Angelina Jolie's Brother Says He's "Protective" of Her and Her Kids as Her Divorce From Brad Pitt Continues to Unfold

Angelina Jolie and Brother James Haven.

Angelina Jolie's big brother, James Haven, is opening up about what he feels his role is as a sibling and uncle and as his younger sister continues her divorce proceedings from estranged husband, Brad Pitt.

In a recent interview on the 90who10 podcast, Haven was asked about his "very close" relationship with his sister.

(If you recall, in 2000 Jolie famously kissed her brother on the lips after winning an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her performance in Girl, Interrupted and people collectively lost their minds.)

In response, Haven said that he has been supportive of her sister and his six nieces and nephews as their personal life continues to unfold "in the public eye.”

"That’s where it all started," the proud big brother said. "It started with the protection of her and her children—my nieces and nephews.”
