Angelina Jolie and actor father Jon Voight famously feuded for nearly after a decade after Voight, in 2002, accused his daughter of having “serious mental problems” and Jolie in turn criticized her father for having affairs behind her mother’s back.

Talking to the Daily Mail, Voight explained that his change of heart came in an instant, saying

“I suddenly saw things differently and everything shifted. That one moment changed my whole life. It gave me back my daughter and my family. Being reunited with my Angie is very precious to me.”

The 72-year-old actor continued,

“I adore my grandchildren, they are my great love. It makes me so emotional and grateful. When my daughter sees me with them she says she sees another energy in me which takes over. I’m always laughing and completely happy when I’m with them. It makes Angie so happy too, as you can imagine.”
