Angelina Jolie spent some quality time with her daughter Vivienne on Monday. The actress, 46, and her daughter, 13, walked arm in arm as they checked out different shops at The Grove in Los Angeles. The Tourist star wore a tight-fitting gray button down shirt and a beige skirt that ended at shin level. She walked in a pair of black flats and carried a purse with her that hung quite low from her right shoulder. The mother-daughter pair wore face coverings to the outdoor shopping center. The Wanted actress shares her daughter with her ex-husband Brad Pitt. The pair were married from 2014 to 2019. The couple have six children together. They had three biologically and adopted another three as well. Their six children are: Maddox, 20, Pax, 18, Zahara, 17, Shiloh, 15, and twins Vivienne and Knox, 13. After the divorce, a legal battle over custody began between the two stars who originally fell for one another while playing a couple on the action-comedy Mr. and Mrs. Smith. They are still fighting about custody of their four underage children as well as the properties they acquired together during their marriage. Jolie's appearance with Vivienne came just a few days after she appeared on NBC Nightly News to praise the reauthorization of the Violence Against Women Act, a federal law that was first passed in 1994. The act provided funding to investigate and prosecute cases where acts of violence were alleged against women. It also established the Office on Violence Against Women in the Justice Department. Jolie said the bill was 'personal to everyone' and has had her own experience with the family court system after accusing her ex-husband, Brad Pitt, of allegedly verbally and physically assaulting one of their six kids on a private plane in 2016. 'It is personal to everyone,' Jolie said. 'Everyone who cares about family, everyone who cares about children, everyone who cares about their own safety and the health of their community.'He was cleared of any wrongdoing after an investigation by both the Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services and the FBI. 'My children's health is my priority at this moment,' she added.

Angelina Jolie shared gripping photos of children in Ukraine to her Instagram on Tuesday, writing that the war will result in "trauma, lost childhoods and shattered lives" Angelina Jolie is sharing a pointed message about Russia's invasion of Ukraine.The actress, filmmaker and humanitarian, 46, posted a set of gripping photos to her Instagram on Tuesday amid the ongoing war.The carousel of images begins with a photo of a man and woman holding children as they wait to cross a river after escaping Irpin, Ukraine.The second picture is of a teenage boy lying in a hospital bed with his mother nearby as he was treated for his injuries following a Russian attack. The third image shows a young cancer patient hugging a man in the basement of a treatment facility that is serving as a bomb shelter."As well as the millions who've fled over Ukraine's borders, nearly 2 million people are displaced inside their country, many trapped by fighting, denied access to aid, and in direct physical danger," she captioned the post. "Without an end to the war children will pay the highest price — in trauma, lost childhoods and shattered lives." Jolie ended with a note for followers to "learn more" about the UN High Commissioner for Refugees, sharing the @refugees Instagram page.The Eternals star, who also serves as Special Envoy for the UNHCR, said last month that she is "praying for the people in Ukraine."She shared that her "focus along with my @refugees colleagues is that everything possible is done to ensure the protection and basic human rights of those displaced, and refugees in the region." "We have already seen reports of casualties and people starting to flee their homes to seek safety," said Jolie. "It is too soon to know what will happen, but the significance of this moment — for the people of Ukraine, and for the international rule of law — cannot be overstated."She also shared a link to the UNHCR's statement, which read, "We are gravely concerned about the fast-deteriorating situation and ongoing military action in Ukraine.""The humanitarian consequences on civilian populations will be devastating," it continued. "There are no winners in war, but countless lives will be torn apart." Russia's attack on Ukraine continues after their forces launched a large-scale invasion on Feb. 24 — the first major land conflict in Europe in decades. Details of the fighting change by the day, but hundreds of civilians have already been reported dead or wounded, including children. Millions of Ukrainians have also fled, the United Nations says.The invasion, ordered by Russian President Vladimir Putin, has drawn condemnation around the world and increasingly severe economic sanctions against Russia.With NATO forces massing in the region around Ukraine, various countries have also pledged aid or military support to the resistance. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy called for peace talks — so far unsuccessful — while urging his country to fight back.
