In a rare interview, Angelina Jolie revealed the reason behind her high-profile split from ex-husband, Brad Pitt. Despite the big controversy that it caused them, the 45-year-old actress believed it was the right decision.
Angelina Jolie saw her split from Brad Pitt as just fair for the wellbeing of her family. She told Vogue that as she continued to focus on their healing, some took advantage of her silence.
She went on to say that their kids would see lies being told about themselves in the media, but she reminded them that they "know their own truth and minds." She then praised their children for being "six courageous and strong young people."
The former couple share six kids, Maddox, 18, Pax, 16, Zahara, 15, Shiloh, 12, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 11. But as the famed humanitarian is a famous A-lister, being a mom comes with great challenges.
Talking about raising her adopted kids, Maddox, Pax, and Zahara, Angelina Jolie revealed that "each is a beautiful way of becoming family." The most important thing for them is to talk with openness and to share.
If there are two things that have the most positive impact on their home, it is adoption and orphanage. The Maleficent star speaks with much detail when she talks them, revealing her journey to find them and what she felt when she looked them in the eyes the first time.
Angelina Jolie revealed that she teaches them to embrace their roots because they come with a beautiful mystery. Despite being adopted and raised in a different country, she wants them to be proud of where they truly came from.
The award-winning actress wants them to honor and learn from their roots. She believes that adopting is the incredible journey that she can share, thinking that they are not entering her world, but she is the one who is setting foot in each of their worlds.
Angelina Jolie is thankful for being the mom of her three adopted kids. She feels blessed to be called their mother and will always be grateful for it every day.
Despite her and Brad Pitt's separation, a source told Entertainment Tonight that they are now in a better place when it comes to co-parenting. The kids are the most important thing for the 56-year-old actor.
The insider revealed that he even told his friends that he learned a lot of things about life through his children. Four years after their split, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are now getting along so much better after they have worked out the custody rules.
