Angelina Jolie laments her traumatic divorce from Brad Pitt. She claims her children "saved" her

In a recent interview with "Vogue" magazine, Angelina Jolie opened up about the difficult reality after breaking up with Brad Pitt. The star confessed that after what happened, she and her children are still searching for "their place".

In 2016, the media was electrified by the news of the breakup of Angelina Jolie and Prada Pitt. Soon after, shocking details began to emerge about what was happening in their (previously considered harmonious) marriage. Even though after three years of airing dirty laundry the actors managed to divorce, they still can't agree on many issues to this day.

The most serious issue that Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have been arguing about for years is certainly the alleged violence that the star was supposed to use against both his ex-wife and their children. Some time ago, there was a lot of talk about a fateful flight during which he allegedly choked one of the children.

In the latest interview, the actress opened up about the difficult experiences related to what was happening to their family:

We had a lot to do and we're still looking for our place - she confessed in the pages of "Vogue" on behalf of herself and her offspring.

The 48-year-old woman also revealed that motherhood turned out to be her salvation.

I became a mom when I was 26 years old. My whole life changed. Having children saved me. And it taught me to be a little different in this world - she reveals, adding that the little ones gave her strength.

I think that recently, I would have hit rock bottom if I didn't want to live for them. My children are better than me, you want them to be like that.

Jolie also hinted that she has been going through a crisis recently and feels a bit "downcast."

At the age of 48, I'm still trying to understand who I am. It seems to me that I am going through a transformation. I don't feel like I've been myself for the past decade, but I don't want to get into that - she shared her thoughts.

Angelina appeared on the cover of November's "fashion bible" issue. In addition to discussing her separation from Pitt, she also talked about her new clothing brand - Atelier Jolie.

I hope that Atelier Jolie will inspire women to feel safe enough to be "soft", which I myself had difficulty with in the past - she said, recounting a story when a therapist commented on her attire.

It sounds silly, but I assumed that pants and shoes present a "tougher" look, a stronger me. I felt defenseless then - she recalls.
