Angelina Jolie confesses she ‘lacks skills to be a stay at home mom’; Says ‘I’m managing through’
Angelina Jolie recently spoke to British Vogue in a rare interview and opened up about motherhood. The Oscar winner opens up about her family life, sharing what a “typical day” for her family looks like. In a video interview with the publication, the actress can be heard saying “I was never very good at sitting still. Even though I wanted to have many children and be a mom, I always imagined it kind of like Jane Goodall, travelling in the middle of the jungle somewhere,” said Jolie. “I didn”t imagine it in that true, traditional sense. I feel like I’m lacking in all the skills to be a traditional stay-at-home mom.”
“I’m managing through it because the children are quite resilient, and they’re helping me, but I’m not good at it at all,” she adds. “… I love them. I feel like we’re such a team. It may sound clichéd, but you love and you try, and even if you burn the eggs, that doesn’t matter in the end,” Jolie continues.
Further ahead in the interview, the Maleficent actress can also be seen talking about her love for babies. She also said she especially “loves sitting up at night and talking to my kids.” She celebrates all the stages of parenthood, noting she likes “the teenage years. I like the older years. I love hanging out with them.” The Salt actress says she’s “looking forward” to her 50s — and shares a humorous moment that happened recently with her kids in regards to her age in their perspective.
Jolie is mom to six children: Maddox, 19, Pax, 17, Zahara, 16, Shiloh, 14, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 12.
