James Haven said his children are entering their twenties so he needs more support and attention. “It’s completely natural. I feel lucky to be with the children,” said the 52-year-old actor.

James Haven is the only brother of Angelina Jolie. From childhood to adulthood, the two brothers were always very close. During their youth, the two lived with their mother after their parents, actors Jon Voight and Marcheline Bertrand, divorced. Angelina and her brother took care of their mother until Marcheline passed away in 2007 from cancer.
James Haven got married in 2009 and has twin children, a boy and a girl. He used to pursue an acting career like other family members but retired in 2013.
