Angelina Jolie has revealed she struggled with breastfeeding her twins, Knox and Vivienne, at the same time.
In an interview on GMTV, the star told Fiona Phillips, “You think, ‘If anybody can do that, I can do that.”
“But it’s a lot harder than it looks in the books. I did that a few times, but [mostly] I would take turns. It just takes a long time.”
Despite attempting the ‘football hold’ she had read about in manuals, she said she stopped breast feeding them at three months, revealing it was ‘about as much as I could do’.
She also revealed that it was while filming The Changeling that she fell pregnant.
“We decided to start trying in the beginning, and by the end I was.”
The star was adamant, however, that marriage is not important.
“We jumped into being a family first. And that just seems like the biggest commitment you can possibly make. It doesn’t feel like anything’s lacking.”
