When Brad Pitt asked the mother of his three kids if she wants to get wifed up, she cried tears of joy. Angelina Jolie “considers herself bonded to Brad for life,” but a ring does help to solidify that commitment. Brad reportedly spent a year designing the engagement ring that he would gift the mother of his three children.

A source said that Angelina “cried and smiled” when Brad proposed. Their kids have been wanting them to get hitched, so the kids were a part of the impromptu celebration.

“Everyone hugged once she put [the ring] on. She went around and showed it to each of the kids.”

The Jolie-Pitts allegedly were engaged around the Christmas holiday but didn’t come out with the news until now.
