STUNNING STATEMNT OF ANGELINA’s BROTHER

1.) In a fascinating insight into a very private world, he blames the bullying and manipulation of their handsome movie-hero father, Jon Voight , star of Midnight Cowboy, for blighting both their lives. And he says it is the trauma of their childhood which has driven his sister to create a huge and independent family of her own.
2.) “I have no memory at all of my mother shouting at me or at my sister,” James explains. “But I do have horrible memories of my father and the way he behaved. He was so tough on our mother.
3.) “He lived in the same town. We saw him around Christmas time or at school recitals. He was always around but he never did his job as a father. I think one of the reasons Angelina and I care so much for other people is his treatment of our mother. Angelina and I were very protective of her for that reason.”
4.) “There was very much that home feeling when we came back from school,” he recalls. “Angie and I would walk in and comment on how we could smell things cooking and baking in the kitchen.
5.) “My mum was methodical in making sure we did our homework perfectly. She would do outlines to help us. When we were younger, she used flash cards.
6.) “Or she’d be in the middle of cooking and pick up a carrot and teach us about the vegetable or the fruit so that it was visual as well. Angie is now the same with her kids.”
7.) “Look at what Angelina is doing - her work with the United Nations, raising awareness of refugees. It would just be great if Dad would commend her, or send her a message of encouragement. But she’s never heard those words from him.”
8.) “I did not give Angie a French kiss, it was something simple and lovely,” he insists.
9.) “She was about to go off to Mexico to finish filming Original Sin with Antonio Banderas. I congratulated her on the Oscar win and gave her a quick kiss on the lips. It was snapped and became a big thing round the world.”
10.) “When I first lost my mother, I couldn’t stop crying. Fortunately, I was with Angie when we heard. It was such a big moment.
11.) “If Angelina understood something about missing parents before, she understands completely now. 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.”
