Jolie's photographs from a year ago are sure proof: haggard appearance celebrities left no doubt, if not in anorexia, then in an eating disorder unambiguously.
It is all the fault of a difficult relationship that was once one of beautiful women on the planet with food. “She hates being looked at while eating. That is why she completely stopped eating in public - the pictures of food taken by the paparazzi are like the effect of a bomb exploding for her, ”the insider shares. However, behind the closed doors of her mansion, Jolie is also extremely ascetic in matters of cooking.

Childhood Injuries
If not for the divorce of her parents, Angelina Jolie Voight might have grown up as an angelic child and would not have given up her surname famous father... But in 1976, a year after her birth, the mother took her daughter and son James in order to escape from her unfaithful husband John Voight to hell, and chose the state of New York. The divorce was officially filed two years later, after the actor received his first Oscar.
Actress Marcheline Bertrand was 25 years old when she met the popular 33-year-old actor John Voight. By this time, he had already been free for several years. Their romance was impetuous: John knew how to win the hearts of ladies. James was born to them in Los Angeles in 1973, and on June 4, two years later, baby Angie appeared there. Every year he was involved in films, but when he saw his daughter, he took a break. He was good father, but bad husband... Marcheline could not forgive him for betrayal. The family lasted only five years.
She will not communicate with him and will ask for a divorce when she meets another man - director Bill Day. An attempt to start a family will fail: he will never propose to her, and she will not be able to endure a single pregnancy. In 1989, when Jolie turns 14, she will leave him.
Voight will rarely communicate with his children. In 1980 he with his daughter and ex-wife will star in the film "In Search of a Way Out". This event will bring them closer to Znji. In 1986, Marcheline will return to Los Angeles with her children. Here they both go to a private acting school.
Angelina loved her mother very much, but grew up as a wayward child. As a teenager, she suffered from depression and emotional breakdowns. She hated school, although she studied well. The complex of an ugly and awkward girl is most likely from there. She wore all black, dyed her hair an incomprehensible red and was partial to knives. She will begin attending a psychotherapist at school. For a mother, her daughter's tendency to masochism, constant concern for her life and health will turn into a real curse. Maybe that's why in 1990 she was diagnosed with cancer, from which she will die at the age of 56.
Angie never hid some of the facts of her stormy youth, the first experiments to become a model, unsuccessful relationships with a guy and thanked fate that she remained alive. She loved her mother very much and her death turned into an unhealed wound for her. With the mental pain that overtook her in childhood and covered like a snowball, she was able to come to terms.
Relations with my father did not work out, they did not become close people. Even when they starred together in 2001 in the film "Lara Croft Tomb Raider", they constantly quarreled. A year later, Jolie officially changed her last name and stopped inviting him to family holidays, to which the father said that his daughter is not herself.
But she always called her brother the closest person to her. He is also an actor and in some of his early films they play together. But unlike his sister, he reconciled with his father, however, this happened not so long ago: after the death of his mother.
Red carpet
At the age of 18, Angiolina Jolie will play the role of a cyborg woman in a fantastic film directed and produced by Michael Schroder. She was pretty, the attention of the audience was riveted to her character, evoked various emotions, but her second work is considered more successful. The film "Hacker" became a springboard for her film career. Proposals came immediately, and the actress was busy in several films at the same time. The role of the governor's wife in 1997 earned her her first peer recognition: the Golden Globe. The next award will be presented to her in a year for the main role of a model named Gia in the film of the same name. The Oscar will bring her a supporting role in the film, Girl, Interrupted. Brilliant work and so understandable immersion in the world of mentally unstable teenagers: Jolie feels like she was playing herself.
She will play many interesting and not very characters, but the audience will remember both Lara Croft and Miss Smith. Two grossing films in 2001 and 2005 for a long time will be one of the most popular and beloved among fans of her talent. For Angie, they will be turning points in fate: she will visit Cambodia, where part of the filming took place, she will see widespread poverty and disease, after that she will visit there again and again, make millions in donations, and this charity road through the third world countries will lead her to the public title of ambassador good will. And in 2005, her partner in the film will be the father of her future children.
In her career, there will still be bright roles (the main role in the film "Substitution") and interesting projects (dubbing a tigress in the cartoon "Kung Fu Panda"). She will prove herself as a director in 2011 and her film "In the Land of Blood and Honey" will be well received by critics. But neither this film, nor the next one - "Unbroken" - will not win prizes, although they will be nominated several times for the highest awards.
