How Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt Changed Their Mind About Marriage

What a difference seven years — and six kids! -- makes!

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie finally announced their engagement on Friday -- but back in October 2006, about a year after he and Jolie went public with their romance, he told Esquire magazine that they took a hard line when it came to matrimony.
"Angie and I will consider tying the knot when everyone else in the country who wants to be married is legally able," Pitt, now 48, said in a strong statement of support for the federal legalization of same-sex marriage.

In September 2007, Pitt donated $100,000 to the campaign against Proposition 8 "because everyone has the right to live the life they so desire if it doesn't harm another and because discrimination has no place in America."

Decision 2012: Will Brad Pitt finally make an honest woman out of Angelina Jolie this year
Promoting her directorial debut In the Land of Blood and Honey in Sarajevo, Jolie, 36, dropped perhaps her biggest hint yet that she and Pitt, 48, might make their nearly seven year relationship official.
As Pitt has hinted in the past, their growing six kids have started weighing in.
“They figured out what marriage is now, they”re old enough so now they kind of like the idea of it,” said Jolie, mom to Maddox, 10, Pax, 8, Zahara, 7, Shiloh, 5, and twins Vivienne and Knox, 3. “But we”re still convinced that half of them just want to party.”
