   "Angelina Jolie and her partner Brad Pitt love to take their children to visit a new place over the festive season.Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt don't like to spend Christmas in one place.The Hollywood couple raise six children together, Maddox, 11, Pax, nine, Zahara, seven, Shiloh, six, and four-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne, and when it comes to the festive holidays, they like to travel around the world instead of buying them expensive gifts.She said: ''I love to travel in the holidays, because I feel like I'd rather give the kids the gift of a new country than a box of presents. But I still give them some presents!''The family are known for their globe-trotting adventures but Angelina says she and Brad have a pact that only one of them will be away from the children at one time so they fit their work schedules around that.She added: ''I have a great partner in Brad and before we had all of our children, we agreed that in order to have a big family, we would never work at the same time.''When he is shooting a film, I am not filming and I'm home and I'm just focusing on the kids and on occasion I take trips and I do my UN work. Then when I'm working, he does the same, so I don't do all of these things all of the time.''

They'd spend the weekend learning to swear.''I didn't need to teach them anything new, as they had watched Malcolm Tucker already. But I was happy to give them a few partners.'' Brad, 48, has been shooting upcoming film 'World War Z' with Peter, while 37-year-old Angelina appeared in 'Maleficent' with him.Angelina recently revealed she plans to give up acting when her children get older.The 'Salt' actress - who raises kids, Maddox, 11, Pax, nine, Zahara, seven, Shiloh, six, and four-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne with fiance Brad - says once all her brood hit their teenage years she is going to stop making movies so she can spend more time with them.She said: ''I think I'm going to have to give up the acting as the kids hit the teenage years, too much to manage at home ... I will do some films and I am so fortunate to have the job, it's a really lucky profession to be a part of and I enjoy it.''But if it went away tomorrow I would be very happy to be home with the children. I wake up in the morning as a mum and I turn on the news like everybody else and I see what's happening and I want to be part of the world in a positive way.''

           An email Angelina Jolie sent ex-husband Brad Pitt amid their ongoing divorce battle - with the focus on the ownership of their Chateau Miraval Winery - has publicly resurfaced.A TikTok user under the handle @magshrts1 posted slides showing content of the email, which the Oscar-winning actress, 47, wrote in January of 2021, Entertainment Tonight confirmed in a court document.The Maleficent actress said she had written the email 'so not to get emotional' in explaining her rationale behind her decision to sell her share of the winery.'It is the place we brought the twins home to, and where we were married over a plaque in my mother’s memory,' Jolie said. 'A place that held the promise of what could be and where I thought I would grow old. Even now impossible to write this without crying. I will treasure my memories of what it was a decade ago.'The Los Angeles native said that the winery 'is also the place that marks the beginning of the end of our family - and a business that is centered around alcohol.'Jolie said she had hoped the winery 'somehow it could become something that held us together' but now saw how Pitt, 58, 'really wanted [her] out and will most likely be pleased to receive this email.'The Eternals star said in the prior four years, she witnessed 'lots of inconsiderate behavior' and felt excluded from the business end of the winery as there was 'money spent in ways that [she] would not have approved, and decisions made that [she] was not consulted on.'Jolie said she had 'been hurt by decisions that have been made that show no interest in sharing the business or changing it fundamentally into something that would be healthier for our children.'Jolie was critical of advertising of the winery, saying she 'was shaken by the recent imagery that was released to sell the alcohol.'I find it irresponsible and not something that I would want the children to see,' she said. 'It reminded me of painful times.'
          Jolie said she could no longer 'be involved, publicly or privately, in a business based on alcohol, when alcoholic behavior harmed our family so deeply;' and that the 'business is therefore past the point of anything that [she] could be part of, morally and for the good of our family.'Jolie said she saw 'two ways forward,' the first being an 'outright sale' she'd support in an effort to 'move away from this hard and painful chapter in our lives.'She continued: 'The alternative is that a complete buy out of my share in the property and business by you, the Perrin family or your associates. Either way, I believe we need to move forward in order to heal and focus on where our family comes together, and where we have positive associations. And to do so quickly.'Jolie made reference to a 2016 incident on a private jet in which previously she said in court docs that Pitt 'lunged at his own child;' 'choked one of the children and struck another in the face;' and 'poured beer' on her.' Said Jolie: 'I cannot begin to express how upsetting it is for me to have to reach this point. Your dream for your relationship to the business and the alcohol is your own and you’ve made it painfully clear. 'I wish you all the best with the business, and sincerely hope that the children feel differently about Miraval when they are older, and visit you there. But Miraval for me died September 2016, and everything I have seen in the years since has sadly confirmed that.'Jolie in February was sued by Pitt after she sold her share of the winery to Russian oligarch Yuri Shefler and his Stoli Group subsidiary, Tenute del Mondo. Pitt said in court docs that while Jolie did pledge 40 percent of the $28.4 million they invested in the winery, she had not done any work on the project. He said that the sale also violated a 'mutual understanding' in their 2019 divorce pact in that they agreed not to sell their interest in the venue without the approval of the other. In September, Jolie's one-time company Nouvel sued Pitt for $250 million, saying he 'masterminded a so-far-successful plan' to control the winery.Jolie and Pitt are parents to six children: Maddox, 21, Pax, 18, Zahara, 17, Shiloh, 16 and twins Vivienne and Knox, 14.Pitt and Jolie, who wed in 2014 and split in 2016, have been entangled in the legal system amid battles on multiple issues over the past six years.