In 2013, Forbes will name her the highest paid actress, calculating that she earned $ 33 million.
In 2015, Angelina Jolie-Pitt's work on the difficult relationship of spouses was released, and they leave for the sea to save their marriage. In this film, she was in several guises at once: screenwriter, director and main character... Despite the fact that she starred with her husband Brad Pitt - this is their joint appearance on the screen after a ten-year hiatus - the critics did not appreciate the star couple's game, calling the plot boring and the game sluggish.
The family drama from the movie screen will step into their lives: rumors will soon go about the breakup of one of the most extraordinary couples in Hollywood.
Broken hearts
The love story of Jolie and Pitt began on the set of the film "Mr. and Mrs. Smith", which put in their budget a nice fee of $ 20 million each, because he grossed $ 478 million at the box office. The film's success was amazing, he received various awards from the film industry.
Brad Pitt by this time was a successful actor (even during filming, he had to leave for several months for another role in the film "12 Monkeys"). Most importantly, he has been married to Jennifer Aniston for five years. But who in Hollywood is embarrassed by this? The lovers demolished all barriers to be together. The actor got divorced, the public did not know how to relate to this: it was a pity for the thrown star, to which the viewer treated with sympathy, but it was nice to watch the happiness of the favorites.
In early 2006, the actress announced that she was pregnant. What Jennifer didn’t do, she did.
By this time, Angelina had completed all of her serious relationship with men. As early as 20 years old, she jumped out to marry co-star Johnny Lee Miller, but quickly parted ways, retaining sympathy. She dated Timothy Hutton for several years, and in 2000 she met her second future husband, 20 years her senior. Together they had fun, they even got married without changing their jeans for wedding dress... The marriage lasted a little longer: three years.
Jolie's humanitarian mission also affected her personal life: she raised adopted son and daughter. She met one-year-old Maddox at an orphanage and adopted in 2002 in Cambodia. Zahara was adopted as an infant in Ethiopia in 2005. In 2007, the couple will adopt three-year-old Pax Thien in southern Vietnam.
She will give birth to her daughter in Namibia to draw attention to the problems of this country, where she has already been on a humanitarian mission. In May 2006, Sha ylo was born. Now there are problems with her: she calls herself John and considers herself a boy. Parents agree with her so as not to break the child's psyche.
In the summer of 2008, Angelina did another cesarean to give birth to twins Knox and Vivienne. All six children have the surname Jolie-Pitt.
It is known that the couple sold pictures of newborns for several million dollars. The money was donated to charity.
The wedding took place at their castle in France ten years after they met - in August 2014. As the parents said, their children wanted a celebration. The bride was in a white dress, on the skirt of which were the drawings of her children.
In two years, Jolie will file for divorce and it will become the main world sensation.
A variety of accusations fell on Brad Pitt: the press wrote that he was cheating on his wife, offending children and drinking. Angiolina got no less: she cannot get out of depression, she stopped eating, looks like a skeleton, her eyes went out, how to live with such. Photos of their friendly family were no longer printed, replacing them with a collage: here it is, here it is, and between them there is a wall. While everyone was gossiping about the reasons for the spat, neither Jolie nor Pitt said a word.
Angelina received custody of the children, but the father can come to the children. The divorce process is predicted to be long and expensive. The parties share property and discuss alimony. Brad Pitt in his statement asks journalists not to communicate with children and calls divorce a difficult period in his life.
The paparazzi announced a hunt for them, but so far unsuccessfully. Pictures of Angelina Jolie, taken last year, are shocking: she lost weight up to 35 kg. How the spouses will get out of this personal crisis is unknown. Jolie can be unpredictable and can surprise again.
She has already made sensational confessions: in 2013, she urged women to do cancer prevention and removed both breasts for herself with subsequent reconstruction, and in 2015 she had her ovaries removed. The actress argued her actions by the fact that the result of her tests showed a high risk of cancer, from which her mother and aunt died.
She found followers: recently, these women participated in a fashion show. underwear held in New York. Jolie did not come, although she was invited. They say that she has a boyfriend.

Perhaps few of Hollywood stars boasts such big family th. The Jolie-Pitt couple have six children: three adopted (Maddox, Zakhara and Pax Tien) and three biological (Shiloh Nouvel, Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline).
The eldest son Maddox was originally adopted only by Angelina, this happened in 2002 even before she met Brad. Angelina adopted a boy from Cambodia when he was only one year old.

