Angelina Jolie Reveals Heartbreaking Reason Why She Wasn’t Seen In Public During Brad-Jennifer Reunion

Angelina Jolie stayed out of the limelight while her ex-husband, Brad Pitt, was making headlines due to his reunion with Jennifer Aniston. Now, the “Maleficent” star has finally revealed the real reason for her absence.

In an article she wrote for TIME, Jolie revealed that she was busy taking care of her two daughters, Zahara and Shiloh, who both underwent surgeries. The mom of six revealed that she has spent the past two months in and out of surgeries with Zahara and for Shiloh’s hip surgery recently.

“They know that I’m writing this because I respect their privacy and we discussed it together and they encouraged me to write. They understand that going through medical challenges and fighting to survive and heal is something to be proud of,” she wrote.

Jolie went on to praise her children for supporting each other during such a difficult time. She also revealed that her daughter Vivienne studied how the nurses took care of her sisters and assisted them afterward.

“I saw how all my girls so easily stopped everything and put each other first, and felt the joy of being of service to those they love,” she said.

Last month, reports revealed that Pitt canceled his attendance at the BAFTAs at the last minute. At that time, a source claimed that it was because the “Once Upon A Time In Hollywood” star was reuniting with his estranged son, Maddox.

However, it has now been revealed that Pitt skipped the awards show to be with his biological daughter, Shiloh. According to Page Six, the actor had an important family obligation to attend to at that time. However, it is unclear if Shiloh’s surgery also meant that Pitt and Jolie reunited.

The A-listers announced their divorce in 2016 and Pitt’s alcohol addition and alleged abuse of their eldest son, Maddox, were some of the reasons that Jolie wrote in her court filing. The former couple is also still fighting over the custody of their kids.
