In an interview with Vogue, Angelina Jolie emphasized the significance of acknowledging and honoring the cultural roots of her three adopted 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren. When asked about raising both adopted and biological siblings together, the Maleficent actress stressed the importance of respecting each 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥’s cultural heritage. She described how every 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥’s unique background is a beautiful way of forming a family, and explained that in her household, words like “adoption” and “orphanage” hold positive connotations. Jolie emphasized the value of open communication and sharing in creating a supportive home for her diverse family.
In a recent interview with Vogue, Angelina Jolie spoke about the significance of acknowledging her three adopted 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren’s cultural heritage. Despite not being able to speak about pregnancy in relation to her adopted 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren, Jolie expressed her love and admiration for the journey of finding them and the overwhelming emotions she experienced when looking into their eyes for the first time. She further explained that adopted 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren bring with them an enchanting mystery of a world that is different from yours, especially when they come from foreign lands and a different race. According to Jolie, this mystery is a precious gift that is full of wonder.
With her hands full, Angelina Jolie became a mother to Maddox, Pax, and Zahara through adoption before giving 𝐛𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡 to her three youngest 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren, Shiloh, Knox, and Vivienne. She emphasizes the importance of non-biological 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren never losing touch with their roots and encourages learning and honoring where they came from. Jolie sees this as an amazing journey to share and values the experience of raising both biological and adopted 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren.
During a 2017 interview, the actress emphasized the importance of non-biological 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren keeping a connection to their roots. Additionally, she discussed her decision to end her marriage to co-star Brad Pitt for the well-being of their kids. While some have spread untrue stories about her 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren in the media, she reminds them that they know their own truth and minds. She proudly described her six 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren as brave and strong individuals.
According to Vogue, Jolie recently shared that her decision to end her marriage with Brad Pitt was based on the well-being of their family. The former Hollywood power couple had been together for a decade before tying the knot in August 2014, but Angelina filed for divorce in September 2016. Reports claim that an argument between Brad and their son Maddox on a private jet was the catalyst for the split. However, Brad was eventually cleared of any wrongdoing in November 2016. Following the divorce settlement, Angelina was granted physical custody of their six 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren, while Brad was given agreed-upon therapeutic visitation rights.
Despite the media’s misrepresentation of the situation, Angelina Jolie has remained focused on the healing of her family during her divorce. While Brad Pitt sought more time with their 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren and requested to seal all court documents, they eventually agreed to keep those documents private in a joint statement. However, the couple returned to court in 2018 when Angelina was ordered by a judge to help repair Brad’s relationship with their kids. Although he was given more time with them, there were further disputes over 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥 support payments. Recently, Brad filed paperwork to appoint a private judge to help sort out issues regarding their custody agreement, property, and finances, including their French winery. They also agreed on a traditional approach to their 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren’s education. Despite the challenges, the couple has made progress towards finalizing their divorce.
During her hiatus from acting, Angelina Jolie separated from Brad Pitt after a 12-year relationship and six 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren. Amid the pandemic, Brad’s 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren have been spending most of their time with their mother, who lives in a $25 million home just minutes away from Brad’s mansion. Recently, he threw a party for Shiloh, attended by all of her siblings, including Maddox, who was previously estranged from his father. Since his very public divorce proceedings against Angelina began in 2016, Brad has been working hard to mend the rifts in his family. Recently, sources claim that the former couple has been “getting on better” since agreeing on a custody schedule for their 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren. According to a source, Brad considers his kids the most important thing in his life and learns so much from them. He and Angelina have come a long way and are getting along much better now that custody rules have been worked out.
