that he was married until you mentioned it. She’s also an actress. I wonder if this was an actual date or AJ and David de Rothschild are working on a project together.

    • Ivy says:

      I think they just have one child. People were trying to find if they were still together but they haven’t spoken about each other in any of their talks/interviews in a few years. Time will tell.

    • Vi says:

      They might have been on a stable relationship, but it doesn’t seem like they were/are officially married. There’s the Rothschild family tree in this site run by the Rothschilds (https://www.rothschildarchive.org/genealogy/) and David’s partner isn’t listed, unlike his siblings’.

  16. molly says:

    I believe he is married to Karina Deyko

  17. Yonati says:

    @Kyle, what are you talking about? Why post and run?

    • Kyle says:

      Haha, not “running.” So much is probably conspiracy theory garbage, but I do feel confident in their corruption. There’s a lot out there on the web obviously.

    • Kebbie says:

      I think they’ve been a main target of antisemitic conspiracy theorists, so God only knows what this person is implying.

    • Yonati says:

      Yes sounds like another Medieval anti-Semitic trope.

  18. PrincessOfWaffles says:

    This is a date. they might have some projects to work on together which would be great, but I feel they’re definitely an interest: angelina doesnt do cut out dresses. This is special. I like them together, GO ANGIE

  19. Normades says:

    He’s giving me flubby professor of literature vibes but I bet he cleans up real nice.

  20. ExtremelyBeautifulDiego says:

    Woah he’s incredibly hot and sexy, they’d make an amazingly hot couple. 🥵
    So shipping them

  21. Michelle says:

    Go Angie Go! I would love for her to be in a relationship with someone more powerful than BP. We can only imagine the HELL she’s been through and I’m here for her happiness.

  22. Sunset says:

    Well this is interesting! Arminka and Angelina’s chef follow him too. Romantical or not it seems like this will be a great partnership. Though I have a feeling this was a date and not the first one. Just the first one they’re allowing the public to see based on their venue choice

  23. Yes says:

    HAWWWWWTTTTTT!!!! Love the professor of literature vibes (haha, @Normades), and love that Angelina’s hair is looking sunny. It’s all giving fresh, sexy, unbothered vibes.

  24. Mauven says:

    He has a better vibe than most billionaires. And she is transitioning from official United Nations work to more private avenues for change…. so with his good vibe, maybe he’s out there trying to put his money in good places… they decide they’re going to meet over lunch and talk about some ideas and what this means is someone inside sold them out. I do think a three hour lunch is a very good indicator that they probably will be together if they are not yet.

  25. Coco says:

    Whether this “date” was romantic or not Pitt was somewhere throwing a tantrum this weekend hopefully no children or women were around.

    The last time there was media speculation about whether or not she may be dating, Pitt’s PR team ran to the media to almost shame her. With stories like Pitt is thinking about the kids and is not focusing on dating. Yes because how dare a woman after 4 years and getting out of abusive relationships and still being financially, abused even think about getting back out there.

    I expect a story from Pitt’s PR team in 3 2 1 .

  26. Thea says:

    If he is a decent guy who will respect and love her, I hope they are an item. Angelina deserves all the happiness in the world after what she went through with that abusive a**hole ex-husband and her tireless devotion to important causes. I love that Salma Hayek is her new BFF. Angelina could use more allies and friends like that in her life, especially ones who will not be easily threatened by Brad Pitt and all his connections.

  27. kel says:

    I really want this to be true. They look so good together, so beautiful.

  28. Michael says:

    She has had dinner and lunch dates with a few famous men over the years. Until she classifies it as a romance I will assume it is business and charity related.

  29. ProssaO says:

    So happy for her. She deserves all the happiness in the world

  30. Freya says:

    The world will be a better place when people stop caring about what other people look like. Angelina IS OK. Not everyone who is skinny is thin because they are sick and not everyone who is fat is fat because they are sick. Every body is one way, whether by choice or not. It’s so offensive and disrespectful to go around talking about someone’s body, especially judging a woman’s body. Remember that in the last few years of marriage she was definitely struggling with depression and then had to worry about 6 kids, before she could think about herself. In the end, everyone was well, safe and healthy away from all of Pitt’s abuse.

    • Yes says:

      Yes, @Freya. The policing of other women’s bodies is really harmful, not only to the women whose bodies are a target, but to every woman who is forced to marinate in a culture of women’s bodies always being the subject of scrutiny and judgment. I read Celebitchy because “escapism can be smart,” and there is nothing smart about perpetuating abuse.

    • Green Desert says:

      Yep yep yep. I think not commenting on looks or bodies in the way we have in the past is so important, and that includes not commenting on people’s bodies if they gain weight or lose weight. And in this instance, Angelina looks the same as she ALWAYS has. Whether it’s genetics or a choice on her part it doesn’t matter. It’s not something for people who don’t know her to be “concerned” about. It was the same with the Mindy Kaling posts recently – why do people care so much? Like you said @Freya, not every thin person (or person who has lost weight) is unhealthy, and not every fat person (or person who has gained weight) is unhealthy.

      This is an elder Millennial and older problem (and I’m an Xennial) – people smarter than me are starting to talk about this more. People roughly my age and older are obsessed with looks and bodies in a way that younger generations are not (I know no generation is a monolith so no one needs to give their anecdotal examples, I’m talking about in general). We have to actively work against this obsession.

  31. EllenOlenska says:

    My first thought was one heck of a product placement for YSL with her bag…photos guaranteed to circulate…

  32. AC says:

    We have the same exact thinking 😊. I also always thought she was better off with Jonny Lee Miller. I think when they got married they were just too young back then. It was just the wrong time, maybe have been different if they met later on in life .

  33. Lady Luna says:

    Yassss! Good for her!

  34. Hanna says:

    This is how the paps shots. Imagine the paps going crazy. Was she also sourrounded by paps outside Geurline Paris

  35. Hanna says:

    Imagine she bring him to the oscar wow

  36. Happy says:

    Never thought BP was all that; however, he’s done some very good films. This guy looks hotter purely from physical appearances (don’t know anything about him). Good for her.
