I suddenly had Bell’s palsy six months before my divorce.”
Jolie said she currently has “no real social life” living in Los Angeles because of the unwanted attention she receives whenever she leaves the house. Not that she pays any attention to what is written about her in the press.
“I’ve been here for so long and everything has been said,” the actor said.
