Hollywood’s power couple Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, who got engaged two years ago are letting their six kids, Maddox, 12, Pax, 10, Zahara, nine, Shiloh, seven, and twins Knox and Vivienne, five, give their suggestions for the big day. Angelina admits that her little ones want an unconventional celebration.
‘’We are discussing it with the children and how they imagine it might be. Which is verging on hysterical, how kids envision a wedding. It’s going to be Disney or paintball — one or the other,” said Angelina.
Angelina’s son Knox designed her a ring depicting her latest character — evil witch Maleficent — for Mother’s Day. The six-year-old drew a picture of his mother in her role as evil queen Maleficent from her latest movie, which was then made into a gold band as a gift for her to celebrate the day on May 11.
Referring to her fiancé and actor Brad Pitt, Jolie said: “Brad’s really creative with the kids, so they made a bunch of things like pillows and notebooks. Knoxy made me a picture of Maleficent that they made into a ring.”
“Vivienne, Knox’s twin sister, made me stationery and pillows for my office,” added the actor, reported IANS.
Of her 10-year-old, she said: “I loved (Disney character) Goofy when I was little. So Pax drew me a Goofy shirt. I wore that with a crown Vivienne found for me.”
Raising children together has evolved Brad and Angelina’s nine-year-old relationship. ‘’You’re not lovers or boyfriend and girlfriend as much as you are a family,” said Angelina to People’s magazine.
Angelina underwent a double mastectomy last year after learning she carries the BRCA1 gene, which means she has a high chance of getting breast cancer. She said she is happy about the choices she made and having the procedure makes her feel ‘’more connected’’ to other women, reported Time of India.
