Angelina Jolie is about toleave Los Angelesfor good, as a decision unlocked when her twins come of age, as her voice starts to suggest something more about adeeper stance against Trump-era America.

The key moment is on 12th July, when twins Vivienne and Knox both turn 18.

'I don't recognise my country,' was a pointed jab at the current administration, the 50-year old Academy Award-winning actress said.

The law now allows Jolie to take full custody, and she is free from the legal shackles that held her in the Hollywood town that she was tied to for years.

'She'll be so happy when she can leave Los Angeles,'one source told Peoplelast December 2025.

The alteration in custody rules removes a long-held restriction. Prior to the twins growing up, Jolie's absence from L.A. was a compromise.

She 'never wanted to live in L.A. full -time,' the same source added, citing the need to be present for the children.

When she talked toThe Hollywood Reporter in 2024, the actress was very clear, 'When you have a big family, you want them to have privacy, peace, safety. I have a house now to raise my children, but sometimes this place can be...that humanity that I found across the world is not what I grew up with here.'

She plans to divide her time between home and international ventures.

'I'll spend a lot of time in Cambodia. I'll spend time visiting my family members wherever they may be in the world,' she added.
