Mark Billingham on working with Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie
Mark 'Billy' Billingham has worked with Jolie and Pitt for a period of 18 months. His experience of working with the two taught him a lot and he was impressed with the couple’s time management skills, he told Woman’s Day in a recent interview. He also mentioned that the two were most concerned about who went near their children and the safety of their children.
The couple’s children and their safety were the most important to them and they were always concerned about them getting kidnapped as it is all about the money, said Billingham. The former couple has six children: Maddox, 19, Pax, 16, Zahara, 15, Shiloh, 14, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 12.
Billy explained how the now-divorced couple’s time management skills surprised him. He said that the two always had time to do everything, from work to their family life and charity. He added that working with them has taught him a lot and similarly even they learned from working with Billy; he said that the best part about working with them was the mutual respect that Jolie-Pitt and Mark had for each other.