The parents themselves consider Maddox the ideal son; they describe him as a mature, caring, "professional" older brother and a true intellectual.
Zahara Jolie-Pitt
Jolie adopted her second child in 2005, this time a girl from Ethiopia. She named her daughter Zakhara. Of all the Jolie-Pitt children, Zakhara had the most difficult childhood. When Angelina took the girl, she was only six months old, and at the same time she suffered from malnutrition, dehydration and salmonella poisoning. The girl was in such a bad state that if it weren't for adoptive parents(Brad had already started dating Angelina at that time), then she most likely would have died before her first birthday.

In 2006, their family was replenished with another member: the couple had a daughter, Shilo Nouvel. The story of the girl's name is very unusual: Angelina's parents wanted to call their first child that was not destined to be born. Angelina liked the name so much that she sometimes even used it herself when she stayed in hotels. Despite its young age Shiloh behaves like a completely independent and free person, not paying attention to the opinions of other people. However, she is already interested in charitable activities her mother and even managed to take part with her in a humanitarian mission.
When Shiloh was born, Brad said at one of the press conferences that his dreams had finally come true.

It is from this point of view that I approach my work now. I finish everything to the end, whereas before I sometimes deviated from the course. "
A year later, after the birth of Shiloh, another child appeared in the Pitt-Jolie family. Become the son of yourself famous couple in the world lucky Vietnamese boy Pham Quang Sang, who after adoption was named Pax Tien. Angelina's mother helped with the choice of a new name for the baby: Pax means "peace", and Thien means "heaven" from Vietnamese. As a child, the boy drove his parents crazy with his impossible behavior. Angelina even joked that the gods sent her Pax as punishment for her own antics, with which she tormented her mother.

“I always thought that if I had a family, it had to be big,” says Brad. “I wanted the house to be in chaos. And now in our house it is always noisy: someone is giggling, someone is screaming, crying or rattling. I really, really, really like it. I hate it when the house is empty. I hate it. Maybe sometimes I would like to be in a hotel room for one day, but the next day I begin to miss all this fuss, and I start to miss that life. "
In 2008, two children were added to the big family at once: Brad and Angelina had charming twins, Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline. Both babies got family names: Knox is in honor of Brad's grandfather, and Vivienne Marcheline is in honor of Angelina's mother. Knox resembles his father in almost everything: appearance, manner of dress and demeanor. Like his older brother Maddox, he tries to help his mother in everything. As for Vivienne, of all the Jolie-Pitt girls, she has the most "girlish" behavior: she loves pink color, princesses and acting in films - Vivienne has already managed to star in the film "Maleficent".
At the same time, Angelina would not want the children to follow in their footsteps:
“We hope that our children will not become actors. We want them to do what they are interested in, and we give them so many ideas to do, so they hardly want to be actors. "
Shiloh wants to change sex?
All Jolie-Pitt children, like their parents, differ in individuality and, to some extent, even in extravagance of behavior. Shiloh went farthest in this regard, who with early years shows signs of transgender. She behaves like a boy in everything, and requires her parents to be dressed only in boys' clothes. At the insistence of Shiloh, they even cut her hair like a boy, cutting off her beautiful blond hair. Shiloh prefers to be called Tom, and spends most of the time with the brothers Maddox and Pax, imitating them in everything.
The family - parents, brothers and sisters - support Shiloh. Angelina and Brad have repeatedly stated that they are calm about the daughter's desire to change sex and respect her choice. They also make sure that peers do not make fun of Shiloh or condemn her.
Angelina believes that children are born as they are, and education cannot change this.
“If you look at the photos of our children - what they were, how they looked, what energy they had, whether they were cute, elegant, restrained, funny, open, daring - you will see that they still remain so the same, - says Angelina. - Much has been given to them since birth. And we believe that you just need to respect their individuality and support them, and not interfere. "
“We put a lot of effort into taking care of our family. We do our best to make everyone feel good and to make everyone feel like a part of the family, says Angelina. - Marriage and parenting is a difficult task. We must try to ensure that work does not interfere with the family. So that what we are doing does not put too much pressure on our family. "
“Of course, children bind us, but the relationship does not rest on children alone. You should be interested in each other, and you should be good together. This is how we feel. Brad and I love to spend time together. We enjoy it. We need this, and we always find time for each other. "
And finally, we suggest watching a video with a selection of photos from the Jolie-Pitt family archive:
