Angelina Jolie Pitt fell into early menopause following the removal of her ovaries and fallopian tubes, but the setback hasn’t slowed her down one bit. The actress, in fact, is loving this new phase of her life!
“I actually love being in menopause,”; Jolie Pitt told The Daily Telegraph. “I haven’t had a terrible reaction to it, so I’m very fortunate…I feel older, and I feel settled being older.”;
After her much-documented rebellious twenties, the 40-year-old stunner is now an unstoppable force who is feeling better than ever. “I feel happy that I’ve grown up. I don’t want to be young again,” she continued.
Jolie Pitt also opened up about her preventative mastectomy in the latest issue of People magazine, revealing its effect on filming her latest picture, By The Sea. “[The film] was written before I had the mastectomy. And then when I realized I was shooting the film, it did cross my mind to cut certain things,”; she said about the film’s topless scene. “But I felt that was the wrong thing to do. That’s hiding something, and I just don’t believe in that. And then during the edit I got the call that I might have cancer and had to have my ovaries removed.”;
And as the actress continues to grow old alongside husband Brad Pitt she also talks about loving him more with age. “Brad and I are fortunate because we see the beauty in each other’s changes,”; she explained. “I’m more interested in his 50-year-old self than his 40-year-old self. And then you look forward to even more years together.”;
