Jon Voight has wonderful things to say about his daughter Angelina Jolie’s relationship with her children.
“She loves her kids, she’s always involved with them, always concerned for them,” he told reporters while attending the seventh annual Gold Meets Golden — a pre-Golden Globes gala — on Saturday in Beverly Hills.
“She monitors everything,” the actor, 81, added. “She’s great.”
Jolie, 44, has six children whom she shares with ex Brad Pitt: Maddox, 18; Pax, 15; Zahara, 14; Shiloh, 13; and twins Knox and Vivienne, 11.
The four-time Golden Globe winner went on to share that one of the biggest lessons of being a grandfather is that “every child is unique.”
“They all have something special, and what you want to do is provide them with the tools to express that,” Voight noted.
While attending the event, Voight also expressed admiration for Pitt, who is nominated for best supporting actor in a motion picture for his role in Once Upon a Time…In Hollywood.
“I am proud of Brad, and that was a very unusual movie, and a very successful one, a very dynamic movie,” the actor said, going on to mention several of his friends who have also gotten nods.
“Of course, it’s nice to see my friends Joe Pesci and Al Pacino,” he said. “[Robert] De Niro wasn’t up this year, but he’ll probably get an Academy [Award] or who knows, you never know. But, they’re all brilliant.”
