In a recent interview with Vogue, Angelina Jolie spoke about her life since becoming a mother and separating from her ex-husband, Brad Pitt.

“I was 26 when I became a mother. 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.”

She revealed that she hasn't felt like herself for the past ten years and also highlighted how her family has managed to stay strong through tough times. She said:
