NEW YORK  -- After several years as a couple, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are engaged.

Pitt's manager confirmed the news to The Associated Press in an email Friday.

Cynthia Pett-Dante said that there isn't a wedding date "at this time." She also said that the engagement "is a promise for the future."

Pitt and Jolie have three adopted children and three biological children.

Pett-Dante also said that "their kids are very happy."

Pitt and Jolie have been partners since they began a relationship while working on the film "Mr. & Mrs. Smith."

Jolie was briefly married to Billy Bob Thornton, but they divorced in 2003. She was also married to British actor Jonny Lee Miller before they divorced in 1999.

Pitt was previously married to Jennifer Aniston, but they divorced in 2005 after five years of marriage.

Jolie won an Oscar for her role in 1999's "Girl, Interrupted." Pitt was recently nominated for an Academy Award for his role in last year's "Moneyball."
