She may have made a name for herself playing strong and stoic female leads, but Angelina Jolie has hinted that in real life, her drawn-out divorce from ex Brad Pitt left her feeling “broken” and “overwhelmed”.

The actress, 45, opened up during an interview to promote her new movie Those Who Wish Me Dead – revealing she connected with the themes in the film after having endured her own emotional trauma in recent years.

“We all have times in our lives where we feel broken, and I was in a period like that. I’ve had my share of things that made me feel … you know, hard to speak too much about it, but just overwhelming or broken,” she shared with Entertainment Tonight. “I’ve had this many times in my life … It’s a part of something when you feel you just want to kind of hide under the covers or you’re not sure what you got left in you.”
