Angelina's brother explains her weight loss
Angelina Jolie must love that her brother, James Haven, talks freely about her to the press. Anyway, understandably, Marcheline Bertrand's death from cancer at the age of 56, has been devastating to Haven and Jolie. Haven stated the following to British publication The Mail on Sunday:

"Angie has become very thin because she's grieving. I keep saying to her, 'Don't forget to eat.' But you know she doesn't pay much attention to food anyway and she's been going through a process of grief like me. She has not wanted to eat, nor has she been able to. "

"If Angelina understood something about missing parents before, she understands completely now," he said. "Angelina and I are orphans too, in a way. When you see those kids in orphanages, they cling to each other. And that's exactly what they have -- they have each other."

  • God that's understandable, who doesn't lose weight when they lose their parents. That's only normal.
