ANGELINA JOLIE has revealed she owns real versions of the guns she toted in the movie Tomb Raider and she and partner Brad Pitt wouldn’t be afraid to use them.
The actress, who was yesterday rumoured to have given birth to twin girls Isla and Amelie, says she and Pitt, 44, keep a firearm in their house to protect themselves and their expanding brood.
She is also planning to teach a martial art to their children, who already include Maddox, seven, Pax, four, Zahara, three, and Shiloh, two - so they can defend themselves. The actress, 32, who toted a 9mm Heckler & Koch handgun in Tomb Raider, today tells The Mail on Sunday’s Live magazine: “If anybody comes into my home and tries to hurt my kids, I’ve no problem shooting them. I bought original, real guns of the type we used in Tomb Raider for security. Brad and I are not against having a gun in the house, and we do have one. And yes, I’d be able to use it if I had to.” Angelina says that despite their rarefied upbringing as the offspring of two of Hollywood’s biggest stars, her children will be brought up knowing how to fight properly. “I think it’s good for anybody to learn a skill when it comes to fight training - be it kung fu, boxing or kickboxing because self-defence is important. Brad and I want our kids to learn it. They’re going to get into a fight some day, so they might as well learn how to take care of themselves.” She reveals she used to wade into fights to protect other children at school, despite being ‘kind of a punk’ and ‘a bit of a loner’.
She says: “I would get into fights on behalf of other people. I wasn’t a pushover.”
