Angelina Jolie has addressed her very public divorce from Brad Pitt.

“It’s just been the hardest time, and we’re just kind of coming up for air,” the 42-year-old actress told Vanity Fair. 

She also touched on the impact the divorce has had on their loved-ones. “We’re all trying to do our best to heal our family.”

Jolie and Pitt ended their marriage after 12 years together in September last year. And while fans were shocked by the news, she admits that their union was hindered as she filmed her latest directorial effort First They Killed My Father in Cambodia last year.

“Things got bad,” says Jolie. “I didn’t want to use that word. . . . Things became ‘difficult.’ ”

When quizzed about what she misses most about her ex-husband, Jolie admits that moving proved to be a challenge as design “was always Brad’s thing.”

Jolie’s new home, an 11,000-square-foot LA-based which includes 6 bedrooms and 10 baths, was furnished in part by a set-decorator friend.

The living room is outfitted with two cozy white sofas and several large throw pillows. “I didn’t even know I needed throw pillows,” Jolie admits.
