Angelina Jolie Exposes The Insecurity Brad Pitt Used Against Her

Angelina Jolie Exposes The Insecurity Brad Pitt Used Against Her

I hadn’t held children in my life and I was always considered so dark. And I always had so many things that made me feel like maybe I shouldn’t be somebody’s mom because certainly the world has an opinion of me. She had always felt something wasn’t right, long before the world had said it out loud. I didn’t know if I belonged in this world. I didn’t know if I, I never felt calm. I couldn’t sleep. I always, nothing was ever enough and had voices, you know, just couldn’t shut certain things off. I always felt a little strange or different and I wasn’t laughing very much in my life about anything. And kinda always would see people with kids or married or in love and thought, that’s great. That’s not my life, and I wish I could have that, but I’m never gonna have that ’cause I’m all over the place and I’m never gonna be calm or stable or normal or safe. Convinced she was too much to ever be a mother, Angelina poured herself into her work. But while filming on location, she heard something that stayed with her. I was told about refugees and refugees returning and landmines. And at the time I thought, I just didn’t understand that that existed today, country’s full of landmines or large refugee populations. There were just tens of millions of people. And I started to realize how much I didn’t know. So, I started traveling and- and I just asked to go into the field and start to bear witness to what was happening in the world. And my whole life changed. I realized how sheltered I’d been and I just felt a responsibility to be a better person. And one day while visiting an orphanage in Cambodia, she met someone who saw her in a way that no one else had. He was three-months-old and he was asleep and they put him in my arms and he stayed asleep, and they put him in the bath and he stayed asleep. And I thought he was narcoleptic or something. And he opened his eyes and he just stared at me for the longest time. And I just stared at him and I started crying. And he smiled. So, the fact that this little kid seemed at ease, gave me the courage to feel like I could make him happy. And so, we became a family right then. Has he made you happy? Oh, unbelievably happy, yeah. Yeah. He made me believe in fate and some kind of God knows how we found each other, but we found each other. He’s my best friend. He’s my everything. Adopting Maddox marked the beginning of a new chapter for Angelina, one where her humanitarian work and her personal life became intrinsically intertwined. For the first time, she felt a sense of belonging. And in the years that followed, she gave that same feeling to every child she welcomed into her family. But when Angelina met Brad Pitt, everything changed. Seemingly overnight, her entire image softened. The rebel had disappeared. In her place was a woman the world barely recognized. And her marriage to Brad became the stuff of Hollywood dreams. What makes you guys so strong? I think six kids make you strong. I think a commitment to each other. I think a commitment to understanding each other, and that bonds of love in my mind. Their bond seemed unbreakable. But then one day, the world woke up to shocking news. 12 years together and six children, Angelina Jolie is filing for divorce from Brad Pitt. As their divorce unfolded, people demanded answers. And the woman who had once been so open and honest about every part of her life was nowhere to be seen. Angelina’s silence became fuel for a media frenzy, and it didn’t take long for them to pick a target. The judge reportedly warning Jolie, stop blocking her kids’ relationship with their father or the court will take away much of their time with her. Angelina grew up in a very rocky family where she did not see her father. And although she might think this is normal, California law does not see sole custody as best interest of the children, she’s gonna have to share, the law makes Angie share. Angelina had to sit back and watch the media speculation about her spread like wildfire, sparking chaos across the internet. Just another controlling, bitter woman. (stream of online hate) Angelina was always so fiercely protective of her kids. So, when FBI and court documents leaked, revealing what had happened between her and Brad, the truth hit harder than anyone expected. According to the leaked documents, Angelina, Brad, and their six children were returning home from France. But somewhere mid-flight, a quiet journey back to LA turned sinister. Brad had been drinking. What began as a disagreement escalated quickly. One of the children asked, “Mommy, are you okay?” Brad turned to the child and said, “No, mommy’s not okay! She’s ruining this family. She’s crazy.” The man she loved had turned violent and erratic, throwing her deepest insecurity right back in her face. So, once she and the children were safe, Angelina filed for divorce. And after years of silence, when she was finally asked about the incident, Angelina responded the way any mother would. My focus is my children, our children, we are and forever will be a family. That is how I’m coping. I’m coping with finding a way through to make sure that this somehow makes us stronger and closer. I’ve just, I’ve learned that there’s- that there are real things in life to be dealing with and focusing on and I tend to worry less about or focus less on the incidental things. You are a member of the Council on Foreign Relations. Mm-hm. You’re a humanitarian activist. Do you ever miss being a bad girl? I’m still a bad girl. Yeah? You know, I still have that side of me that is, it’s just, it’s in its place now. You know, somebody said I was crazy because- because of certain places I’m going with the UN and they said, “Well, that’s really dangerous and really stupid and really crazy.” And I thought, well, so my crazy’s found a purpose. The refugees I have met and spent time with have profoundly changed my life. The 8-year-old girl who saved her brother taught me what it is to be brave. The pregnant woman in Pakistan taught me what it is to be a mother. And the paralyzed boy who’d been shot in the back with his big smile, showed me the strength of an unbreakable spirit. I finally feel like this is the right life and I’m actually, I’m on it now. I was a bit off track for a while here and there, not exactly knowing who I was. Now I think I know. There’s that fire in all of us. And so often when you’re young or at different times in your life, you think that there’s something wrong with it. It’s a bad thing ’cause it’s misdirected and you don’t know if you’re a good person and you don’t know what you’re contributing, you feel like, and that it is that fight and that fire and that little bit of trouble that if directed in the right way, it can be a force for good and brave and wonderful.

Angelina Jolie rose to fame as Hollywood’s biggest bad girl, but the world had no idea what she was really dealing with behind the scenes. After years of being called crazy, Angie was plagued with self-doubt – until she met one person who saw her for who she really was.

When she met Brad Pitt, the world thought Angelina had finally settled down – until leaked FBI documents revealed the shocking truth about their relationship. Now Angelina is opening up about the links between her humanitarian work, her unlikely journey to motherhood, and her fight for her family amid her controversial divorce.
