Angelina Jolie, 49, is once again making headlines — this time for her rumored connection with British rapper, historian, and activist Akala. Known for her humanitarian work and acting career, Jolie reportedly shares a strong intellectual bond with the 40-year-old artist.
According to The Daily Mail, the two have spent considerable time together, drawn by shared interests in history, activism, and social issues. Sources say Jolie admires Akala’s knowledge of Black British history, particularly figures like Kelso Cochrane and Olive Morris, who fought against racial injustice.
Akala, celebrated for his educational work and advocacy, is said to have inspired Jolie’s growing interest in British history and culture. Reports suggest their conversations have sparked ideas for collaborative projects, possibly films or documentaries exploring untold historical stories.
Jolie has also expressed admiration for Akala’s sister, British rapper Ms. Dynamite, appreciating her impact on the UK music scene. Their mutual respect for culture and activism seems to have deepened Jolie and Akala’s connection.
While neither has confirmed their relationship, they’ve reportedly met discreetly at Jolie’s London base, The Corinthia Hotel. The pair was also spotted attending both the London and New York Film Festivals, sometimes joined by Jolie’s son, Pax.
Despite growing speculation, insiders claim their bond may be purely intellectual. Some reports suggest Akala remains in a relationship with his business partner, Chanelle Newman, while others hint that Jolie and Akala share a deeper emotional closeness.
Since her 2016 split from Brad Pitt, Jolie has focused on her six children, filmmaking, and humanitarian work. Akala, meanwhile, continues his efforts in education and activism.
Whether professional or personal, their partnership reflects a shared passion for knowledge and change. Fans now await to see if this connection evolves into collaboration—or something more.
