Angelina isn't exactly Mother Teresa, but she is one heck of a mother.
She's juggling elevating her six kids, her high-profile acting career, and her philanthropic profession with talent, however she didn't get her super mother abilities from thin air. She got them from her personal mother, actress Marcheline Bertrand.
Out of all the people in Jolie's personal life, we generally tend to listen to more about Jolie's rocky relationship with her veteran actor father, Jon Voight (Jolie dropped Voight and took her middle title in 2002), her even stranger relationship with her brother James (who she as soon as gave a very scandalous kiss on the lips on are living television), and her high-profile relationships with her ex-husbands, Jonny Lee Miller, Billy Bob Thornton (take note that vile of blood?), and Brad Pitt.
In fact, she's experiencing slightly of what her mother went through elevating her and her brother as kids right now as a unmarried mother. Let's just hope the Jolie-Pitt kids have moderately of a higher relationship with their father, then again. We know they love their mother, that's for sure. They shower her with love each Mother's Day, while Jolie has a tendency to look again in any respect that her mother did for her.
Her Mother Gave Up Her Career To Raise Jolie And Her Brother
Bertrand used to be an aspiring actress when she married Voight, but her occupation used to be put on cling once they began a family.
They had a miscarriage in 1972, and Voight recently instructed Page Six that it was once a "great, great loss" to the couple. "It was a great trauma for my wife," Voight said. "She was very disturbed by that. There has been a sadness for the rest of my life, so it’s a serious thing."
Thankfully they had James in 1973 and Jolie in 1975. But sadly, their marriage did not live to tell the tale. They separated in 1976, and Bertrand filed for divorce in 1978, bringing up adultery after Voight cheated on her. He left her to lift their kids and put her own performing occupation on the again burner, but he did supply for his children. That wasn't enough for Jolie, although.
When Jolie began acting, she realized she didn't want to be Voight, no longer simply because she sought after her own profession outdoor her father's shadow but as a result of "I didn't feel that close to my father. I felt more of my mother's daughter when I was a child. So that was one part of it."
Eventually, Bertrand were given back to what she beloved; performing. She starred in the 1983 comedy The Man Who Loved Women, and that very same yr she founded Woods Road Productions. Later on, she also based the All Tribes Foundation, which is helping keep Native American tradition, with her spouse John Trudell. Guess that is where Jolie got her love for philanthropy.
But she was still one among Jolie's idols. "My mother was a full-time mother. She didn't have much of her own career, her own life, her own experiences. Everything was for her children," mentioned Jolie to Daily Mail. Jolie known as her mother "Marshmallow" because she was once "the softest, most gentlewoman."
"She was really sweet and was never angry - she couldn't swear to save her life. But when it came to her kids, she was really fierce, and so this is very much her, her story. She was the woman I related to, who had that elegance and strength for knowing what was right," endured Jolie.
Her Mother Influenced Her As A Person And A Mother
Sadly, Bertrand died in 2007 after a protracted combat with ovarian most cancers. In the letter Jolie penned about her mother to the New York Times, she stated her mother's death changed her. "Losing a mother’s love and warm, soft embrace is like having someone rip away a protective blanket."
To honor Bertrand, regardless that, she's attempted to be as excellent a mother, even supposing she knew she never may just compare. "My mom always made it clear that I was her friend—and that is a lesson on how to bring up my own children," Jolie informed The Sun in 2011. "When we talked, I felt she wanted to hear what I had to say. She enjoyed me, and I feel I'm enjoying my kids. If anybody ever tells me that I am a mother to them like my mom was to me, it will be a great compliment."
She overlooked her mother the maximum throughout her divorce from Pitt. Jolie instructed Elle France, "I know how much she would have contributed to [my kids'] lives, and I am sad they will miss out on that. I would give anything for her to be with me at this time. I've needed her. I talk to her often in my mind and try to think what she might say and how she might guide me."
"There are times when I want to talk to my mother about something the children do, and then I realize she is not there. She gave me a great sense of love. I might have been nutty in my youth, but I was always loving," Jolie persevered to Daily Mail.
Jolie explained that Bertrand did meet Jolie's first son Maddox and was once unbelievable. "As soon as Mad (Maddox) came home, I think she knew that everything was going to be all right," she stated. No subject what Jolie does, she knows she'll by no means be as just right a mother as Bertrand. Jolie got a "W" tattooed on her hand, referencing the Rolling Stones tune "Winter," which Bertrand used to sing to her.
