Angelina Jolie and Her Father Back in Contact




Angelina Jolie and Her Father Back in Contact

Angelina Jolie revealed that she is back in contact with her estranged father.

You remember her actor father, Jon Voight. When baby Zahara Jolie-Pitt was adopted he didn’t even know the poor mite’s name. He played 20 questions with interviewers on the red carpet, trying to figure out what on earth she was called.

Well, Voight and Jolie have finally made peace. Thus ending one of the longest, and saddest, crazy daddy and daughter fallings out of all time. The pair have promised a very special promise, without their fingers crossed behind their backs, that they will play nicely and not make passive-aggressive comments about each other in public any more.

Angie cut ties with her dad after his womanising ended his marriage to her mum, late actress Marcheline Bertrand.

She said, “We’re in contact now and writing letters. My parents gave me a strong social conscience as well as any acting genes I may have. “Both my parents were very focused on helping other people and supported charities all their lives.” However, she’s hell bent on bringing her six kids up differently to the way she was raised. She added, “I don’t want them raised as children who have ‘movie star’ parents. “I grew up around that myself and I want to make sure ours are removed from it.” (via The Sun)

  4. I am glad for them, life is too short to hold grudges. Fact is, once that person you hold a grudge against dies, you have to live with it for the rest of your life.
    I just hope they can keep the peace, he is getting old now.
    Colin.

    1. Totally with you, no matter how bad a relationship gets, there’s no taking it back once the person passes away. They don’t need to be friends, but being civil is great, at this point in their relationship.
