Angelina Jolie has admitted she was terrified during the birth of her daughter Shiloh.
Angelina Jolie has admitted she was "terrified" during the birth of her daughter, Shiloh Nouvel.
In an interview with CNN, to mark World Refugee Day, the Hollywood star said: "You know, because you're there for the birth, which I wasn't for my first two kids, you're just suddenly terrified that they're not gonna take a first breath. That was my whole focus. I just wanted to hear her cry."
In a second interview, this time with Forbes magazine, Angelina Jolie spoke about ensuring all her children feel equal in the family.
"It's different to say that you choose to bring a child into existence. I didn't choose to bring my two adopted children to life."
"Strangely enough, I was concerned about, and I have been making a point recently to give my adopted children more attention. But I feel now I love them equally... and I am very lucky that I am not a single parent."
"I can't imagine how difficult it is for mothers who have to go back to work so soon."
Angelina Jolie gave birth to Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt on May 27 at a private clinic in the resort town of Walvis Bay in Namibia.
The baby, healthy and weighing 7 pounds, was delivered by Caesarean section.
