James Haven, the brother of Angelina Jolie, quietly married Romi Imbelli, star of The Real L Word, in a private ceremony in Laguna Beach, California, in August 2024. The intimate wedding included close family members, such as Haven’s father, Jon Voight. However, Angelina Jolie was noticeably absent, following her prolonged divorce from Brad Pitt.
Romi confirmed their union on Instagram, sharing a black-and-white photo from their wedding day with the caption: “In 2024, I married my best friend of 23 years. The details of our story are too personal and complicated to share now, but I am writing it all in my book.” She added that a larger celebration is planned for the future.
Despite the heartfelt announcement, the couple faced immediate challenges. Romi revealed on Instagram: “Unfortunately, we had a big fight the next day.” She explained that they spent the next five months reflecting and working on their relationship before reuniting. “I feel liberated and ready to return to my husband and our home in LA,” she said, expressing faith in their journey.
Haven, 51, has largely stayed out of the limelight despite acting credits in films like Monster’s Ball and Gia. However, his connection to Angelina Jolie keeps him in public focus. In January 2024, he appeared on a podcast, discussing his bond with Jolie and her children: “It started with the protection of her and then of her children, my nieces and nephews.”
