Angelina Jolie talks about her daughters undergoing surgery
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt were once one of Hollywood's golden couples. When the couple filed for divorce in September 2016, everyone's hearts were broken (except for those who were expecting a reunion from Pitt and Jennifer Aniston, and trust us, there were many). Yet Jolie held her head high as she immersed herself in life as a single mother, raising her six children - Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, and twins Knox and Vivienne - all under one roof.
While raising so many children is no easy feat, Angie remains humble and quick to see how much she learns from her brood. “My children know my true self and have helped me find it again… I learn from its strength,” Pernicious star burst onto Harper's Bazaar in 2019, adding, “As parents, we encourage our children to embrace all that they are and everything they know in their hearts is right, and they look at us and want the same for us.
More recently, Jolie has had to stay strong for her children, including her eldest daughter Zahara. In a candid essay written for Hora in March 2020, Jolie admitted that two of her daughters were hospitalized. "On this International Women's Day, writing from the hospital, I find myself focused on my daughters for a moment and all that I have learned from them and from other young girls I have met around the world," she shared.
Angelina Jolie's daughters are 'struggling to survive and heal'
Although Angelina Jolie has not gone into too much detail about what exactly is happening with Zahara, she did offer a bit more information about her youngest daughter, who underwent "hip surgery under the knife." While Jolie didn't name which youngest daughter in her Time Trial, People believed it was Shiloh, who was seen on crutches recently. Explaining the strength of her daughters, the 44-year-old wrote: "They understand that going through medical challenges and struggling to survive and heal is something to be proud of."
No matter what's going on in the hospital, the actress is still a proud mother. I've seen my daughters take care of each other. My youngest daughter studied nurses with her sister, and then she attended the next time. I saw how all my girls so easily stopped everything and put themselves first, and I felt the joy of being of service to those they love, ”Jolie said. "I also saw them face their fears with determined courage."
As for her ex-husband, Brad Pitt? According to Page Six, the Once Upon a Time in Hollywood actor skipped the BAFTAs to be by his daughter's side, sending his co-star Margot Robbie to accept her award on his behalf. It is unknown if Pitt and Jolie are currently on good terms, although it is a bit peculiar that Jolie did not mention her ex-husband, as she wrote that she and her children were all in the hospital together.
The Jolie-Pitt children are very close.
Not surprisingly, Angelina Jolie's children were by her sisters' side during their hospital stay. It turns out that they are all very close. «When you know that your children love each other and you see the way in which all of them, without any kind of prompting or push, give each other notes, hug each other, hug each other, support each other, then you feel that they will be fine and they will always have one to the other ', the starlet salt sprouted to Entertainment tonight in August 2019.
The puddle of love doesn't stop there, as Angie's children are also very supportive of her mother (which is something that cannot be said about Brad Pitt and his difficult relationship with his son, Maddox). Jolie revealed how her children celebrate her on special days in an interview with Hello! in 2019. «On Mother's Day, my children prepare my breakfast and pick me flowers; They treat me like a lady, ”she proudly revealed.
Ultimately, the main lesson Jolie wants her children to take away from her is kindness, something she revealed to Harper's Bazaar that same year. «They are very open-minded and very friendly. I try to lead by example and be as kind and gentle and loving and tolerant as my mother, ”she explained. «When you have to fight, I want you to feel that you have the strength. So I hope you are learning to be kind.
Angelina Jolie reminds 'young ladies' everywhere to 'fight'
Another important component of Angelina Jolie Hora essay was her discussion of women's rights. In fact, the piece was even titled "Why Girls Deserve Love and Respect on International Women's Day." While the article definitely touched on her daughters' surgeries, the star's message was more universal.
“The gentleness of girls, their openness and instinct to nurture and help others, should be appreciated and not abused. We must do much more to protect them, in all societies, "she wrote, then summed up perfectly:" And my message to girls, fight, ladies. Your care for each other will be a big part of your way forward. Be calm. Know your rights «.
It's not the first time that the Girl Interrupted actress has also spoken out about women's rights. In fact, in 2019, Jolie wrote another essay for Elle, discussing her struggle globally. "In my work, I travel to countries where I know that, if I were a citizen there, my beliefs and actions as a woman could land me in jail or put me in danger," she explained, before continuing to list examples of what she has found throughout the world. world.
