Angelina Jolie on How Her Late Mother Influences Her Parenting Style: 'I Talk to Her Often in My Mind'
Angelina Jolie misses her mother. In an interview with Elle France, the
41-year-old star says her late mother, Marcheline Bertrand, would have "thrived
as a grandmother."
"I know how much she would have contributed to their lives and I am sad they
will miss out on that," Jolie said, referring to her six children with estranged husband Brad Pitt.
"I would give anything for her to be with me at this time. I've needed her. I
talk to her often in my mind and try to think what she might say and how she
might guide me."
Bertrand died of cancer in
2007. She was 56 at the time
Now a busy mom herself, Jolie told the magazine that her children were "the
greatest gift and responsibility," and said that she believes listening is one
of the major keys to successful parenting.
