Now that Brad Pitt’s divorce from Angelina Jolie is finalized, he’s single for the first time in years and even sparking reconciliation rumors with his ex-wife, Jennifer Aniston.
Ever since his breakout role as an attractive young hitchhiker in “Thelma & Louise,” Pitt has been considered one of Hollywood’s most eligible and sought-after bachelors. As a result, there’s no shortage of women that have been romantically linked to the “Ad Astra” actor over the years.
While fans wait and wonder if anything will crystalize between him and Aniston now that he’s back on the market, it’s worth taking a look back at the many ex-girlfriends Pitt has dated over the years.

Sinitta
Pitt’s first high-profile celebrity romance was with “So Macho” singer Sinitta in 1988. At the time, he wasn’t the household name he is today. She, however, was a successful pop artist.
As the Daily Mail notes, she appeared on Alan Carr’s New Year Specstacular in 2019 where she was asked about her relationship with the actor. She joked that, since his divorce with Angelina Jolie was finalized, he had been calling her to try and rekindle things.

“He has been calling and you know what I said? ‘Brad. Move on.’”
Jill Schoelen
After some unconfirmed dalliances with co-stars, Pitt started dating his “Cutting Class” co-star and they ultimately got engaged. Three months into said engagement, she reportedly requested that he come to visit her on a movie set in Budapest. However, that’s where the actor claims things went awry.

"At this point, I had $800 to my name and I spent $600 of it getting a ticket from Los Angeles to Hungary to see her," Pitt reportedly told The Sun in 2011 (via CTV News). "I got there, went straight to the set where she was filming and that night we went out to dinner. She told me that she had fallen in love with the director of the film. I was so shocked I said, 'I'm outta here.'"

Robin Givens
The duo reportedly sparked a romance while he was an actor on Robin Givens' sitcom, “Head of the Class,” in 1989. At the time, she was locked in divorce proceedings with professional boxer, Mike Tyson. Speaking on “Conan” in 2012, Tyson explained that he went over to Givens’ place for a rendezvous one morning, despite their breakup, only to find Pitt at his estranged wife’s home. The story eventually made its way into Tyson’s one-man show. Fortunately, it doesn’t seem like he was jealous enough to show Pitt his boxing skills at the time.
Christina Applegate

This romance was particularly short-lived. Applegate brought Pitt to the 1989 MTV Movie Awards as her date. However, she previously said that she ditched him in the middle of the night for an unknown guy.
The actress appeared on “Watch What Happens Live” in 2015, where she was asked directly about the incident and confirmed that she did indeed ditch Pitt on a date, but refused to give any further details on the matter, specifically who the mystery man was.

Pitt is said to have briefly dated the acclaimed voice actress for a brief time before he started a more serious romance with another woman. Daily spoke about their past relationship in an interview with The Daily Mail in 2016 where she described him as a “laid-back” person.
“He's in a whole other realm. Brad does a lot of Hollywood stuff, but he's not a Hollywood guy. From my experience with him, he was a very down to earth man.”
Geena Davis

“I still love the woman. There’s some real genius there. I had a great time with her,” Pitt told the outlet. “Look, I don’t want to go into an explanation. She has her own views, and I respected those views. She does know people. It was one of the greatest relationships I’ve ever been in. The problem is, we grow up with this vision that love conquers all, and that’s just not so, is it?”
Gwyneth Paltrow
Pitt dated Paltrow after they met on the set of the 1995 thriller “Se7en.” In December of 1996, he popped the question and she said yes. However, before they could tie the knot, the duo called it quits in 1997.

In 2015, Paltrow, who was 22 at the time of their engagement, spoke on Howard Stern’s show where she opened up about their whirlwind romance and put most of the blame for things ending on herself.
“I think I was a kid and I wasn’t ready. He was too good for me,” she explained. “I honestly do think, I was too young and didn’t know what I was doing.”
In 2017, she was much blunter during an appearance on the "Girlboss Radio" podcast, saying: "“I f--ked that up, Brad."

Jennifer Aniston
Pitt and the “Friends” star began dating in 1998 and started dating after their managers, who were friends according to Rolling Stone, set them up on a date.
The night went well and by 1999 they were one of Hollywood’s most-sought-after A-List couples. Pitt proposed later that year. Unlike Pitt's previous engagements, this one stuck and the duo wed in 2000. Unfortunately, things wouldn’t last in what remains one of the most shocking Hollywood breakups in recent memory.
