Jolie says she took step back from Hollywood because her family had ‘healing’ to do
Angelina Jolie is seemingly speaking out about her divorce from Brad Pitt, admitting that she made a big change in her career seven years ago so she and her family could focus on “healing.”

Jolie and Pitt shocked fans when they announced their divorce in 2016, just two years after they finally tied the knot.
Now, while discussing her fashion house, Atelier Jolie, in a new interview with Vogue, the actress said, “Sometimes the way you dress says, ‘Don’t mess with me — I’ve got my armor on.’ But I want a woman to feel safe enough that she can be soft.”

“After I went through something where I was hurt, I had a therapist ask if I would try wearing a flowing garment. Sounds silly, but I assumed that pants and boots projected a ‘tougher’ look, a stronger me. But was I strong enough to be soft? At the time, no, I felt vulnerable.”

Jolie continued, saying, “Now I wonder if I don’t know what my style is because I’m still understanding who I am at 48. I guess I’m in transition as a person.”
She said, “I feel a bit down these days. I don’t feel like I’ve been myself for a decade, in a way, which I don’t want to get into.”

While she didn’t delve into intimate details of why she feels that way, she did say that “seven years ago” – which would have been in 2016, the year she left Pitt – she made the choice to do fewer movies and “only taking jobs that didn’t require long shoots.”

“We had a lot of healing to do,” she said of her family, comprised of the six children she shares with her ex-husband. “We’re still finding our footing.”
She credited Atelier Jolie for assisting in the healing process, explaining, “I think part of this has also been therapeutic for me – to work in a creative space with people you trust and to rediscover yourself. I’m hoping to change many aspects of my life. And this is the forward-facing one.”
At another point in the interview, Jolie spoke more about her children and the massive impact they’ve made on her life while also alluding to this difficult time she’s been facing.
“I was 26 when I became a mother,” she said. “My entire life changed. Having children saved me and taught me to be in this world differently. I think, recently, I would’ve gone under in a much darker way had I not wanted to live for them. They’re better than me because you want your children to be.”
“Of course, I’m the mother, and hopefully that safe place for them and that stability. But I’m also the one that they laugh at, and I see them taking over so many different aspects of our family.”
While Jolie typically doesn’t speak in detail about the breakdown of her marriage, certain accusations have been made public because of the lengthy court battle between her and Pitt.
Jolie first accused Pitt of physically abusing her and the couple’s children in a complaint filed in the ongoing lawsuit.
During a 2016 fight, Pitt allegedly “choked one of the children and struck another in the face” and “grabbed Jolie by the head and shook her.” He then poured “beer and red wine” on her and their six children. “Some of the children pleaded with Pitt to stop,” according to the documents filed in Los Angeles Superior Court.
Court documents stated, “They were all frightened. Many were crying.” Jolie filed for divorce shortly after the alleged altercation.
After being investigated by the FBI, a probable cause statement was provided to the U.S. attorney’s office.
“After reviewing the document, [a] representative of the United States Attorney’s Office discussed the merits of this investigation with the case agent,” the FBI report said. “It was agreed by all parties that criminal charges in this case would not be pursued due to several factors.”
A source familiar with the matter told Fox News Digital that the claims made by Jolie were false.
“She continues to rehash, revise and reimagine her description of an event that happened six years ago by adding completely untrue information each time she fails to get what she wants,” the source said.
The latest filing, which was done by Jolie’s former company, Nouvel, in July, accused Pitt of running a “vindictive campaign” to “loot” the business after she filed for divorce.
The two first became romantically involved in 2004, and they married in 2014. They share six children: Maddox, 22, Pax, 19, Zahara, 18, Shiloh, 17, and 15-year-old twins Vivienne and Knox.

Arnold Schwarzenegger believes his story with Maria Shriver will continue “forever”. Here’s what he has to say about their relationship!
Arnold Schwarzenegger believes his story with Maria Shriver will continue “forever”.

The 76-year-old actor and Maria, 67, finalised their divorce back in 2021 – but Schwarzenegger insists that she’ll always be a big part of his life.
In his new motivational book, ‘Be Useful: Seven Tools for Life’, Schwarzenegger shares: “We never left the [first] chapter. Because remember, it’s not like we had a feud. We didn’t have a fight. It’s just my f*** up, right?

“She said, ‘Okay, this is what it is,’ and then she decided to make a split, so it was her decision. But the fact is, we always made it very clear that the kids should not suffer because of that.”
The Hollywood star and Maria split after it emerged that Schwarzenegger fathered a son with Mildred Baena, the family’s long-time housekeeper.

However, the former couple – who have Katherine, 33, Christina, 32, Patrick, 30, and Christopher, 26, together – have continued to spend a lot of time together since then.
Schwarzenegger said: “So everything is kind of just as if we’re together but we have separate lives. And she has her things, her relationship, I have mine, but we always communicate about the kids, about the holidays, about birthday parties and Mother’s Day parties and Christmas.

“My chapter with Maria will continue on forever. Even though it’s a different relationship, there’s no reason for me to feel anything other than love for her.”
The actor – who married Maria in 1986 – previously described their split as his biggest “biggest failure” in life.
He told Howard Stern: “That was, without any doubt, the biggest setback and the biggest failure. You can’t point the finger at anyone else.”

Portuguese fútbol icon Cristiano Ronaldo apparently just made a TikTok account, and it’s already been banned as fans flock to follow him on the video-sharing platform.
When it comes to fútbol, there are few names as famous as Cristiano Ronaldo. The Portuguese pro is one of the most prominent athletes in the world, currently playing as a Forward for Al Nassr.

Having won a multitude of honors and cementing himself as one of the best strikers in the world, he’s a globally famous figure who already boasts a massive following online on platforms like Instagram.
In fact, Ronaldo has the second most-followed profile on Instagram, sitting right behind the official Instagram account at over 606 million followers. Now, the athlete seems to be making another major splash on a different social media platform.

Fans confused as Cristiano Ronaldo TikTok account gets bannedIn September 2023, Ronaldo seemingly made an account on TikTok for the very first time. In just a matter of hours, his supposed account managed to rake in millions of followers, with his videos garnering tens of millions of views each.
Unfortunately, it looks like TikTok had some troubles with this account, as it has been suspended at the time of writing, leaving fans completely confused.

Right now, it’s unclear why TikTok took this action. It could be that the platform worried he was impersonating himself. This has happened to other celebrities and influencers in the past on other sites.
Ronaldo has yet to comment on the matter, but some fans are convinced that the account wasn’t actually him. Commenters have pointed out that it was either someone impersonating him due to using tags like #fyp and #viral, while others suspect that it may have been run by his team.

Whatever the case may be, the entire situation has left fútbol enthusiasts scratching their heads in confusion. We’ll keep you updated on the ordeal right here at Dexerto.
