• Angelina Jolie opened up about how her life has changed since she and Brad Pitt broke up.
• She also debuted green hair in the new issue of Harper’s Bazaar.

After Brad Pitt allegedly got into an altercation with his and Angelina Jolie’s son Maddox Jolie-Pitt, they announced they were separating. That was three years ago, and while they technically aren’t divorced just yet, they’re still moving toward finalizing it. And in a new interview with Harper’s Bazaar, Angelina wrote about what her life has been like the past few years and how her kids are helping her move on.

Amid debuting her new green hairdo (it’s probably a wig, but I’m still shook!), Angelina opened up about her “free-spirited, bold side” and whether she still identifies with that after everything she’s been through. She shared:

“My body has been through a lot over the past decade, particularly the past four years, and I have both the visible and invisible scars to show for it. The invisible ones are harder to wrestle with. Life takes many turns. Sometimes you get hurt, you see those you love in pain, and you can’t be as free and open as your spirit desires. It’s not new or old, but I do feel the blood returning to my body.”

The Maleficent actor and mother of six also said that despite everything she’s been through in recent years, her kids have helped her “find it [her true self] again and to embrace it.” She added, “The part of us that is free, wild, open, curious can get shut down by life. By pain or by harm. My children know my true self…They have been through a lot.”

Speaking of her children, Angelina said she encourages them to travel and explore the world and different ideas. At the moment, she said she had to pause on doing so herself because of her situation with Brad. She explained, “I would love to live abroad and will do so as soon as my children are 18. Right now I’m having to base where their father chooses to live.”

In the meantime, she’s committed to working to help people feel free and chase their goals. Her parting advice: “Find your oxygen, your originality, your own voice. Live more fully. Rebel. Resist. Question. Be curious. Explore. Go outside what is comfortable to you.”
