🎬 A Star is Born
Born in 1975 to actor Jon Voight and actress Marcheline Bertrand, Jolie was destined for fame — but her childhood was anything but easy. Her parents separated when she was just a baby, and she had a strained relationship with her father for many years.
Growing up, she struggled with self-esteem, bullying, and even self-harm.
💔 Personal Battles and Mental Health
Angelina has openly spoken about her mental health struggles, including depression, isolation, and a deep feeling of being “different.” Her bold honesty about these issues set her apart in a Hollywood that often hides such vulnerabilities.
“I was self-destructive. I didn’t feel grounded or safe.”
💘 Love, Controversy, and Heartbreak
Angelina’s love life has made headlines for decades:
- Married actor Jonny Lee Miller (1996–1999)
- Then Billy Bob Thornton — their PDA and blood necklace drama shocked the world
- Finally, her most famous relationship: Brad Pitt
Their 12-year relationship included marriage, six children, and global media obsession. But in 2016, they divorced amid emotional conflict and allegations of distance.
👩👧👦 A Mother Above All
Despite the fame, Jolie says her biggest role is being a mom. She adopted her first child, Maddox, in 2002 from Cambodia. She later adopted Zahara from Ethiopia and Pax from Vietnam. She also gave birth to Shiloh, Knox, and Vivienne with Brad Pitt.
Jolie’s parenting style is protective and globally conscious — she travels frequently with her kids and teaches them diverse cultures.
