A day before admitting to the press how difficult her life has been recently, Angelina Jolie appeared to show the strain on a Disneyland outing.
Having dropped her eldest son Maddox at his Korean university earlier in the week, Angelina took her four youngest children to celebrate at the happiest place on earth.

But there appeared to be tension between the actress and her daughters, Zahara, 14, and Shiloh, 13, as they became embroiled in a heated discussion.
The following day Angelina appeared at Disney’s D23 Expo, where she revealed how challenging her life has been in recent times, apparently alluding to her drawn-out and often bitter divorce and custody case with Brad Pitt.
She told E! News how “these last few years haven’t been the easiest, and I haven’t felt very strong”, adding, “There’s something when you’re not feeling very strong, where you push yourself,” as she discussed her roles in the coming Marvel’s The Eternals and Maleficent: Mistress of Evil.
Angelina continued, “I’m so grateful that I have the opportunity to play these kind of characters, that pull out every bit of strength I have and that remind me that I can be strong.”
She added that it was helpful she was having to undertake a lot of physical training for the new parts, explaining, “Sometimes you really feel low and you gotta pull it back up.”
