Angelina is in 'awe' of her daughter

Angelina adopted Zahara on a trip to Ethiopia in 2005 when she was 7 months old. On previous occasions, she has opened up about her daughter and how much she respects her. 

"My daughter is from Ethiopia, one of my children … And I have learned so much from her," said Angelina in a TIME 100 Talk in 2020. 

"She is my family, but she is an extraordinary African woman and her connection to her country, her continent, is her own and it’s something I only stand back in awe of."
