They Still Hate Daddy

angggee.jpg

Angelina Jolie's brother, James Haven, is feature in the November issue of Marie Claire magazine. And he uses the article as an opportunity to bash their estranged father, Jon Voight.

James tells Marie Claire, "I don't want to constantly berate my father. I wish him well, and I hope he finds peace  but he put my mom through years of mental abuse, and it made me care especially for abandoned women and
children. So that's my religion - helping widows and orphans."

In a statement first released exclusively to Life & Style magazine, Jon Voight responds to his son's comments, saying, "I find it very heartbreaking that my children want to paint a bad guy portrait of me. I feel it comes from their inability to let go of years of programmed anger from their mother, who understandably felt quite hurt when we divorced.

In all truth, I tried to give him and their mother continuous love and support and large sums of money. God knows, for years I've tried to mend this relationship. Perhaps the trauma of their mother's passing has made it worse. I continuously send them my heart and love and am always available to them for whatever they need from me."

You guys! Cut it out!

Can't we all just get along???

For the sake of Shiloh!

      i agree with perez when he says for the sake of shiloh.

      i personally didn't have the opportunity to meet my grandfather because he passed away before we got the chance to travel to the middle east and i really wish i met him. jon is getting old and she really should know her grandfather before, god forbid, something happens to him.

      The only people who know the truth are the three of them. Perhaps they have a very good reason to separate from their father. From my experience, children don't tend to cut parents out of their lives for something small.

      God how sickening. Widows and orphans? Is this idiotic spin supposed to make us feel empathy for him and his equally gross sister? Those two dumbasses need to get over themselves. They'll feel guilty after daddy's gone, but then they can just milk that for PR, too.

      She travels around the world telling countries who have been feuding for centuries to make nice…but she won't even forgive her own Father who just may have been just a TAD unfairly portrayed by a bitter ex-wife. PLEASE.

      If she weren't Voigt's daughter…she'd be another starving starlet right now. When she first made that movie, GIA…which I think was her first…he CONSTANTLY talked about her on every show he went on saying how great she was…that she was the real deal and how proud he was of her.

      She's so ungrateful…She'll have her payback.

      Angelina is a disgusting slut, hor pig. she breaks up marriages then talks shit about her father. She should look in the mirror - she is sad. The only reason Brad fell for her and is with her is becuz of the kids. He's really regretting that too. He is stuck now. She needs a lip job!!

      There could be truth in what Voight Sr. says. Vindictive divorcees are not above painting a one-sided picture. Anyway, She's gone (RIP), and he's here, and they'll benefit most by setting this aside. He COULD be the wronged one, at least partially, but no one considers that. Everyone always aligns with mommy regardless. They need to value John while they still have him.

      Take it from someone who has a fucking psycho father who is always the victim–if the kids both say to leave them alone, he should shut the fuck up and stop talking to the media. What a piece of shit to try and force them to have a relationship with him.

    35. JamesIsAFreak says – reply to this


      35

      What has James done to deserve the cover of a magazine except to cash in on his sister/ex lover's fame. My father abandoned me and my family at the ripe old age of 8 and I dealt with it and as an adult I have moved on. James needs to shut the fuck up. If he doesn't care about him then why does he keep talking about him. He is just trying to bank another 10-15k for a dumb inane interview with a magazine. Get a real job freak and stop sponging of the careers of your lover sister Angelina and your father. I guess your mother never taught you the power of forgiveness.

      I feel sorry for the dad…he is constantly trying to mend fences with his two kids. It is hard to take Angelina seriously in her "compassionate person" role when she snubs her own father. Whatever happened is in the past…believe it not …people make mistakes. Just like Angelina hooking up with Brad while he was married to Jennifer. James & Angie…grow up!

      Poor James - it sounds like their mother did them no favors regarding her references to their father. This is why you never speak ill to children about the other parent. One dies and then the other is left with the unhealthy mess.
      James and John obviously have much talking to do and hearts to mend. John sounds very loving and open armed, and those kids need to stop wasting any more time while they still have him. The truth is prob. somewhere in the middle.

      45

      To me it has nothing to do with divorce why they still "hate" their father, but EVERYTHING to do with trying to not look like the products of hollywood nepotism that they ARE!!! Do they honestly think for one iota of a second they would be in their current acting career situations if it WASN`T for their father?? If it wasn`t for their father opening doors for them, both of these spoiled punks would be making B movies while waiting tables.

      Spoiled little rich kids need to grow the fuck up. Plenty of people had much harder childhoods than these two Beverly Hills Brats could ever imagine and don't go around disowning thier parents. GET OVER IT. GROW THE FUCK UP. This is one thing that really bothers me about Angeline Jolie. You'd think after destroying another woman's marraige, wrecking her home and getting herself knocked up by the ABANDONED woman's husband, she'd have a little insight into her father's infidelity.

