ANGELINA JOLIE TO SCATTER MOMS ASHES

Angelina Jolie will scatter her mother's ashes in the Bahamas, it has been reported.The actress chose the secret spot in the idyllic cluster of islands because mother Marcheline Bertrand ( Left With Angelina In 2001) loved spending time there. A source told Britain's Daily Mirror newspaper: "It was one of her favorite places, so Angelina wants this to be special."Marcheline, who lost her lengthy battle with cancer on January 27, was with Angelina and her partner Brad Pitt when she passed away aged 56 on Saturday. It was revealed earlier this week that Marcheline died happy in the knowledge her daughter had finally found love and stability. A source told Us Weekly magazine: "Everybody cried. Marcheline told Angelina and Brad that she loved them. It was incredibly emotional."Marcheline approved of their relationship completely and Brad loved her."When Angelina's daughter Shiloh was born last year, Marcheline - who had small roles in 80s movies 'Lookin' to Get Out' and 'The Man Who Loved Women' - said: "My heart is overflowing with joy with the new arrival of Brad andAngelina's third child. Maddox, Zahara and Shiloh are deeply loved children."I love Brad, he is wonderful."

ANGELINA JOLIE'S MOTHER PASSES AWAY

Angelina Jolie's mother Marcheline Bertrand (Right) has died. Marcheline, who had been battling ovarian cancer for more than seven years,was with her son James Haven, Angelina and her partner Brad Pitt when she passed away aged 56 on Saturday. Angelina dashed across America to be with her mother when she heard her condition had worsened. She arrived at her mother's bedside in Los Angeles' Cedars-Sinai Medical Center at 4pm on Saturday, four hours before Marcheline died at 8pm. Marcheline had small roles in 1982 movie 'Lookin' to Get Out' and 'The Man Who Loved Women' in 1983. It is unlikely that Angelina would have contacted her estranged father Jon Voight in the wake of her mother's death, as the pair haven't spoken for five years.Voight walked out on Marcheline when Angelina was a baby, leaving Marcheline to bring up their children alone.When Angelina's daughter Shiloh was born last May, Marcheline said: "My heart is overflowing with joy with the new arrival of Brad and Angelina's third child. Maddox, Zahara and Shiloh are deeply loved children. They have very kind and caring parents who love and support each other in every way."A private funeral has been planned for Marcheline. The family have requested no flowers or gifts - donations can be made to the Women's Cancer Research Institute at Ceders-Sinai.
