Angelina Jolie Reveals Plans to Leave Hollywood

And for the actress, that includes her seven-year legal battle with Brad over custody and estate claims. Outside of the public interest in the case between the estranged couple, the divorce has also put stress on their six children Maddox, 22, Pax, 20, Zahara, 18, Shiloh, 17, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 15. The divorce, she says, took a toll on everyone.  

“We had to heal,” Angelina added of the ordeal to WSJ. “There are things we needed to heal from.”  

As for where the Eternals star will go after leaving Hollywood behind? Angelina plans to spend more time at her home in Cambodia and seek out “authenticity,” with her children. “They are the closest people to me and my life, and they’re my close friends,” she told WSJ. “We’re seven very different people, which is our strength.”
