Vivienne Jolie, 18, has revealed she was hospitalized for an eating disorder earlier this year.

Vivienne Jolie, 18-year-old daughter of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, has revealed she was hospitalized for an eating disorder at the beginning of this year. She disclosed her experience in a statement accompanying an art exhibition in Los Angeles titled 'The Tulip Field'.

In her statement, Vivienne wrote that she had struggled with mental health and an eating disorder. During her hospitalization, she felt 'angry, sick, and very alone'. However, she credited the kindness and warmth of other young patients and hospital staff with helping her through the difficult period. She described it as 'the worst and best time of my life'.

Vivienne's artwork at the exhibition depicted her and fellow patients as tulips. She wrote that the paintings represent moments spent in the hospital, and that the other children there 'taught me how to be strong when you are at your weakest'. A source told Page Six that Vivienne hoped sharing her story would help others feel less alone and encourage them to seek help.
