Angelina Jolie has a new house and new outlook on her family's new normal following a difficult year.In a Vanity Fair cover story, the actress and director opens up about her world after splitting with husband Brad Pitt and her health, revealing she at one point suffered from Bell's palsy, a condition that causes partial facial paralysis."I was very worried about my mother, growing up -- a lot. I do not want my children to be worried about me," Jolie told the magazine. "I think it's very important to cry in the shower and not in front of them. They need to know that everything's going to be all right even when you're not sure it is."In the article, Jolie said her relationship with Pitt "became difficult" last summer, around the time she was in postproduction on her upcoming film, "First They Killed My Father," which she directed.She did not elaborate when probed further, but seemingly rejected the notion that the family's travel-heavy, hectic way of living was a point of contention between her and Pitt."[Our lifestyle] was not in any way a negative," she said in the interview. "That was not the problem. That is and will remain one of the wonderful opportunities we are able to give our children . . . They're six very strong-minded, thoughtful, worldly individuals. I'm very proud of them." She adds of her children: "They've been very brave. They were very brave."Pitt and Jolie are parents to Maddox, 15, Pax, 13, Zahara, 12, Shiloh, 11, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 9."We're all just healing from the events that led to the filing . . . They're not healing from divorce," Jolie added. "They're healing from some . . . from life, from things in life."Pitt and Jolie separated in September 2016 and filed for divorce shortly after.Jolie sought sole custody of the children.
Jolie and Pitt's divorce is still being negotiated, according to Vanity Fair.Jolie and the children recently moved into a new 11,000-square-foot house in the Loz Feliz area of Los Angeles, according to the magazine."We care for each other and care about our family, and we are both working towards the same goal," Jolie said.The tumultuous year has seemingly taken its toll on Jolie, who in the piece opens up about developing hypertension and Bell's palsy, which causes muscle weakness."Sometimes women in families put themselves last," she said, "until it manifests itself in their own health." She received acupuncture treatment and made a full recovery from her Bell's palsy.In the past, Jolie has been open about taking a proactive role in her health.She had a double mastectomy in 2013 after learning she carried a gene that made her more susceptible to developing breast cancer. Two years later, she had her ovaries removed as a preventative measure, a move that sent her into early menopause.At one point Jolie jokes with the reporter about developing more gray hair."I can't tell if it's menopause or if it's just been the year I've had."Jolie's film "First They Killed My Father," about the Cambodian genocide, will be released on Netflix this year.

Angelina Jolie: Planning to Have a New Baby, WITHOUT Brad?!

It sounds like Brad Pitt's attempts to win back Angelina Jolie haven't been working out like he'd hoped.Because, on top of stories that Angelina Jolie's been quietly seeing a mystery man, we're now seeing reports that Angelina Jolie is planning to have yet another child ... this time, with her new suitor. Even though it sounds like it's way too soon to have another kid, Star reports that Angelina Jolie is planning her next baby."Angie likes the idea of becoming a mom again."She is, of course, already a mother to six children.But anyone who's ever played a video game knows that each new start is a new fresh beginning to a familiar adventure.Having a series of children can't be too dissimilar from that."But after her marriage imploded, she didn’t know if she’d ever find someone with whom she’d want to have another child."That's understandable.It would be difficult to love again after a legendary romance like theirs.Like, Angelina and Brad were referenced as the epitome of passion by Blair Waldorf on the first season of Gossip Girl.Praise doesn't get much loftier than that."But Angie is serious about this guy."She must be, if she's considering having a kid with him. Her mystery man is reportedly an Oxford-educated philanthropist who is in his 50s and of Middle-Eastern descent.According to Star, things didn't start out too smoothly.Apparently the man "was married but estranged from his wife -- and she was refusing to grant him a divorce."Not the best circumstances for starting a relationship, right?"Angie wouldn’t even consider having a baby with him as long as his situation was unresolved, but now his wife has finally agreed to end the marriage, and Angie feels the timing is perfect."It's awful to think of people trapped for so long in an unwanted marriage, but that's why it's such a serious commitment that shouldn't be undertaken lightly.Though it's worth noting that Angelina and Brad haven't quite wrapped up their divorce proceedings.The alleged new baby would be the couple's biological child.Angelina, of course, had some of her eggs frozen years ago.She'd be using a surrogate.Still, every step of this could be very involved, but the insider addresses that:"Of course, they’ll want a top-of-the-line referral service, and the very best medical care and hospital facilities." That sounds super expensive -- and it will be.he fees and procedures could cost as much as $200,000, but money is obviously no object." In terms of Angelina's divorce from Brad, the insider also has things to say: "Everything is much more calm and civil."Apparently Angelina didn't want to move forward on this plan until things regarding Brad were calmer.You'll recall that Angelina and Brad split after Brad Pitt allegedly became physically abusive of their son Maddox during a flight.Which is, of course, about as serious an accusation as you can make.We still don't quite know all of the details. But whatever altercation occurred on that plane, it was enough for Angelina Jolie to report Brad Pitt for child abuse.(Which is, even if you're not sure, exactly the right thing to do when you suspect abuse, even if our justice system is nearly useless as protecting children). "Angie felt it was important for her and Brad to be in a better place before moving ahead." We don't know how convinced we are.In recent years, Angelina Jolie has tended to display exemplary judgment, whether we're talking about medical issues or global affairs or even just her personal life.Having a baby less than a year after splitting with Brad Pitt? That doesn't sound like her.A lot of it's plausible, but if this is true, we're worried about her mental state.

