An emotional Angelina Jolie sent her golden boy son Maddox off to college in South Korea—and RadarOnline.com has obtained photos and video of the scene.
Angelina and her 18-year-old son with ex-husband Brad Pitt were surrounded by students who filmed her leaving him at the dorms at the Yonsei University in South Korea.
In a video posted online, Angelina confirmed that it was the day “I drop him off,” and candidly told the crowd, “I know, I’m trying not to cry.”
The video obtained by RadarOnline.com shows the Maleficent actress on the campus wearing a skimpy black tank top and black pants while Maddox is next to her with his hair in a ponytail.
“It’s really really exciting,” Angelina said about her oldest son leaving the nest after living with her since she adopted him from Cambodia when he was just seven-months-old.
Brad was nowhere to be seen as Maddox started college with only his mom dropping him off.
Angelina and Brad finally married in 2014 and ruled Hollywood's A List with Maddox and their five other kids, but have been going through a nasty divorce since 2016, after the actor and Maddox reportedly got involved in a fight on a private plane.
Since then, Maddox has been Angelina's man of the house.
Maddox has helped his mom take care of the other kids and been her shoulder to lean on.
But now, he is continuing his education overseas as his mother deals with her sadness at his leaving the nest.
