Angelina Jolie's Mother Dies
Angelina Jolie is in mourning after her mother Marcheline Bertrand lost her battle with cancer on Saturday.
The former actress died Saturday afternoon at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles.
In a statement released by Angelina Jolie Sunday, the star revealed she, her partner Brad Pitt and brother James Haven were at the hospital when Bertrand, 55, passed away.
Bertrand, who was partly of native American descent, appeared in movies like 'Lookin' To Get Out' and 'The Man Who Loved Women,' but gave up her acting career to raise her kids as a single mom, after divorcing their father, actor Jon Voight, in 1978.
She always stayed on the fringes of Hollywood and produced the star-studded documentary 'Trudell' in 2005.
Angelina Jolie confirmed her mother was battling ovarian cancer last month, but confessed she expected her to win her fight with the disease.
In a TV interview with CNN talk show host Larry King, the actress revealed her mother was "doing good," adding, "She has fought for six years and she's a remarkable woman, she's very, very strong and her spirit remains unbroken."
