Angelina Jolie had trouble getting over Brad Pitt as she loved him 'like she hadn’t loved anyone else before'

Two years after breaking up with Pitt, Jolie seems to have arrived at a comfortable place and is taking solace in her kids and family
UPDATED FEB 4, 2019

Actors Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt were together for 11 long years, and getting over a relationship that's lasted that long can definitely be a hard thing to do, especially when you throw kids into the mix.

Though the duo has been separated for about two years now, a source revealed to Hollywood Life that it has taken a while for Jolie to be happy after their separation.

“The divorce was really hard on Angie, as she loved Brad like she hadn’t loved anyone else before, so it’s nice to see her turning a corner and seeming a lot more relaxed and at ease these days,” the source revealed.

“She was very tense and not herself when she and Brad first separated. Angie likes to live a private life for the most part, however, she also likes to live a very normal life which is why she has no problem taking her kids to do normal kid activities. Even with photographers there, she will still continue doing this. It’s really important for Angie to let them be normal children.”
