Angelina Jolie sparks romance rumors after she was spotted leaving a hotel in Venice with her new man. Do you recognize him… or his very famous sister?

Angelina Jolie has sparked rumors of a romance with British rapper and political activist Akala.

The duo were spotted leaving a hotel together in Venice, Italy on Wednesday during the Venice International Film Festival.

According to In Touch, 49-year-old Jolie and the 40-year-old journalist and author have been in a “casual” relationship for over a year.

The publication reports that Akala attended the Calabash Literary Festival in Jamaica in May last year along with Jolie and her daughters Zahara (19) and Shiloh (18).

An eyewitness reported at the time that Akala was “very protective of her while leading her around.”

Angelina Jolie has sparked rumors of a romance with British rapper Akala after the two were spotted together leaving a hotel in Venice.

Six months later, they enjoyed dinner together in Milan, reports In Touch.

An insider told In Touch that a major reason for Jolie's attraction to Akala is how he treats her children.

In addition to Zahara and Shiloh, Angelina and her ex-husband Brad Pitt have sons Maddox (22) and Pax (20) as well as 15-year-old twins Vivienne and Knox.

“I think a big part of why she's attracted to Akala – beyond the physical – is because she sees how he interacts with her children, because that's so important to her,” the insider said.

The source further explained that Jolie and Akala “bonded” over their shared interests – activism, travel and learning about different ways of life.

“They share an interest in activism and a shared passion for traveling and exploring other cultures. It's been a long time since she felt this kind of attraction,” they said.

Akala, 40, – born Kingslee James McLean Daley – started out as a rapper before turning to political activism, supporting former Labour MP Jeremy Corbyn in the 2017 UK general election.

His older sister is also the famous Ms. Dynamite.

Ms. Dynamite, 43 – real name Niomi Arleen McLean-Daley – had a string of hits in the early 2000s with her debut album “A Little Deeper,” which won the prestigious Mercury Music Prize.

The magazine also claimed that the Maleficent star is dating another man, Broadway composer Justin Levine. “Angelina has been dating two different men in the last year or so,” a source claimed to the magazine.

Tony Award-winning Levine was part of the Broadway production of The Outsiders, the musical produced by Jolie.

According to In Touch, he contributed to the book and music of the play. Jolie's daughter Vivienne also worked on the show as a production assistant.

“Angie adores Justin and they spend so much time together that many people think the relationship could develop into something romantic,” the source said.

An insider also told the site that the men are “completely different” but that Jolie “falls in love with both of them.”

The rumors of a new romance come five years after Pitt declared Jolie's relationship legally single.

Jolie separated from her movie star husband in 2016 after a controversial incident on an airplane.

In court documents, she said he attacked her and some of her six children and poured wine and beer on the family in a fit of rage. He has always denied being violent towards her or the family.

Akala and Justin are not the first two men Jolie has been linked to since her divorce.

A few years ago she was linked to the musician The Weekend.
