Angelina Jolie dons hot pink gown in rare public appearance

Angelina Jolie has appeared in public for one of the first times since her split from Brad Pitt in September last year.

The 41-year-old actress arrived in Cambodia for the premiere of Netflix film, First They Killed My Father. Jolie, who directed the harrowing tale, brought along her six children to meet the King of Cambodia.

She took a break from her usual black, instead opting for a pink chiffon gown that showed off her many back tattoos. Her hair was pulled back into a slick chignon with diamond studs proving to be her only accessories.

Earlier in the day, Jolie appeared at a press conference for the drama dressed in a simple black lace dress. Her make-up was kept minimal to match her effortless waves.

The trip is particularly poignant for Jolie as her eldest child, Maddox, was adopted from a Cambodian orphanage back in 2002.

Before the screening, she spoke of her high-profile family troubles to the BBC, saying: “My whole family have all been through a difficult time. My focus is my children, our children.”

“We are and forever will be a family. I am coping with finding a way through to make sure that this somehow makes us stronger and closer.”
