Angelina, Brad Pitt Wrote Love Letters to Each Other While Apart: 'It Was Romantic'
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt wrote love letters to one another while they were forced apart for work.
The Hollywood power couple recently spent several months working on opposite parts of the world and being away from each other was not easy. In a bid to keep their romance alive, Jolie, who directed "Unbroken" in Australia, and Pitt, who filmed "Fury" in London, used an old fashioned method to communicate.
Both films were based on World War II era events and they inspired the couple's idea to handwrite love letters to each other.
"He was supportive from a distance, and it was quite romantic in a way," Jolie told Australia's TV Week magazine.
"We decided to be of that time, when we could imagine he was in the European theater and I was in the Pacific theater, and we wrote handwritten letters to each other that were very connecting for us, thinking of the people that were separated for months, if not years, at a time back then," she explained.
The couple, who began dating in 2005, is said to be more in love than ever more than two years after they got engaged.
In a recent interview the "Maleficent" actress revealed that she and Pitt do intend to wed at some point and that their children have been throwing around wedding ideas. They share six children Maddox, 12, Pax, 10, Zahara, 9, Shiloh, 7, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 5.
"We will get married, and we're not in a rush, so we're just waiting for it to be the right time with the kids, with work, when it feels right," Jolie said.
"We talk about it occasionally, and the kids talk about it with us," she continued. "We all kind of think about how we imagine it or what it might be. So we've started to do that but we haven't made any definite plans."
