Angelina Jolie: Angelina Jolie lost her mother nearly two years ago but doesn’t seem to have let herself take the time to really work through that grieving process. She’s not unique in trying to deal with tragedy and difficult feelings by staying busy and focusing on other people, it’s common. Unfortunately, dealing with loss this way often makes finding closure a much longer journey. Jolie’s superwoman image cracked a little recently when she was talking about how her mother influenced how she played her character in The Changeling. She has to keep it together for the sake of her kids, but she is only human and falls apart from time to time,” a longtime friend of Angelina tells OK!. “She is still a mess over Marcheline's departure, believing no one understands her the way her mother did.

Her partner Brad Pitt has especially helped her get through the dark times. “Brad has been her rock, and he will always be there for her,” the friend tells OK!. “Without his love, she would never have been able to cope.” Angelina also has drawn strength from her children, Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh and 4-month-old twins Knox and Vivienne, whose middle name honors Marcheline. “Mad tries to cheer her up and makes her laugh and smile,” reveals her friend. “She feels like she is the most privileged woman
