The 20-year-old daughter of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, Zahara Jolie-Pitt was seen strolling through Disneyland over the weekend with boyfriend Elijah Cooper, and the cozy couple vibes have sent the engagement rumor mill spinning. Matching white tees, jeans, and coordinating Mickey and Minnie Mouse ears gave the outing a couples-retreat aesthetic but it was the absence of a previously spotted diamond ring that had fans doing a double take.
Zahara Jolie-Pitt had first triggered engagement rumors earlier this month after she was photographed leaving Craig’s in West Hollywood wearing a stunning diamond on her left ring finger. The June 10 photos quickly went viral, sparking speculation that the couple had taken the next step. But during this Disneyland date, the ring was notably gone.
That hasn’t stopped fans from wondering if Zahara and Elijah are keeping things intentionally low-key. The couple looked affectionate and relaxed, pausing for photos in front of Tiana’s Bayou Adventure and reportedly sharing a few quiet moments in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge. Eyewitnesses say the two were “inseparable” throughout the evening, chatting and laughing easily, with Elijah often keeping a protective arm around her.
Despite the mounting curiosity, neither Zahara nor her famous parents have commented on the rumors. Angelina Jolie has long prioritized her children’s privacy, especially when it comes to their dating lives. And Brad Pitt, who’s kept a relatively low profile amid his own tabloid headlines, hasn’t weighed in either.
What we do know: Elijah Cooper has been a consistent presence in Zahara’s life for over a year. The couple reportedly met through mutual friends at Spelman College, where Zahara began studying in 2022. Friends describe them as “quietly serious,” adding that they’ve been spotted at several events together, including charity galas and private family gatherings.
But the engagement question remains unanswered. Was the ring a fashion accessory, a promise ring, or the real deal? The fact that Zahara chose not to wear it on their very next public outing has only deepened the mystery. Some fans speculate it could have been a test run to gauge reaction, while others believe they may be planning an official announcement once the time feels right.
Adding to the intrigue, this isn’t the first time a Jolie-Pitt child has drawn media interest for their relationships. Shiloh Jolie-Pitt has been linked to a few young Hollywood names, though nothing has been confirmed, and Maddox continues to keep his personal life entirely private.
As of now, Zahara is letting her actions and fashion choices do the talking. Whether or not she’s engaged, her public display of affection with Elijah shows she’s happy, grounded, and very much in love.
