In 2016, Angelina Jolie removed her six children from the private plane when they landed in LA, and she never looked back. She did ask Brad Pitt if she could move her things and the children’s things out of his Los Feliz home, and he reportedly refused. Soon after filing for divorce, Angelina bought a two-acre estate in LA, also in the Los Feliz area. She settled there and worked on healing her family. It was also said that she needed to stay in LA from a legal perspective while the divorce was on-going and there were child-custody issues still being worked out. In the past few years, though, Angelina has been restless. She’s spent more time in New York, where she produced a Tony Award-winning musical. She seems to want to travel more, especially now that her two youngest, Vivienne and Knox, just turned 17 years old and will probably be graduating from high school in the next year. So… is it surprising that she’s looking to sell her LA home?
This Hollywood home could be ready for its latest close-up! Angelina Jolie is prepping to sell the estate of famed filmmaker Cecil B. DeMille, which she snapped up for $24.5 million in 2017, sources tell Page Six.
Sitting on 2-plus acres in the Los Angeles neighborhood of Los Feliz, the house — where “The Ten Commandments” director lived for roughly 40 years, until his 1959 death — was built in 1913 and has six bedrooms and 10 bathrooms across more than 11,000 square feet of interior space. The estate also has four fireplaces, a vast wine cellar, a tea house, views of the Griffith Observatory, formal gardens and a pool with cascading fountains on either side.
Jolie reportedly spent the pandemic isolating there with her kids, and also housed friends there who were displaced by the area wildfires earlier this year.
She told British Vogue in 2021 of the location, “I wanted it to be close to their dad, who is only five minutes away.” She was referring, of course, to ex-husband Brad Pitt.
Reportedly, Brad has been based outside of LA for the past two years, although there’s different gossip about that too. He bought a place in Carmel, and I don’t think he’s spent a ton of time in LA in recent years. So much for “fighting for his kids,” huh? Anyway, I think Angelina probably will sell her LA home, but probably not before Vivi and Knox turn 18, right? Or does it not even matter legally at this point? And hey, maybe the twins want to move to New York too.
Incidentally, Brad Pitt’s mom Jane Pitt passed away last week. You-know-who’s crisis management team rushed to criticize Angelina for “keeping the kids away from their grandmother.” But there was a lot of reporting and gossip that Angelina stayed in touch with Brad’s parents and encouraged the kids to see them.
