Angelina's Father Still Hoping to Meet Shiloh

You would think Jon Voight would have learned by now that trying to make headlines to see his daughter is not the right way to attempt a reconciliation. He has gone to the press before saying he hopes to meet his grandchildren but since he has no way to reach Jolie and she is not interested, he keeps talking about it in interviews.

Reports say she is still angry at him for cheating on her mom but I remember at one point she was mad since he called her crazy (in a manic sort of way). Saying she needed serious help. He also spoke about her private life which made it worse. This all went down around the time she adopted Maddox. She has said, "I don't hate him. I simply feel we only have so much energy in this life." Since Angelina has softened up since becoming a mom I would not be surprised if Jon does get his wish to meet his growing family. Supposedly Brad helped Jen reconcile with her mom so maybe he'll help Angelina do the same with her father.

    If he really wants Angie and the kids in his life, he needs to STOP TALKING TO THE PRESS. Sheesh. I'd snub him too.

    Funny how she is angry for him for cheating on her mom, YET she went and moved right on in before Brad's marriage was over and got herself pregnant as well ... How can she be anger ... Hypocrite if you ask me.

    This is so common in families, she should be mature enough to let him meet her kids. Then reconcile with him and talk it out. At least he is trying to reach out to be a grandfather.
    Who knows though he could be a real bugger of a dad.

    grandpa is a blabbermouth and that's why mommy doesn't want him around... and he didn't even send me a stuffed animal when I was born!

    And if he wants to meet his grandchildren that badly then he should get up off his butt, march on down to her house and knock on the door ... What is she going to do, call security and/or police?? Make an attempt and maybe she'll take him seriously ... ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS

    technically, aj wasn't the one who cheated in that situation. also, brad + jen had no children.

    blah, i don't know why i bother.

    i agree with imcurly. i know it may not be favorable to do these things in the public eye, but i kind of feel sorry for him. maybe he's just doing it so openly b/c she won't allow him in her life any other way. i've been in these kinds of situations before (with my mom, who's way irrational at times), and it's really hard to get someone to give you that first inch.

    I remember reading she was mad at him because he didn't acknowledge Maddox and Zahara as his grandchildren, but now that she's had Shiloh he's so eager to meet them. Their relationship has always been difficult, but it would be nice if they reconsiled before he died.

    AJ did not cheat with Brad, Brad and Jen were separated one or two years before they got together

    If it's true, Jolie being mad at her father because he cheated on her mother is outrageous! That is none of her business. Many marriages have infidelity - my father cheated on my mother, but when you become an adult, it is no longer your business. There has to be more as to why they aren't talking.

    Isn't her mom dying of cancer? If she knows life is short, why doesn't she let her father see his grandchildren because he's an older guy.

    Well her being angry about the mom thing is BS because she had a great relationship with him years after that. What's really upsetting her I think is that the jerk went on tv saying how crazy she is and crying about it to friggin access hollywood or whatever show. She could have lost custody of her kid and now he wants to be in her life? Ugh he better buy a clue. I don't blame her one bit for protecting her family. No one could ever do that to me and then be around my kids.

    i don't think it's outrageous to be angry with your dad for cheating on your mom...? it's your business because it's your family, even if you're not in the marriage...

    I can't answer that, because my father was never faithful. He is who he is, I don't hate him, I just don't think he is loyal as a partner ...

    Angelina should grow the F**K up and think about her kids instead of just herself ... I am SURE they would LOVE to have grandparents in their life like most children ....

    I think that your parents marriage is their marriage and that you should never get into their business, unless of course it becomes a violent marriage. Just think about it, would you like your parents getting inbetween your present relationship or marriage? Our would you like your kids chiming in your marriage?

    Its a sticky situation, and feeling will get hurt if you get inbetween people's person relationships. She is 31. Get over it. I'm sure her dying mother has better things to care about than the fact that her husband cheated on her decades ago!

    She needs to get over it. I have been estranged from my father for 15 years. If he would at least make an effort....I would take him up on it in a heartbeat. Grow up, Angie.

    I think it's unfair of any of us to past negative comments on her dad unless we have walked in his shoes. Perhaps there was a reason why he cheated- maybe her mother was as stubborn as Angelina and tortured him every single day. He should have gotten a divorce, but he didn't want to lose his daughter and maybe the mother siad, "If you leave me you'll never see your two kids again" .... We don't know the bottom line details, but people cheat for a reason .... There is a weak link, someone is not happy and the other refuses to acknowledge that. Like I said, my father was a BIG cheater and today I see why- my mother drove him nuts.

    I don't really care how AJ and Brad got together anymore, that's all played out, besides there were 'people' on the set saying they were all googly and touchy feely on the set of their mr.and mrs.smith movie, Jen was 'told' and went to see it for herself, but hey, Naaaaaaaa that wasn't the icing on the cake for divorce road.........
    EEEWWWWWWWW THAT'S her dad?? That dude has always given me the creeps, ugh! How could something so pretty come from him!? Who is her mom?
    If I adopted children and my family didn't accept them., well 'tata', what a jerk*

    without getting into details, my parents broke up 15 years ago and i haven't spoken to my dad more than 5 times since then, if that. i've tried to reconcile, my sister doesn't want to, but either way, i don't think there's a right or wrong in that situation...

    if someone hurts you to the point where you can't have them in your life without major drama, then i don't think there's anything wrong with protecting yourself from an emotionally abusive person...

    goodgirl -

    interesting. my father, the pious religious man that he is, cheated on my mother left + right + had the class to bring home the other women while my mother was in the other room, taking care of my brother + me. his infidelity was just another slap in the face to her-- he's hurt her in dozens of other ways. him cheating on her wasn't any great blow to their marriage, simply because their relationship is a farce-- always has been, always will be. they have no business being together + only got married cuz they had a kid. what a waste.

    goodgirl that was well stated. im gonna have to say that it should stay in the marriage that is between those two. if he harmed angelina than that is one thing but if it just him cheating i dont see how you could stay away from your father and keep your children from him. then again im def. a daddy's girl so i may be biased.

    there has got to be more to it than "he cheated on my mom". angie, grow up. crap happens, it's not your business and life goes on. sweet caroline, i agree. how can she hope to be a goodwill ambassodor when she can't forgive her dad and move on? it's not like she's completely innocent either, why is she holding such a grudge?

    Thanks caligirl1201, yep, she definately gets her looks from her mom!!! She looks NOTHING like that man!

    awwwww I'm sorry lil Shiloh punkin' ....hey, your mom's gorgeous! And gave a load of money to the poor!

    aaron~whoa! now THAT'S some drama, sorry to hear all that you went thru., it SUX!!! did you say he was religious?

    My dad was similar to yours aaron, and my mom left him, took us with her, when i was like 5, I didn't see him my whole life, then in 2002 I took the initiative to 'get to know him', for closures sake, (to me) and I just adored him, besides I'm not his judge....anyway, I only had 2 years with him, he died in '04 Sad anyway my point is that people change*

    I think he's doing this because this is possibly the only way she'll "hear" him. If she won't see him or speak to him, the public media will make sure she does.

    I hope they reconcile before it's too late.

    dare I ask 'what' religion he is? because if it's the same God i believe in, then he's committed one of the 'ultimate sins'...anyway not tryin' to turn this into a religious debate, just sayin' alot of people hide behind the word 'religious' to get away with th
