In 1993, Angelina Jolie's father Jon Voigt started playing the character of Woodrow F. Call in Return to Lonesome Dove. In 1996, Jonny Lee Miller took over the role and later that same year, he married Angelina, transmogrifying his predecessor into his father-in-law.
That marriage of course went a-swirlin' in the toilet and then in 2002, when Voigt told Angelina she should seek help for mental problems, Angelina stopped talking to him.
So by the time Brad Pitt got around to dumping his wife Jennifer Aniston in full view of the world, his nascent relationship with Angelina Jolie was as full of baggage as a Louis Vuitton store, if not quite as classy.
Reports are that Angelina has reached out to Brad's Jenn-loving clan and won them over one by one with lavish gifts and trips to luxurious spas in Mexico, while Brad convinced Jon Voigt to bury the hatchet and start talking with Angelina again.
Wagging tongues say that before the broadcast of Jenn's interview with Oprah, Brangelina were wondering "what that bitch, America's sweetheart, would say,' however, the show came and went and what garnered most attention about it was the public apology to Oprah from a Hermes executive, contrite after Oprah was shut out of a luxe boutique after hours.
Last week, Star told us that Angelina and Brad both are none too thrilled that Jennifer tells all and sundry about the pain in her heart that resulted from Brad sticking a knife in it. Now they tell us that Angelina was seen in a Beverly Hills boutique collecting a platinum bracelet for her adopted daughter Zahara imprinted with the words: "To Zahara from Mommy, Daddy and Maddox." What's more, they say Brad has already consulted with lawyers and set in motion the process of having himself named as adoptive father of both Maddox and Zahara. Sort of makes Jenn's denial that the reason for her marital meltdown was her lack of willingness to have children look as flimsy as the WMD in Iraq argument. (By Scott Rose)
