They have always said that they'll get married when gay marriage becomes legal in all states.
But Brad Pitt has made a dramatic U-turn, revealing he'd like to wed the mother of his six children, Angelina Jolie.
In an interview with the Hollywood Reporter, the Oscar-nominated actor gushed over his partner of seven years.

Giving the first indication that a wedding to the beautiful actress might come sooner rather than later.
He said their six children were one of the significant factors behind his change of heart.
Brad said: 'We’d actually like to, and it seems to mean more and more to our kids.
'It means so much to my kids, and they ask a lot. And it means something to me, too, to make that kind of commitment.'
But he didn't go as far as saying he had asked Angelina to marry him, adding: 'I'm not going to go any further.'

However, despite his U-turn, he reiterated his support for gay marriage.
'But to be in love with someone and be raising a family with someone and want to make that commitment and not be able to is ludicrous, just ludicrous.'
On the Ellen DeGeneres show in September, Brad told the host: 'I've said that we would not be getting married until everyone in this county has the right to get married.
'We live in this great country that is about freedom. It is defined by our freedom and equality and yet we allow this discrimination to go on everyday and that's not what we're about. That's not what makes us great. Until that is reversed. I just don't get it.'
They started dating after starring in the 2004 film, Mr. & Mrs. Smith, while Brad was still married to Friends star Jennifer Aniston.
In April 2005, two months after Jen filed for divorce, the first pictures emerged of the couple together on a beach win Kenya with Ange's son Maddox.
Although he denies adultery, Brad has said he fell in love with the actress on set.

They pair are parents to biological children Shiloh, five, and twins Knox and Vivienne, three.
They also have adopted children Maddox, 11, Pax, eight, and Zahara, six.
Brad, 48, who was nominated for an Academy Award this week for his role in Moneyball, also revealed during the interview the couple may have more children.
'We haven’t closed the book on it,' he said.
'There’s a really nice balance in the house right now, but if we see the need and get that lightning bolt that says "We can help this person; we could do something here," then absolutely.'
He also cleared up rumours on his recent knee injury which saw him using a cane at the Golden Globes two weeks ago.

His best friend George Clooney had been joking about how he hurt himself.
'I think George went down the line, making things up.
'I was just walking in our backyard, on a hill, carrying my daughter, and I slipped — and it was those parental instincts: me or her. And she’s fine.'
Yesterday, Ange, 36, was spotted taking some of the couple's six children to Baskin Robbins for ice-cream.

The Oscar-winning actress leaned over to discuss menu options while a perplexed looking restaurant worker waited to take the order.
One option she may have gone for is the 'Protein Style' burger, which consists of a meat patty, lettuce, tomato and onions without the calorific sugary bun.
Although it was likely she was ordering lunch for her six children.
And the family also contributed to McDonald's recent sales boost, by dining at the restaurant recently.
Over the weekend, Ange was seen out with most of her brood, with daughter Shiloh showing off her new tomboy haircut.
