Angelina Jolie recently shared her plans to leave Los Angeles once her youngest children, 16-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne, turn 18. The actress expressed her desire for privacy, peace, and safety for her family, stating that she will be able to leave LA once her children reach adulthood. Jolie, who has a big family, emphasized the importance of providing a nurturing environment for her children.
Upon turning 18, Jolie intends to spend a significant amount of time in Cambodia, where she has familial connections. She also discussed the challenges of balancing her family life with her career, highlighting the significance of being a parent for 23 years and the role her children play in her life.
Jolie's new movie, 'Maria,' directed by Pablo Larraín, premiered at the Venice Film Festival and follows the life of opera singer Maria Callas. Jolie shared that her sons, Maddox and Pax, worked on the film with her, providing support during challenging moments on set.
The actress's divorce from Brad Pitt has had an impact on their children, with Shiloh recently petitioning to drop 'Pitt' from her last name on her 18th birthday. Zahara and Vivienne have also made similar changes, choosing to use their mother's last name in certain instances.
Sources close to the family revealed that Pitt has struggled to maintain a relationship with his children post-divorce, with tensions arising between him and the kids. Jolie has been described as the primary caregiver, fostering a loving and selfless environment for her children.
