When Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt married at their chateau in the South of France two years ago after a decade together, they both said they did it for their children.
Their six kids wanted the security of knowing mum and dad were married. 'We didn't realise how much it meant to them,' Brad said at the time.
And who can forget the pictures in Hello! magazine of the happy wedding party of eight, Angelina's gown poignantly hand-sewn with drawings from their children?
It wasn't just the nuptial couple who were cementing their commitment to each other; it was, as always with the Brangelina brand, a picture-perfect family affair.
Fast forward to this week and she is now accusing her husband of child abuse after he allegedly became 'verbally abusive' and 'physical' during an alcohol-fuelled altercation aboard their private jet.
Within days Jolie had filed for divorce claiming that it was for 'the health of my family'. Yes, suddenly it's 'my' family.
Yet while this modern-day humanitarian 'saint' — who's endlessly parading her bleeding heart credentials by piously visiting war zones and refugee camps — destroys her husband's reputation, shouldn't we look at her own record as a mum?
She adopted three children from war-torn countries — Maddox, now 15, Pax, 12, and Zahara, 11 — and went on to have three biological children with Pitt; Shiloh, ten, and twins Knox and Vivienne, eight.
None of them has been to school for any length of time and there are hair-raising accounts of them all running wild at home even though they had six nannies — one per child — along with a tutor and a cook. (Angelina was too busy feeding the world to play any role in the kitchen.)
According to one nanny, Maddox was drinking wine and driving a car round the grounds aged nine while the kids developed an unhealthy obsession with weapons and martial arts.
Oh yes, and their daughter Shiloh has been cross-dressing since the tender age of three-and-a-half and was decked out as a boy at the Brangelina wedding.
The one time the kids seem to be pulled into line is when they are hauled off on regular visits to war-torn countries with mum in her role as a UN ambassador — Maddox was even taken to a refugee camp in Iraq for his eighth birthday present.
Angelina says she wants them to be global citizens and believes the trips are good for their development.
But isn't the truth that this is all about developing her own global image — transforming it from a moderately successful actress to selfless saint, bestowing munificence on the poor and needy? And using the children to do so?
The kids she too often leaves others to care for at home seem merely to be toys she pulls out of the cupboard to burnish her moral standing on the global stage. And yet she's the one accusing Brad Pitt of child abuse!

Angelina Jolie Accused Of Being An 'Ice-Queen' Mother To Her Six Children!
August 3, 2011
According to a new report, Angelina doesn’t really pay attention to her brood, ignores Shiloh the most and lets the nannies do all the work!
Angelina Jolie portrays herself as a woman who can do it all — be an award-winning actress, humanitarian, loving partner to Brad Pitt and amazing mother to their children, Maddox, Zahara, Pax, Shiloh and twins Knox and Vivienne. So how does she manage everything? Well, according to In Touch, she uses nannies and hardly ever parents her kids!
“She’s preoccupied; she doesn’t have a lot of time for them,” an insider tells In Touch. The magazine even describes her as an “ice-queen” mom!
And of all the kids — Shiloh gets the least amount of attention. “During a game of war with her brothers, Shiloh fell down and got bruised,” the insider explains, adding that Angelina didn’t do anything about it! “She let a nanny handle it.”
“Her parenting just isn’t as warm and fuzzy as Brad’s,” another source reveals.
But Angelina works hard to make sure people think she’s a wonderful mother. “She spends her life trying to prove that she can give her family everything she missed out on as a child,” an insider says.

Prince Harry Wants to Make Princess Diana
by CORINNE HELLER |
It's been more than 18 years since the tragic death of Princess Diana and her children, Prince Harry and Prince William, are determined to carry on her legacy.
Diana, who was known for her humanitarian work worldwide, died in a car accident in Paris in 1997 when Harry was 12 and William was 15.
"All I want to do is make my mother incredibly proud," Harry, 31, told People in comments posted Wednesday. "That's all I've ever wanted to do."
"When she died, there was a gaping hole, not just for us but also for a huge amount of people across the world," he added. "If I can try and fill a very small part of that, then job done. I will have to, in a good way, spend the rest of my life trying to fill that void as much as possible. And so will William."
Prince William & Kate Middleton's Taj Mahal Visit Gives Princess Diana Her Happily Ever After
The prince made his comments at Kensington Palace just before he left for the 2016 Invictus Games in Orlando, which begin on May 8. Harry is a royal patron of the annual Paralympic-style sporting event for ill and wounded military servicemen and women and veterans from around the world. Both he and his brother work with many charities and humanitarian initiatives.
"I hope that a lot of my mother's talents are shown in a lot of the work that I do," Harry told Good Morning America in March.
In 2006, Harry co-founded the Sentebale organization in African kingdom of Lesotho. The group aims to help local children in need, including thousands affected by HIV and AIDS. Diana was known for her work to help promote HIV/AIDS awareness and made headlines when she was photographed meeting and even embracing patients, which many considered shocking at the time, as people were not as educated about the disease.
Last December, Harry visited a hospital for HIV patients that the princess had supported and highlighted how his mother helped break the stigma around the illness when she kissed an AIDS patient there, BBC News reported.
"I enjoy what I do. But I don't do things because I feel as though my mother would want me to do them," Harry told People. "I know I've got a lot of my mother in me. I am doing a lot of things that she would probably do."
Like Diana, William, 33, supports the organization Centrepoint, which helps homeless youth, and the Child Bereavement U.K., a charity his mother helped launch in 1994. The group supports families when a child dies or is dying, or when a child is facing bereavement.
"Twenty-one years ago last month, my mother attended the launch of the Child Bereavement Charity," William told reporters in October. "Fifteen years later, I was honored to be invited to become Patron of Child Bereavement UK to continue my mother's commitment to a charity which is very dear to me."
"What my mother recognized back then, and what I understand now, is that grief is the most painful experience that any child or parent can endure," he said. "As a father to two young children myself, I now appreciate it all the more."
