Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie plan on spending more time at their estate in the French Riviera because France's restrictions on paparazzi offer their family a "greater sense of normalcy," the actor said Wednesday.
In an interview with broadcaster ABC's Good Morning America, Pitt
said that the couple and their six children planned to split their
time between homes in New Orleans, Los Angeles and Miraval in the
south of France.
Collectively nicknamed Brangelina, the Hollywood power couple is
among the world's top targets for celebrity-watching boulevard media.
"They get more sense of normalcy there. We're not as hounded at
certain places there," he said. "France, especially - they have rules
about ... photographing kids. And I think they're more sensitive to
it after the Diana incident."
Strict regulations governing paparazzi were implemented in France
after Princess Diana, ex-wife of Britain's Prince Charles, was killed
in 1997 in Paris in a high-speed car crash as her driver attempted to
elude photographers.
Pitt said the French "think they're as cool as anyone else,"
meaning that they allowed his family members to get on with their
day.
"We're not being bothered" there, he said.
