Angelina Jolie and husband Brad Pitt joined Prince William and Kate Middleton on Friday for tea.
Jealous!
According to Us Weekly, the foursome have tried to get together for months, but it seems the royals were a little busy welcoming Princess Charlotte to the world.
Finally, on Friday, Angelina Jolie, Pitt and the royal couple enjoyed a private Kensington Palace meeting, confirmed People magazine.
“The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge met with Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie Pitt at Kensington Palace on Friday afternoon,” a Kensington Palace spokesman told Us Weekly exclusively. “They discussed their shared interest in combatting the illegal wildlife trade.”

Angelina Jolie, a United Nations Special Envoy, and Brad Pitt were in London so Jolie could attend a lunch at the Foreign & Commonwealth Office on Monday “as part of her work on UK foreign policy and her ongoing campaign to end war zone sexual violence.”
According to the insider for the magazine, Middleton and Prince William were “really excited” about the afternoon tea with Brangelina. Apparently, they were so excited that they waited outside their apartment 1A home to greet Brad and Angie.
Seriously, are they allowed to do that? Protocol and all…

Brad and Angelina Jolie came bearing a gift for little Charlotte, who was born in May. Although the Pitt-Jolie children are in London with their parents, the couple left the kids behind.
“Everyone got on splendidly,” an Us Weekly source said. “Brad and Angelina spent much longer with the Duke and Duchess than planned. They ended up staying for almost a few hours.”

Sounds like a pretty good way to spend a quiet Friday afternoon while in London.
It’s very proper for the foursome to meet. After all, Queen Elizabeth II made Jolie an Honorary Dame Commander — basically the female equivalent of knighthood — at a private Buckingham Palace ceremony in October 2014, for her humanitarian work.
Does that mean the royal couple addressed her as Lady Angelina Jolie?
