So much has changed in the past year in Angelina Jolie’s life, but one thing has remained the same: her devotion to her children.
After divorcing Brad Pitt on September 19 last year, Jolie almost completely withdrew from the limelight to focus on taking care of her family, helping her children heal the pain of their parents’ marriage breakdown.
‘I’ve been through ups and downs. I guess I’ve gotten a little stronger,” Angelina Jolie, actress, film producer and philanthropist, told PEOPLE magazine in a recent interview for the magazine’s cover article.
‘We all have difficult times in our lives, but as a mother, you have the responsibility first and foremost to care for the children.
Kids are going through important years of character formation, so everything else I put behind this.”

With six children – Maddox, 16, Pax, 13, Zahara, 12, Shiloh, 11, Vivienne and Knox, 9 – along, the 42-year-old screen star made a public appearance at the premiere of ‘First’ They Killed My Father’ (roughly translated ‘First they killed my father’).
The film is based on the memoirs of author Loung Ung, a friend of Angelina Jolie, who survived the Khmer Rouge genocide, Cambodia.
Jolie insists she is planning to take on more roles in the future, including a role in Maleficent 2, but her first priority remains taking care of her children and making sure they are happy.
She also said her health is ‘better than ever’ at this point.
‘It’s all about the kids,’ she said. ‘I haven’t worked for more than a year because the kids need me at home. Everything used to be very difficult. I sat down and talked to the kids about all the things that affected them.
‘We all have difficult times in our lives, but as a mother, you have the responsibility first and foremost to care for the children. Kids are going through important years of character formation, so everything else I’ve left behind.”
Anytime, anywhere, any kind of project, I will have to find a way to adjust to take care of the children’.
In the interview with PEOPLE, Jolie also talked about how much she missed her mother. Jolie’s mother, Marcheline Bertrand, died 10 years ago from cancer.
She shared that she was very proud that her two sons, Maddox and Pax, participated in the post-production of ‘First They Killed My Father’.
The film was developed on the basis of her long-standing affection for Cambodia. This is also the place where Jolie adopted Maddox in 2002, where she has been doing a lot of humanitarian work over the past 14 years.
Jolie has even set up a fund called Maddox to help local communities with education, healthcare, and other basic needs.
‘I want Maddox to understand how different my country is’ – Jolie said about the purpose of making ‘First they killed my father’.
Although the children still need to heal after a year of ‘Mr and Mrs. Smith’ split, the star said her family has come out of the ‘closed door’ phase and is very ready for adventures. new save.
‘I think the kids are really excited to get back to exploring the world. We, all members who have closed our hearts, have overcome some things together.
I think now is a good time to get out of that and play together and enjoy life,’ said Angelina Jolie.
