Angelina Jolie: I feel so much more for my adopted kids

Actress thinks daughter Shiloh has had less to deal with

Wednesday, 14 May 2008

Angelina Jolie admits she has stronger feelings for her adopted kids than her daughter Shiloh.

The actress thinks Maddox, 7, Pax, 4, and Zahara, 3, have had more to deal with in their short lives.

‘I think I feel so much more for Maddox and Zahara because they are survivors,’ she explains.

‘Shiloh seems so privileged from the moment she was born, I have less inclination to feel for her.

‘I met my other kids when they were six months old, they came with a personality. A newborn really is this…blob!’

But Ange, 32, says she’s careful not to treat Shiloh, who turns 2 this month, differently.

‘I have to make sure that I don’t ignore her needs, just because I think the others are more vulnerable,’ she tells OK!

Ange adopted Maddox from Cambodia in 2002. Three years later, she took on Zahara, who she met in an Ethiopian children's home.

Pax was abandoned at birth by his mum in Vietnam, so Ange adopted him in March last year.

She is thought to be expecting twins with partner Brad Pitt, 44, this summer.

i cant believe she could say such a thing about her own child. how dare she infact. How does she think her child is going to feel when shes older and finds out that her own mother felt more for her adopted kids than her, her own flesh and blood. And why is she having more kids if she "doesnt feel so much" for her own child...shes insane. :@

I admire angie so much, but to say that about her biological child is not wise at all, even if thats what she feels, she should keep to herself.

How on earth can she say that about her own baby? A baby isn't a BLOB, it's a human baby, she goes on about Shiloh being privileged, but she's not if her mother feels like that about her! I agree with Jemma, how is Shiloh going to fel later on in life? Why is she having more kids if we prefers her adopted ones? She's a nasty piec of work and a show-off.
