Brangelina will tie the knot soon
It’s official now. Hollywood couple Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are engaged. An exact date for the couple’s nuptials has yet to be announced.
Cynthia Pett-Dante, Brad Pitt’s manager, told the Hollywood Reporter that the engagement is a confirmed fact. “Yes, and it’s a promise for the future ; their kids are very happy.” Pett-Dante also informed that Pitt has been instrumental in designing the engagement ring.
The engagement ring was crafted by Beverly Hills jeweler Robert Procop.
“Brad had a specific vision for this ring, which he realized over a yearlong collaboration. He wanted every aspect of it to be perfect, so I was able to locate a diamond of the finest quality and cut it to an exact custom size and shape to suite Angelina’s hand. Brad was always heavily involved, overseeing every aspect of the creative design evolution. The side diamonds are specially cut to encircle her finger and each diamond is of the highest gem quality,” Mr Procop told the Hollywood Reporter.
