A-list actors Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie ended their relationship in 2016 after 11 years together and two years of marriage, but they’ll always be Dad and Mom to their six kids: Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, Vivienne, and Knox.

Jolie adopted two of their children (Maddox and Zahara) before her relationship with Pitt (he later adopted them both as well), and they added another four kids from 2006 to 2008.

While they don’t publicly post about their kids and the kids don’t have public social media accounts, we’ve still been able to watch the family grow.

Pitt and Jolie’s six kids have rapidly grown up before our eyes between movie premieres, red carpets, public outings, and going off to college.

Jolie reflected on the importance of her kids in her life in a Sept. 27 interview with Vogue. “I was 26 when I became a mother,” she said. “My entire life changed. Having children saved me — and taught me to be in this world differently. I think, recently, I would’ve gone under in a much darker way had I not wanted to live for them.”

The Oscar winner added, “They’re better than me, because you want your children to be. Of course I’m the mother, and hopefully that safe place for them and that stability. But I’m also the one that they laugh at — and I see them taking over so many different aspects of our family.” Jolie also shared that when the family does red carpet appearances together, she doesn’t force any of the kids to attend or to dress up. “I don’t tell the kids how to dress,” she said.
