Brad Pitt is an emotional man
July 14, 2008 by Sherry
Birth may focus on the mother, but that doesn’t mean the dad doesn’t feel sentimental. According to Dr. Sussman at the Lenval hospital, Brad Pitt was “perfectly calm, totally determined, very pleased to be at the birth of his children, very moved and very emotional”. Aww. I love a man who can cry because his baby (or babies in this case) is being born.
He said that the birth was very straightforward with no complications and that Angelina Jolie had an epidural so she was very cheerful and talkative, laughing with Brad throughout.
Although the babies are doing just fine, Dr. Sussman didn’t give a specific day for the family to leave the hospital because in Europe the mother usually stays a little longer. With both my kids I was eager to go home by the end of the second day when I was being given the okay to leave, but after a day or two at home I found myself wishing I could go back so people were there to take care of me! So hopefully Angelina will get a decent amount of rest even though she’s probably fed up of the hospital walls by now and missing her kids at home.
Meanwhile, Brad spoke with the mayor of Nice not too long after helping to cut the umbilical cords of his babies. He told Mayor Estrosi that he is “the happiest father ever”. Apparently he was so incredibly happy that he kept saying the same thing over and over to everyone he spoke to.
The mayor himself signed the birth certificates at the hospital. Afterwards, he spoke to the Nice Matin newspapers and said, “[Brad] told me we chose one of the best hospitals in the world, one of the best doctors, one of the best medical teams. And also the most beautiful bay in the world.”
I can’t wait to see what the babies look like – I love babies!
Yay, Kim! So great that you sewed SW costumes – that’s a talent I don’t have. I’ve been on a mission from Yoda to spread the Gospel of Star Wars to my godsons, grand-nephews, etc. Hubby & I saw the SW costumes used in the movies – incredible! Especially Padme’s costumes – and Darth Vader. We saw it 2x!
But the neatest thing was my son Ryan (Half Nelson writer/director) staying overnight at SW fans’ Holy Grail – Skywalker Ranch. George was artist in residence at the L.A. Film Festival & he invited all the directors to a workshop at the Ranch! I volunteered to be Ryan’s assistant, but he didn’t go for it, LOL. Ryan did bring back a photo of him with George.
Hi, Kim – I’m under moderation again. It’s about Star Wars costumes & how my son Ryan ended up staying at Skywalker Ranch.
Merci beaucoup, Melodie (curtsying)! A very belated Happy Bastille Day! Bon chance on teaching the Jolie-Pitts French! I think U.S. English has lots of French & Spanish words in it, e.g. parlay/palaver/parles/palabra. Louisiana has a very strong French influence. I found out San Francisco has the biggest French Quarter (outside of New Orleans) & biggest Bastille Day celebration in the U.S. – I’ll have to go next year. I pick up a couple words here & there from French movies, and there’s French pastries & cuisine, lol. I want to go to France again (visited 3x) but our economy might seriously go into Depression. My husband might even have to put off retiring.
