Angelina Jolie Says She 'Loves Being in Menopause'
LatestIn March of this year, Angelina Jolie revealed she underwent surgery involving the removal of her ovaries and fallopian tubes to lessen her chances of ovarian cancer. Jolie’s mother, Marcheline Bertrand, passed away from the disease in 2007 and the actress wanted to be proactive about her health. The procedure forced her into early menopause, which she said she is happy about.
“I actually love being in menopause,” Jolie said in an interview with the Daily Telegraph. “I haven’t had a terrible reaction to it, so I’m very fortunate.” The 40-year-old also described herself as feeling more “settled” now that she’s older. “I feel happy that I’ve grown up. I don’t want to be young again,” she said.
