Secret Life of the JOLIE-PITT KIDS

Despite Ange and Brad's bitter split, their children remain close and well-grounded

- 

The entertainment world has been intrigued by the Jolie-Pitt children ever since they were babies - and no wonder, given their parents are two of the biggest stars on the planet.

These days, they're all teenagers and have done some rapid growing up, thanks in no small part to Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's bitter divorce, which, despite their ugly split in 2016, is still before the LA family courts.

Speaking to Woman's Day, sources exclusively share that so far the six youngsters still seem to be growing up not too much the worse for the experience, and are becoming fascinating young adults.

VIVIENNE, 13

One half of a twin set, Vivienne is the “mummy's girl" of the brood. “She's the one who is desperate to follow in Angelina's acting footsteps," reveals a source. Interestingly, insiders say the teen “begged for an onscreen role" in Ange's 2014 blockbuster Maleficent when she was just five years old and has been interested in acting ever since.

Vivienne has reportedly had child agents “beating down the door” to sign her, but Angelina wants to wait until she's 16, at least.

“Angelina grew up in the acting world and she wants Vivi to have a normal childhood," says the source, noting Brad very much agrees.
