Recently, 48-year-old Hollywood superstar Angelina Jolie revealed in an interview with "Wall Street**" that she plans to leave Hollywood and settle in Cambodia.
Jolie married Brad Pitt, also a Hollywood superstar, in 2014, but their marriage lasted only two years. After the breakup, Julie said that the long divorce lawsuit affected her ability to live and travel freely. Now that the legal proceedings are nearing completion, she plans to leave Hollywood as soon as possible.
Julie grew up in a family of actors, her father was Oscar-winning Jon Voight, and her mother Margelyn Bertrand was also an actress. But she says she's never been impressed by Hollywood's glamour, which she describes as a place that lacks health and authenticity.
Looking back on her career, she admits that she never expected to receive so much public attention or share so much of her personal life. She also spoke about the impact of the ongoing divorce proceedings on her and her six children, and said her family needs time to recover from the divorce and challenges. They are now in a place where they can move forward and focus on the future.
Once the divorce is complete, Julie plans to move to Cambodia with her children. She stated that her children are the closest people in her life, not only her children, but also her close friends. Despite their differences, Julie believes that their diversity is a strength that contributes to their authenticity and connection.
Julie also revealed that she doesn't have much of a social life at the moment. She realizes that her closest friends are refugees, and that most of the women around her come from war and conflict. Julie's decision to move to Cambodia and seek authenticity reflects her desire to break away from the superficiality of Hollywood and find authentic connections and experiences.
She hopes that this will allow her and her children to heal and lead a fuller, more meaningful life.
It is worth mentioning that Angelina Jolie fell in love with Cambodia in 2001 for the filming of "Tomb Raider". In 2002, he adopted his 7-month-old son, Madox, from an orphanage in Cambodia. In 2005, she was awarded the United Nations Humanitarian Award. In the same year, King Sihamoni of the Kingdom of Cambodia issued a royal decree granting Angelina Jolie honorary citizenship of Cambodia. In 2016, Angelina Jolie also directed the film "They Killed My Father First: A Memoir of a Cambodian Daughter".
