She’s recently been spending time in Rome while directing new movie Without Blood.
And it seems Angelina Jolie has brought her children along for the trip too, as she was spotted enjoying a day out with daughters Vivienne, 13, and Zahara, 17 – even meeting up with pal Salma Hayek later on.
The Hollywood star, 47, donned a flowing sand maxi dress and high-waist trouser co-ord for the outing, with a spaghetti strap detail, showing off her tattoo decorated arms and upper back.

Angelina shares Zahara and Vivienne with ex-husband Brad Pitt, in addition to their four other children; Maddox Chivan, 20, Pax Thien, 18, Shiloh Nouvel, 16, and Knox Léon, 13.
Following a tumultuous separation, she and Brad are still fighting a custody battle over their brood of six – despite filing for divorce six years ago.
With reports claiming that Angelina will ‘never agree to joint custody’, a source told Us Weekly: ‘It’s very clear to him that Angie has gone out of her way to delay and stall the process. All he can do is work with his legal team and file the paperwork whilst responding to her claims. Month after month goes by with one piece of red tape after another, endless jumping through hoops and bickering between their lawyers with no resolution.’

Angelina has decided to focus on directing and producing at the moment, as she has been spotted on set for her new project Without Blood in the last few weeks.
Without Blood is based on the international-bestselling novel of the same name by Italian writer Alessandro Baricc – with Angelina set to write, direct and produce it.
Speaking after the film was announced, Angelina said: ‘I’m honoured to be here in Italy to bring this very special material to film, and to have been entrusted by Alessandro Baricco with the adaptation of his book — with its unique poetry and emotion and way of looking at war, and the questions it poses about what we search for after trauma or loss or injustice’.
