Angelina Jolie has revealed she is dating a mystery man - and says the rumours about an affair with Brad Pitt have helped keep him a secret.

The pillow-lipped beauty, who has always denied having a romance with her 'Mr and Mrs' co-star while he was still married to Jennifer Aniston, says the media have no idea who her new lover is.

She said: "We focus on who's sleeping with who but miss who you are really with."

Last year, Angelina confessed to a string of raunchy hotel romps with a string of mystery men after remaining celibate for two years.

The stunning actress, who has a three-year-old adopted son, Maddox, said she prefers having lovers to boyfriends as it makes life simpler.

She revealed to American newspaper the New York Post at the time: "I went for two years with absolutely no man around me. Then I decided to get closer to men who were already very close friends of mine. It's a kind of adult way of having adult relationships.

"As crazy as it sounds, meeting a man in a hotel room for a few hours, and not seeing that man again for a few months, is about all I can handle."