      First of all - - - that photo is so entirely inappropriate! (lack of judgement) - would you wear a tank top with your nips on display while with your Dad and brother?! Ugh! What was she thinking?? (she was not)
      Her father was famously abusive - rumor is that it was much more than verbal abuse (icky stuff)
      Angelina has never recovered, nor has her brother.
      She has few, if any, friends; they are often "freaks/misfits" themselves.
      She shows consistent signs of Borderline Personality Disorder.
      Do you think that even one psychiatric evaluation or exam was done on her for even one of her adoptions?
      Of course not.
      Can you take a guess what they would find?
      So why does she keep getting permission to adopt?
      $$$$
      And Brad Pitt has chased fame and every woman who could get him there.
      He is now permanently enshrined.
      For all the wrong reasons.
      Take their children away!
      Or simply chain them to a permanent residence to give those innocent children the chance for some balance and sense of safety & security
      Oh, if only the Nannies could talk!!

      Good for Angie and her bro. There's no way they'd still be pissed off at their dad unless he treated them pretty horrifically. He was rumored to be cruel, neglectful, abandoning–and I often wonder if he was sexually abusive or a substance abuser. Their mom died–if dad was even semi-okay, then they'd want to be around their only living parent. Besides, kids don't woe barely there parents anything. I'm sure that now Angie's richer and more successful than him, he'll spend time with here. What could she possibly need from him? I admire her for not playing it politically correct. Doesn't anyone remember his antics on TV when she could have lost custody of Maddox for his the remarks he made about his own daughter? He was great in Midnight Cowboy, but he's so obviously a big ass.

      68

      Weren't Angie and her dad hitting up the red carpet together and starring in movies together only a few years ago?

      Life is way too short to hold grudges against parents. I'm sure that their dad has hurt them in the past, but he seems very open and willing to try and make amends for his mistakes. I lost my dad at 19, and it pisses me off when people (especially celebrities) estrange themselves from their parents for stupid petty shit, especially people like Angelina and her creepy brother and her brother who are all about family togetherness and blah. blah. blah.

      Uggggh. I so should be working right now.

      Jion Voight is the only sane one in that dirty family.

      He probably divorced their whore mother bcuz he couldn't take her nasty drugged up lifestyle anymore, then she got the kids & brainwashed them against their father ( as often happens in divorce )

      Angelina is obviously a fuck up looking for constant attention, whoring herself, then adopting the world's garbage.

      Her brother is a little bitch who changed his last name out of spite & to show his dad he identifies more with women than men.

      Is it just me or was he fine with him in the picture. Does he share a collective brain with his sister or what? I guess when she decides to bury the hatchet he will too because, obviously, his feud with daddy began when Angelina's did. Then again, maybe he's getting more $$$ from her than good ol' dad.

      I think this shows their mentality and emotional immaturity. Their father wants to do what ever he can to be there for them, but they want to dwell in the past. They need to forgive him because this is the only parent they've got…and it's not healthy to hold grudges. Plus grandparents can play vital roles in kids lives…I know mine did…and their kids can be missing out on alot.

      Re: Bel – I completely agree about brad & angelina's FOUR children. Didn't he put on this whole broken hearted grandfather act because he hasn't seen Shiloh, his "first" grandchild. Obviously, the rest aren't worthy of him. And what's with the "large sums of money" why would you have to add that statement, wouldn't it be covered under "support"

      81

      Sometimes you shouldn't see relatives. My father-in-law was/is physically abusive with kids and sexually weird–my son found an S&M book with pix there when he was little and a few other things. I never let my kids spend time there. If something happened to them, I would have been responsible–and it was the best thing I did. If JV is abusive to Angies' kids as he was to them growing up, why should she have in her life? He could scar the kids.
      Sorry Jon wants them to need him now. Too bad he wasn't there when he was supposed to be. And Angie's mom is dead–and JV is still blaming her for his bad relationships with his kids. As for who knows who's telling the truth? Voight was never there for them–and actions speak more truth than words.

      Boo hoo- crimony. Do these dumbasses ever STOP complaining? Tons of people have crap relationships with parents, but they don't constantly act like it is the worst thing that could ever have happened. Grow up for crissakes and act like adults. Voight is obviously clueless as a father and a human, but the kids are chronic whiners. They had a great mother, evidently. Most foster kids have had NEITHER. And no money either. But they don't have the cache that foreign kids do. Celebutards is an understatement.

      Perez - I love your site but you have no idea what might have happened in their family. It would be difficult to have your Dad leave and watch your Mother suffer and they know better than you do what happened in that situation.

      Why in the world would you tell them to cut it out - family dynamics are complex at best. No family is immune to problems, they are just different.

      Assuming is not a good thing…

      Jon is a fucking old nasty creep who abused his children and his wife.
      So you people want him to be around his children and his grandchildren?
      Idiots.
      He is an abuser and doesn't even know the names of his grandchildren.
      Fuck the whole world knows more about his grandchildren than he does.
      This old goat blows and he needs to stay the fuck away.
      Leave them alone they want nothing to do with you!

      I think they need to stop talking about it. It's boring. But the thing is, sometimes a man is just a sperm donor not a father. They need to move on now. They are all finally and irrevocably adults. And you cannot pick your relatives, only your friends. So Enuf! It probably irksJon Voight no end that his daughter especially is successful, is out there in the public eye, and is receivinv more attention then he did on his best days. He is a respected character actor. He won his Oscar. So, no, Jon. Somethings you just keep paying for. This is one of them. Move on.
