Angelina Jolie’s Gold Band Is A Symbol Of Their Impending Marriage’: It’s Brad’s Great-Grandmother’s Wedding Ring

She sparked rumours that she and Brad Pitt had married in secret when she was spotted wearing a gold band returning from her charity trip to Rwanda.
But after denying the reports, the meaning behind Angelina’s simple accessory has now been revealed.
According to Grazia magazine, the band was once the wedding ring of Brad’s great-grandmother, and was given to Angelina as a ‘symbol of their impending marriage’.

The Gold Band

Brad gave Angelina, 37, the ring after she decided she didn’t want to wear her $250,000 diamond engagement ring during the trip to Rwanda - where she was acting as an  UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador.
A source told Grazia: ‘Angelina said that she didn’t want to wear her engagement ring because she thought it was important not to be ostentatious with clothes and jewellery when in a poor region. ‘Brad said he completely understood why she couldn’t wear her engagement ring, but he really wanted to give Angelina something special and more understated to wear instead.
‘Angelina seemed truly touched by the special gift of his great-grandmother’s wedding ring, and it meant a lot to be able to take it on the trip with her.’
While the pair have kept quiet about their plans to wed, they recently picked up their wedding license – meaning they can marry legally within the next 90 days.

According to reports, the pair are planning to wed in Los Angeles before heading to their £35million Chateau Miraval in Brignoles, France, in May for a blessing with friends and family.

Speaking previously about his intention to wed Angelina, Brad said last November: ‘The time is nigh. It’s soon. I got a good feeling about it.

We feel so too. Good luck guys…
