‘I See My Family In My Face, I See My Age’…Angelina Jolie Talks Ageing, Children And More In New Interview

 Hollywood icon Angelina Jolie, is all but accepting of the fact that she is ageing. According to the actress in a new interview with InStyle, the older she gets the more she sees a  resemblance between herself and her late mother, Marcheline Bertrand. ‘I look in the mirror and I see that I look like my mother, and that warms me. ‘I also see myself aging, and I love it because it means I’m alive—I’m living and getting older.  ‘Don’t love having a random dark spot from a pregnancy, sure. I see my flaws. But what I see that I like isn’t about a structure or an appearance. It’s more that I see my family in my face. I see my age.’  On social media and her kids learning to express themselves jsutly without the influence of the internet, the mother of 6 and ex-wife of actor Brad Pitt said; ‘My children don’t really do a lot of social media. ‘I’m hoping they’ll have room to figure out what they like before they’re told by a bunch of other people what they should like or how they’re being perceived. My mom used to say when I was little, “Let me see your soul.”  ‘That was her thing. Whenever I’d get upset or something, she’d say, “Let me see your soul.” What it meant was, “Show me you. Are you mad? Let me see.” I’ve never really talked about that. I think, I hope anyway, that’s how I’m raising my children: Put what’s inside you forward and find you, figure out who you are.’  Photo Credit: InStyle