She's reportedly causing 'complete chaos' in the exclusive gated estate.She’s just moved in to her new property with her six kids, and Angelina Jolie is already ruffling feathers in the community.Apparently the moving process itself had her neighbours in a tizz, with a source telling RadarOnline that it’s caused “complete chaos” in the ritzy area, adding: “There are tons of cars parked around her property every day blocking the roads.” The source claims that fellow residents of the exclusive gated estate are concerned that the disruption caused by Ange, 42, will continue even after the moving trucks are gone.“Neighbours are worried there will be security constantly going in and out and surrounding the house,” the insider told RadarOnline. “There are other celeb rities living in the enclave but there is so much attention on Angelina it’s bound to cause problems.” Even kids Maddox, 15, Pax, 13, Zahara, 12, Shiloh, 11, and twins Vivienne and Knox, 8, aren’t free from the wrath of these cranky neighbours.“Her and Brad’s children are also known for being quite unruly and they don’t have formal schooling," the insider told the outlet."They will probably be at home and running around in the garden every day." How dare they!Ange closed the deal on the $32 million AUD Los Angeles mansion, which once belonged to Hollywood legend Cecil B. DeMille, back in April.Built in 1913, the luxury mansion has six bedrooms and 10 bathrooms.

Angelina Jolie “Breaks Her Silence” Tabloid Cover Story Is Made Up

A new tabloid cover story alleging Angelina Jolie has broken her silence about her divorce from Brad Pitt was made up. Gossip Cop can expose this fake news.“Angie Breaks Her Silence! Brad Put Me Through Hell,” blares the cover of Star. The front of the issue is designed to make readers think Jolie suddenly spoke out about her failed marriage and actually made the comment about Pitt putting her “through hell.” This is a lie. First off, Jolie already broke her silence on the split in a BBC interview earlier this year, followed by a “Good Morning America” interview, as Gossip Cop reported in February. Second, she never uttered “Brad put me through hell” to Star or any other outlet.As it turns out, the cover is a bit of a bait-and-switch. “Angelina Jolie may be ready to reveal the shocking details of her marriage imploded,” the tabloid writes inside the issue. In other words, the Oscar winner hasn’t actually broken her silence in the way the front of the edition claims. Rather, she “may” do so in the future.“Angie’s finally feeling strong enough to talk about her ordeal,” a so-called “pal” alleges to the gossip magazine, claiming Jolie has “started to tell friends about how things fell apart because of Brad’s drinking and his failings as a father, and what really happened between him and Maddox on that airplane.” The outlet’s supposed source goes on to assert, “I hear she my even be writing a tell-all, and word is it could fetch as much as $20 million.”The alleged tipster maintains to the tabloid, “I’m sure the revelations would be absolutely explosive… Her tell-all is going to be one juicy read.” The rest of the article is filled out with a rehash of what allegedly happened on that infamous flight, as well as purported details about the breakdown of the couple’s marriage. And what about the “Brad put me through hell” quote? Well, it’s not written like that in the actual story. Instead, the aforementioned “friend” is merely quoted as saying, “She’s been through hell.” That’s far different than the cover line, which Star purposefully crafted to lure in consumers. But the whole thing is misleading and false, not just that part. Jolie didn’t break her silence to the magazine, and she’s not “ready to give her side of the story” in a tell-book. Gossip Cop is assured this cover story is completely made up.
